Barnsley is Simply One of the Best

The course was in amazing shape for a hot August day. The fairways were beautiful and the greens were smooth and fast. The setting for the course is absolutely gorgeous. I would recommend Barnsley to anyone that wants to play a challenging course in a beautiful setting.

GREAT golfing experience!

The mid-ninety degrees temp notwithstanding, it was a GREAT day! Course was in immaculate shape tee through green, even though greens were aerated only two weeks ago. Pleasant atmosphere, professional staff exhibiting that southern charm and friendliness; including golf cart shuttle from parking area to golf shop! Course us nearly an hour from my home, but I WILL be returning!

Course is absolutely fabulous

Only complaint is I wish I was told the greens had been punched, they were not horrible for being punched but it did put a damper on the round

Greens need to heal

I have played here before so this round would not deter me from returning but there were definitely issues. The greens have recently been aerated and there was no mention that when booking time. The front was better than the back nine. The course itself is beautiful but if it is extremely hot it would be helpful for the water not to be empty or missing as it was yesterday. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

Barnsley

For the money the staff was very unfriendly, treated us like we were trying to steal something. I have played here several times and this time I had to find my own cart really disappointed.

One of the best courses in GA

Excellent layout and conditioning no matter what time of the year you play. It's 4 hours of communing with the beauty of nature. October and November are my favorite with the brilliant colors of fall surrounding you. The last time I played, one of our 4-some commented the silence hurt his ears!

A pleasure

Course was in great shape considering all the rain we've had in the south. Greens were fantastic and fair not highway road fast. Love it that it's in the woods and no homes, very pieceful. My wife and I also had dinner there which was HOT and quite tasty which is a plus in our book. Go play it

Nice challenging course.

The course was in great shape except for the greens, they had been punched a month earlier and had a layer of sand on them. An excellent selection of tee boxes for all skill levels. The staff we encountered were friendly, had to load/unload our clubs as no staff was available at the bag drop. Overall one of the best courses in GA. look forward to playing again when the greens are completely healed.

Fantastic course

This is a great course staffed with very friendly people. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens are all in great shape. The greens are especially fast and, for the most part, consistent over all 18 holes.
