Find another course to play.

The staff was very rude. The course was not in good condition and the greens are a 5 out of 10. Suggest playing elsewhere.

In good shape for any time of year

The course was in good shape. The greens where good shape with just a few rough spots. There were some soggy areas but that is to be expected for this time year. I will definitely be playing there again in the near future. Also, if you are like me and can't always find the fairways, you will like how well everything is cleaned out and easily playable from the woods. Fortunately, I only lost one ball during my round but that was because I hit it extremely bad. Hope this helps out.

All you need to know

Those used to avg ratings of 3.8 or up on GolfNow for Metro Atlanta, don't buy into this course's trumped up ratings. It doesn't hold a candle to the likes of Chestatee, Cobblestone and other area courses that are rated similarly. Fairways were hardly maintained and the trash/rough areas were basically rocks and roots. Bring a GPS with a course map, very positional golf course..need to hit it in the right spots or you will be frustrated by good shots turned bad.

The course has great features

Great lay out, well kept, greens awesome and fast. I had very good round, the only problem was the leaves on the fairways, but that's expected this time of year.

For this time of year the course was in extremely good condition, and very well paced. We played 18 holes in under three and a half hours.
Great value for the money.

Great value. Friendliest marshal I've met

Very good course. Good facilities and friendly staff. Pace of play was the worst I've ever encountered. All together nearly 5 1/2 hours to play.

We had a great day and look forward to returning. A fee places on the greens need attention but we were impressed.

Great course with lots of potential

First time playing this course, but it definitely won't be my last. A bit tricky to get to, but it was worth the trip. First, the staff was very helpful and the layout of the course was just perfect. Maybe the only negatives that I found were that a lot of the greens were in not the best of shape with scattered brown spots and they were very slow, and the fairways were quite a bit soggy due to the recent rains. Having said that, the grounds crew were very busy repairing and fixing all over the place, so I think that things will be a lot better in the coming weeks. Also, the elevation changes and the undulating greens makes this a treat to play. This is such a fun course to play that I will definitely book my tee time as soon as I settle on a return date to the Atlanta area.

Nice course!

Nice neighborhood course, close proximity to my home. A little hard to find without a GPS. Semi-private was possibly the reason I was able to get a good tee time and an excellent rate. The value for the dollar was great! Some greens in poor condition, Cart paths damaged, but overall, nice layout. Not too long, but not too short either. Staff seemed somewhat helpful. Planning to play this course again in the very near future.

nice variety of hole and undulating greens

The course has quite a few straight forward holes but also a few with some sharp turns to make the course seem a little longer then the posted yardage. was a visually appealing course. only non positive comments would be the extremely soggy greens which made it hard to play bump and run shots inside 60 yards. they even watered the green at 1:45 pm when they where still soggy from before. I hit a 3 wood from 265 that plugged 35 feet from the hole on the green. From all the plug marks on the green made it a little bumpy. To end on a positive note the sand traps were pristine and played true.

Good Layout

This is a good little spot. The course was in good shape, the greens were rolling a little slow but happy with the quality of the course. The practice facilities are very nice and the practice green rolls about the same as the course. I was able to play on a hot deal but I'm not sure the full price is worth it. Overall good condition and a nice layout. I will play it again.

Good course

The bent-grass greens were smooth. I had never played bent-grass before so it was a challenge to get used to them. I noticed a lot of ball marks where people just weren't repairing them. Sand traps were not raked and divots were not maintained in the fairways. This is a bad mark of the players that play there and not the management of the course. Overall, I enjoyed the round and would go back.

Awesome course! Not so much staff

Tried to buy an energy drink and the bar tender was extremely stressed out and rude. Then when she has less than the three people she had last time she recommended we buy stuff so we could tip her... Not even joking. Good course though! Fun and challenging to play!
