Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course
About
Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Highland Course at Lake Arrowhead weaves through rolling woodlands. Every hole offers unique scenery and stunning mountain views. The golf course was completely redesigned in 2008, which makes it one of Atlanta's younger courses; nevertheless it has quickly garnered a strong following amongst locals thanks to not only the challenging layout but also the affordable rates and beautiful setting. Lake Arrowhead's convenient location makes it even more appealing, it sits less than an hour north of Atlanta. The golf course features strategically placed bunkers and plenty of trees. It is a layout that requires careful course management. The 14th hole is arguably the most difficult. This tricky par 5 is known to test even the most skilled players.

Golfer Reviews
Best course for the money in North George
The views are amazing, the fairways are plush, the tea boxes look like you’re living room carpet, and the greens are as good as any in the area
Beautiful course
A beautiful course to play. All the staff are friendly and helpful. New golf carts are a plus. The wildlife is second to none, deer everywhere. Pace of play was perfect. Great round of golf.
Nice course. Great layout, tough but very playable. Greens are good, fairways are are good, tee boxes need a little more help you can see they are trying to repair them, staff is awesome. Even for a Sunday round I thought it was a good deal. Had a 4 hour and 10 min round. I will play this course a little more often!!!
mountain golf at the worst
The course is in a monsterous developement and you almost have to take a lunch to get to it, about 15 minutes inside the gate house. The views are pretty if that's what you play golf for. There is a forced carry on every hole and it seems to be designed to penalize every shot. BRING LOTS OF GOLF BALLS, CHEAP ONES! They will soon lose their greens unless they control the mold. Right now, it does not affect play very much, but will soon. I'm not a beginner, play 3-5 per week so I think I can give a fair evaluation even if my game is a little off right now. I would not play this course again. It was not enjoyable. To me, it was mountain golf at it's worst.
Gentlemen in clubhouse needs a better attitude
Nice day on the golf course, even though it was a little wet. Plenty of wildlife out there. The greens were in good condition and a bit soft. Starter was a nice guy, but the fella in the clubhouse had the personality of a wet dish rag. Piece of plate was good and would’ve got a higher writing except for that person in the clubhouse.
Keeps getting better
I recall a couple of years ago, the course was struggling with fairways and tee boxes were not in good shape. Every time I go, the course continues to look better and better. Fairways were perfect, greens in great shape, tee boxes look good. Pace of play excellent, staff very friendly, layout challenging but not super hard. Some nice views of the mountains.
They could use GPS on the carts.
Overall excellent value and solid golfing experience.
Pace of play was BAD
My wife and I were behind a foursome, playing the TIPS, that were baddddddddddd. Never asked us to go thru. In addition, NEVER saw a marshall. Our round took just under 5 hours and this was a Monday....can't imagine weekend play times.
Think before you swing 🤔
This course was designed to make you think your way from the tee box to the green! Make sure you have a range finder or an app that will give you distances of obstacles. Carts do not have any GPS. Beautiful course, greens were in great shape however slower than average and many of them with multiple tiers. I was victim to a couple three putts. Enjoyed the course and actually played very well, it’s more open than I thought, large fairways but hazards all over the course. Amazing practice facility with several greens and detailed yardages on the range. Staff was as friendly as a chick-fil-a drive thru! Highly recommend the course!!!
Unique Course Layout
I use unique in a good way. More position golf than a grip and rip course. Overall the greens are great but they need to tell players to fix their pitch marks.
Good track
1 weird par 4/5. Greens were in good condition, little furry and slow though, very moist. Probably trying to keep them from dying in this heat wave.
Great course, hidden gem
Great course with challenging holes, you need to think strategically with your club selection. Staff was very friendly especially for my first time playing there.
Wonderful Course
First time to be challenged at this course. Will definitely return to play again. Highly recommend!
