Excellent greens

I gave this course another try and was glad I did. The greens were in excellent shape, and most fairways were good. A few tee boxes need some work, and the traps need sand, but I was told it's on the way. The layout is good overall, with a couple of weird holes. I will play there again.

Posted Tee Times That Aren’t Available

Drove 40 min after booking a tee time for them to tell me they closed early for the day. I even called the pro shop beforehand to confirm that they were open but nobody answered. Guy in the pro shop wasn’t helpful at all and didn’t seem to care. If you don’t have tee times available then don’t post them online as open. Update your system lazy people

Needs some work

This course needs an upgrade. Have played other comparably priced courses in the area that are much better overall. Person in clubhouse was very friendly and got me going right away. Course layout overall is interesting. However, it needs a good bit of work. Sand traps have rakes, but no sand. Fairways through the greens are pretty decent and greens are in nice shape and roll well. Cart paths are not good and overall feel of the course if "old".

A course so ratchet it's not even in the GHIN handicap system

The pros:

Good layout, decent greens, friendly staff, new carts

The cons:

Bunkers are garbage. Fairways are hard has a rock. Tee boxes are worn out. They haven't moved the pins in a year and as a result holes are collapsing (it does make putting easier), cart paths are crap. No drinking water on the course, no beverage cart, and the turn is nowhere near the clubhouse. Fresh cut grass everywhere so you can easily lose your ball in the fairway. Basically what everyone else has said in other reviews.

Also, don't bother trying to enter your score into the GHIN handicap system as it doesn't recognize this as a "golf course." I can see why.

As everyone else has already said, it could be a great course.

Good layout, decent greens (not great, but decent)

Fairways always hard and fast with very little grass. Tee boxes terrible. Sand traps are considered a free drop. New carts will be destroyed by the terrible paths and somehow, fairways as well.

Pity no one will put any money into it. Could be great.

Over priced

The bunkers are hard and full of grass. The course does not serve alcohol, but there are beer cans scattered in the woods throughout the course. For a cost of $63 per round, it is not worth the fee. I pay less at much nicer courses, why is this so expensive, with no attention to the details?

Course is in terrible shape, impossible to get a tee in the ground as well as no water stations anywhere on the course. One of the lower end courses in the Atlanta area.

Fun course but needs some work...

Just a couple changes and this could be a much better course. First, the cart path - there are a lot of spots where the path cannot be driven on. The course is taking the punishment for that as people drive around those spots. Second, the rough - I lost several "in play" balls just off the fairway because the rough is so high and the grass clippings are sitting on top. This should be maintained better. Lastly, cleanliness and functionality - there's no turn at the clubhouse. If you know this going in, it's fine. But, you expect to have certain things on a course like that - water and a bathroom. Bathrooms were out of order, water stations were empty, and several trash cans were overflowing. I've played here several times and it has always been this way. Ultimately, I will go back, but wish some things would improve.

Great Greens

I played at Southland after a long delay at the airport due to weather. However, when we finally arrived at the course, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The Greens were in EXCELLENT CONDITION and we had a great 18 holes of golf.

Neglictedt

The course has potential, but it’s neglected and run down. Wooden steps and bridges are in poor condition. Trash was not emptied and overflowing. No water on the course (9 doesn’t end near the clubhouse), so bring plenty of water and etc to stay hydrated. No Marshal and pace was so very slow. You’re not allowed to have a cart until your entire group is present. No bag drop. Bunkers are not kept up, they are not raked, most have grass growing in them and debris like pine cones is plentiful. Many tee boxes were without grass and very hard- good luck getting the tee in the ground. $10 for a very small bucket of range balls (irons only) I was disappointed..
