Southland Golf & Country Club

This is a fine course offering good variety of holes , an excellent GN value.

Tees and fairways were both good and the greens were exceptional/pristine------there can not be better greens anywhere at any price better that what I saw yesterday, props to the groundskeeper. On the negative side, no attention to the bunkers seems to be paid and really with that the case they should just fill then in with dirt cause it detracts from the overall great condition otherwise. Southland is quite a drive from Marietta but well worth the trip.

Just... not at all what I expected. Most traps in poor condition.. Would not drink from water buckets; spouts looked gross. Snakes on cart path. Some good natural obstacles and the back 9 was more fun than the front. First thing I see when pulling into parking lot... overflowing dumpster. Pace of play was good... cause no one was there. Oddly, the starter had issues with me going out early but eventually relented.

Southland is a reliable option if you are looking for golf at a good value close to Atlanta. The course has a strong, challenging layout, with a few quirky holes thrown in that I wish I could dynamite. While you certainly shouldn’t expect “pristine” conditions, the course is usually in good shape (except the bunkers, but they’re supposed to be penal anyway!).

The day we played, they had just aerated the greens four days prior. We were given a discount on our greens fee, which was much appreciated. I’d expect the greens to be in very good shape in a couple weeks. They usually are.

Be aware the course doesn’t come back to the clubhouse after 9 holes, and there is no halfway house. Bring some energy bars!

I’ve played Southland my entire life. About once or twice every year since the 9th grade. The course continues to improve each time I go back. The practice green is what you’ll get on the course which I find awesome. The course is in decent shape. The bunkers are gone and may not be able to be saved. The course is a GREAT value and the views and winding track make for a good day of golf

This is a course relatively close to home. It's got a great layout and is extremely challenging on certain holes from the tips. This is a winter review. I'm sure the course is in better shape during the summer. Great championship Bermuda greens.

I love this course. You have to drive it straight or it will be a hard day. Greens could be frimer and faster. Best value in Atlanta. Driving range is only for loosening up.

To be honest, I haven't played the course. I am scheduled to play in a tournament here and so wanted to read reviews before I went. I am concerned because all of the problems that are current have been brought up many times and there doesn't seem to have been any change in the bunker, or course, or food service quality. The responses by management seem perfunctory and not followed up by any effort. Well see I guess, but the pattern seems pretty obvious. Doesn't make me look forward to playing there and would cancel if this wasn't money I am donating to charity.

The course was in good shape. The greens were in good shape also.

Course was in good shape, except for the sand traps aka mud traps. They need sand and a whole lot of it.

I play here a lot, so I may be biased. I just wish there were refreshments available while playing.

Bunkers are garbage. Management worse. Drove out on course to harass me over a rider in my cart. Stupid . only 15 cars in parking lot . only saw 10 people playing. But harass me over 15 dollars

Fairways were decent, greens were bumpy and slow, rough was super deep which was good motivation to be accurate off the tee. The actual course design was fine with some interesting dog legs and a couple uphill tee shots which made for an interesting round. My problem and why it gets a 2 instead of 3 was the bunkers were dang near empty, barely any sand was left, weeds were growing in the bottom, and most had more than a few cig butts in them. It was clear the course was either hard on money or just didn't care to maintain more than cutting grass.

The pace of play was horrible, they had a tournament starting up and we were forced to allow them to play through. I think that they should have either closed the course or refund our money.

Back 9 is beautiful and the course is in good shape overall. Though not a single trap was raked and they had grass growing in them. Grass had not been cut in a while and all the grass trimmings were thick. Greens were in great shape.

Would not go back though if I found something of similar rate.
