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.

Nice day. Strange course

Beautiful fall day for a round with my son. The course layout is a little odd. The first tee is a par five that requires an iron shot off the tea second hole a medium length par three. You don’t get to hit driver until the third hole. The course has a lot of character with a mixture of Highlands and woodlands holes, but it’s difficult to find a level lie even with well struck shots in the undulating layout. This seems unfair at times. A couple of great holes with water features that were very fair. Greens were in average condition for this time of year. All in all a nice day on the course and a good value for the money

Coarse in great shape, except for hole 5

Hole number 5 needs to be filled in with dirt and grass where you cross the bridge going up to hole 5.

Just to difficult for beginners and intermediate players.

Great staff, course in fantastic shape

A little late for our tee-time waiting on our third. Starter was willing to place us ahead of a large group that had started before us. We declined, but throughout our round, he kept checking on us about playing behind the large group. Greens were in great shape. Fairways were cut with no bare spots. Overall, a great day at Lake Arrowhead.

Enjoyed the day!

I have played this course on numerous occasions, and enjoy my rounds here. The course is set in valley surrounded by the southern tips of the Appalachian Mountains in Waleska, Georgia. There are a number of really good holes on the course, and few that are a couple that are a bit quirky, but all in all, a reasonably good routing.

The course itself could stand a little more attention to upkeep in that some of the greens are thin, and the fairways themselves are sparse of dense grass in various fairways.

In spite of some short comings, the experience is enjoyable due to layout of the course and the views of the mountains around you and nature.

some of the holes are very challenging
