Rating 74.9

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.

Tough course, good early season test

Fairway grass is still dormant which added to the challenging course. Looking forward to returning when it greens up...

Pretty good all around

Course was in really good condition for this time of year. Grass range. Greens and layout were good but tough. Glad I played with a regular or I would’ve made a lot more mistakes off the tee. Got a deal at $29 so value was top notch too

Play here 6-8 times a year. Course is in decent shape for how cold and wet this winter has been. Staff is always the friendliest around. $54 is a fair deal too. Two thumbs up.

Course could be great

The staff were extremely unfriendly. Could have been due to frost delay and their regulars being upset. Play was extremely slow. Some of it could be excused by delayed shotgun start, but most was due to poor gold etiquette by the regulars, I mean waiting for the green to clear on a 270 yard tee shot when you can only hit 200 yards is ridiculous. It was very obvious that regular members do not take care of the course, ball marks not repaired on the green, divots not filled, etc. I members don't care about the course, why should visitors?

The course has great layout and could be a very nice place, but!!!

Beautiful Location, Just Needs some TLC

This was my first time playing this course. It’s a beautiful location with great backdrops of the mountains and especially nice with the leaves changing colors. The pace of play was fantastic, but think I got lucky because it was a weekday. The course was challenging so needed good accuracy to score well. The staff from the check-in to the starter were very, very friendly. My only concern was that the course conditions could be better and would be unbelievable if spent more time manicuring the fairways, tee boxes, and putting sand in the bunkers. In addition, really need some additional yardage markers and perhaps some distances to drop-offs so not hitting blind. Lot of fun and looking forward to playing again!!
