Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Weekday Round
Played a hot deal round mid-week, greens are in fabulous conditions. This course is a hull to get to from where I live(1hour) but worth the drive. The staff is super nice and the clubhouse has everything you need. Can’t wait till all the leafs change color in a few weeks!

Enjoyable and challenging
The course played very well but challenging and was in good condition. Many blind shots make it tough playing the course for the first time, prior course knowledge would be a benefit.
The setting is very peaceful and scenic. Worth the drive to play.

Challenging Course but Great!
Course is not for beginners. But it has some unique holes and very challenging. We played 18 holes in 4 hours which was good. Our cart was not good but that was not a worry. Definitely play at Lake Arrowhead again

Very challenging
Had a great experience playing the course. I will play it again soon. It’s very challenging to all players, not just an average handicap player like myself

Aeration

Etiquette optional
The course is great. Interesting holes that make good use of the topography. Tees, fairways, and greens in very good condition. Price is fair and the staff have always been nice to me.
Only issue I'd mention is slow groups, possibly members, who back the place up. The marshals are good but perhaps too forgiving. Took 35 minutes to play 8&9 because of the group in front of me. Didn't acknowledge me, no offer to play through, they just kept flaring and fatting shots. Seemed oblivious. Not the first time this has happened but is surely the most frustrating. I rate it highly because the course is excellent, in great shape, and the people are nice, but slow play makes it frustrating.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable and will inform the teams in charge. We look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course thanks you!
