Reviews
The creek course is fantastic
This course is one of the best public courses in the state. The pace of play was swift. The course is in terrific shape.
Consistently in good shape
I continue to enjoy making the creek at hard labor, one of my rotational courses. Staff is always friendly, great range, and always paired up with nice folks. For the money it’s hard to find a better value in the metro Atlanta area.
The Creek
The course is in great shape! Great job at Hard Labor State Park!
Course maintenance
Note greens are being punched and sanded this week
The Creek has a nice variety of holes in the layout. Course was in good condition except the greens were super receptive to approach shots. My understanding is that the greens were completely redone a couple of seasons ago so I expect that will change.
Great course
This is a beautiful course. Well maintained. Ground under repair marked well. Pace of play was excellent. Would highly recommend.
Best conditions ever
Have played this course over decades and have never seen it better. It's absolutely beautiful.
Great Track! Will Be Back!
Prior to booking for this course, I took a very good look at many of the reviews. Many of the reviews made note of some of the tee boxes needing a bit of TLC. I found the course to be in very good shape, including the tee boxes. I mean; we are only in there for just a bit and I wasn't hindered by any of the tee boxes. Just the same, the course was awesome, on a beautiful day, and, I shot fairly decent; what more can one ask for? I would certainly recommend this course, and I look forward to playing it again soon.
