Nestled in the foothills of the north Georgia mountains, Sugar Hill Golf Club tumbles across elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. The course is artfully laid across the rolling hills, weaving through stands of mature trees, to provide it with the maximum level of challenge and the best views. The natural contours played a role in determining the placement of the bunkers around the greens and fairways as well as shaping the sharp doglegs. As if the golf course didn't already have enough challenges, there are also deep grass canyons and water hazards to contend with. The par-4 fifth and the par-3 12th are memorable water holes, both featuring large lakes that lurk in front of the greens. Sugar Hill G.C. is known as one of the toughest golf courses in the area.

This course gets you to think

Overall, I enjoyed playing SHGC. There are a lot of shot placements to a landing zone for the next shot so iron play has to be good. The only problem playing an "Atlanta" golf course is that for some reason the pro shop wants you to go out in foursomes. I don't have 3-4 hours for 9 holes or 6-7 hours for 18 waiting on the others to play. I got other things that need to be done in the day. This was the 2nd course in 3 weeks where we were paired up with other guests.

Nice public course!

If you live in the Atlanta area, you already know that most of the courses are private. It is difficult to find a course where you aren't paying an absorbent amount to even join much less play. SHGC was a great public course to play. A lot of spots you had to land to setup for the next shot. Greens were baked and fast which I like. I would recommend playing this for any type of golfer. Beautiful scenic holes and lots of hills.

Great value!

The course is pretty challenging and is almost always in good condition. The greens are in very good condition right now. I urge anyone that hasn’t tried this course to do so. One of the best bangs for your buck anywhere around!
