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.

Beautiful course needs more signs
The course was one of the most beautiful and challenging courses I have played. The scenery was amazing and was not that busy at all but it was a Tuesday. I would definitely come back to play again and recommend it to a friend. Only complaint is it needs more signs around the course directing you to the next tee. Other than that 9/10 for the price.

Marshall’s don’t know the pace of play.
The starter was splitting groups of four into twosomes, no wonder the pace of play was over FIVE hours. Called the marshall out and asked him was the normal pace was for the course and his legit answer was “I have no idea”. THATS THE JOB OF A MARSHALL!! They did nothing to speed up the pace of play, so after a three hour front nine, lots of people quit and it finally sped up slightly.

Scenic Course
Entrance road from Hwy. 108 turnoff to guard house is under construction, alternating pavement and dirt/mud. Once past guard house, long, hilly drive through neighborhood to get to clubhouse. Friendly staff. Played on a cool, misty, foggy day, so had the place mostly to myself. Course was soggy in places, but that was expected. Very hilly course, and a few signs could be added when traversing between a few of the holes. I hadn't played there in years (since they flipped the nines), so I had to figure out a few of the turns on the cart path. Tee boxes were sparse in places, with sand on some (hopefully grass will grow in during the summer). Wide fairways were green, hard to tell the firmness with all the moisture. Greens were in good shape, slow mostly due to the moisture. The moisture did pick up whatever minimal sand was left from previous aeration, but the ball still rolled fairly true. Bunkers seemed okay, hard to tell with the previous rainfall. Beautiful mountain scenery, with hills, meadows, and the occasional wildlife. Worth the drive, would be better on a nicer, drier day (but then the crowds would be out as well). A distance scope is a must to figure out yardages to hazards, and yardages to carry.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course.
Great Course
This is my 3rd time at Arrowhead. I brought a friend who had never played there. Course is in excellent condition. The Greens are in tip- top shape as are the fairways. The Tees are in Good shape but not as good as the rest of the course. There were workers all around so they are improving and maintaining. We did not have to wait for anyone nor were we rushed from behind. It was a great day for golf. We teed off right on time at 10:30.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course.
Mountain links course
The course is in great shape. This was my first round here. Luckily i got paired with some locals that knew the course.there are several T shots that require distance control. Overall, it is a fun and challenging course. If you don't put the ball in the right place at the right distance it could make it difficult to score.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course.
Never again
The course is not in good shape at all.
Fairways were very hard with limited grass, the greens were very inconsistent, bunkers were inconsistent as well.
To top it off we were one hour into our round on hole #7 with no one in sight anywhere and they have a ranger driving around telling everyone to pick it up and play ready golf. We will never return.

We greatly value your feedback as we work towards any necessary improvements. Thank you for choosing our course, and we hope to see you again soon.
Fair condition
Decent condition for early May, greens were not consistent in cut, resulting in speeds fluctuating on every hole. Tee boxes were a disgrace, improvement needed.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Lake Arrowhead Yacht & Country Club - Highlands Course, and we hope to see you again in the future.

Great, tough track (recently aerated)
LakevArtowhead is always a great experience. Picturesque views, challenging track, friendly staff and a steal for the price. In great shape as always. Greens were aerated but guessing, in about a week, they should be ready. And have your camera ready, wildlife everywhere!
