Country Club of Gwinnett

Would love to say great things.... under new management they are working to make the conditions much better than what they have had in last several years. And maybe it is just too early in season yet for course to be in great shape, but for right now, I would give it some time before I return. Tee boxes were about as bad as I have ever seen on any course, because of the construction on many holes it was a mess and difficult to get around the course as they have a lot more cart path only restrictions.

The staff are all great! I think the grounds could be better kept, but over all I would golf here again.

First, hole 15 is a par 5 they are working on so it’s setup up as a pear 3. I didn’ know that until after I paid. No discount.

Second, overall the course is in rough shape.

It’s not worth what they are charging. It used to be $50, now $80 and is worse. In the current shape it’s not worth 50 either.

One hole was closed for renovations...#13. Number 15 was partially closed for renovations. It was a part 5 and they changed it to a part three.

I’m writing this while on the golf course.

There are 3 groups in front of me. 2-4 sums and 1 pair coming around 15 to the island par 3 16. This course is HORRIBLE. I paid $70 to wait for each shot on the tee, and a shot into the green for each hole on the back nine.

The fact that I’ve had the time to write this review DURING my round should give you more than enough info on how slow and poorly managed this place is.

The 2 photos I’ve attached are the two groups waiting to tee off on 16. I’m not quite sure why this place does NOT have rangers/marshalls enforcing pace of play. It’s quite frustrating to try to find a good place to play golf in the area, but subject to horrible tee boxes , entire holes that are closed (number 15, a par 5, is completely closed and they turned it into a par 3.. I par it so.. I got an eagle right? )

All in all, don’t come here to play golf. I’d say give it a year or two so this club can get their act together. This place is horrible and a waste of my time. I’ve played some really bad courses in my time .. but this is the top worst I’ve come across. Brown Mills, Tup, Chastain, all city courses and are wayyyy better for the price and the amount of time spent on the golf course.

Again, don’t play here. Play somewhere else.

Great course - greens plays fair everything you'd want - challenging but fair!

This is a great track but the greens are crazy. They seem like they havent been cut or rolled. Or maybe just rolled and not cut. They were all over the place in pace. One was lightning, the next the opposite. A lot of different looks and feels between every other green. Just incredibly inconsistent. And then two holes were closed! No mention of it whatsoever. That's just inexcusable.

This course was NOT worth the $70 required to play. Literally EVERY green had a ring of sand that looked like a moat surrounding it. Good luck if you landed short of the green. There was also zero warning about this and zero explanation. The beverage cart only came around to us once (on hole 3). Hole 15 was closed due to “maintenance”.

CC Gwinnett has a history of being a very "consistent" mid-priced course. You could count on the greens being mid-speed and true. Good to get your putting speed in shape. The layout is good even if tight. Facilities are good.

The previous ownership almost ran it into the ground. Holes in the greens, patches of weeds, no grass at all on the tees, etc. This was combined with a HORRIBLE attitude in the clubhouse. They actually would not allow you to access the range without a tee time. I've never seen this anywhere.

The new management is trying VERY hard to bring this course up to standard. In the last year they have replaced dilapidated bridges, repaved cart paths, and taken out dozens of trees. New putting greens. It's really coming together. I expect in 2-3 months with some sun and rain this course will be in STELLAR shape.

That being said we were charged full price for a course with 2 holes on the back nine completely closed for maintenance. No alt tees or other options. One of the two holes was perfectly fine. The work was done and only a flag was needed. I think we should have been informed of this prior to booking or given a discount or partial credit or something. But I understand and appreciate all their efforts.

Course is under some maintenance around every greens and 2 fairways were closed. The improvement will be very nice when completed

paid for 18 holes but end up only allowed to play 16 holes due to construction which did not get inform prior to tee time. course fairly ok, Don't know when the construction will be finish. Call ahead to confirm before booking or you will be short 2 holes.

Great course and good experience, but get rid of the TagMarshal’s on the golf cart. They take all the relaxation out of golf and are so annoying. I would rather walk than take a golf cart with TagMarshal/or equivalent cart monitors.

First of all the tee boxes were mostly sand and it was hard to even find grass in the fairways. It was an extremely slow pace of play. When we got to number ten there were 6 people playing together and we asked them what tee time they had and said 10:30 and we had a12:30 time. We asked them were they came from and told us that they took about 1 1/2 hour lunch than they cut in from of us playing as a group of six. We told the ranger what they did and nothing happened and because we didn't want to spend three hours behind this group of six who were terrible golfers to play the back nine we decided to just quit after nine holes. We will go somewhere else next time.
