Not wet

Course is in great shape. But don't go if it's rained in the last 10 days they prefer that the course not to have any dampness at all or it'll be cart path only,and it's not an easy course for that.

Great course

Love the layout of the course. In the middle of nowhere . Surrounded by winding roads, but loved playing this course. Well worth it with GolfNow.

Wow - what a course

Been playing around Atlanta region and exploring all the courses..

This is one of the more stunning courses

Arrowhead is about an hour from Athens

Still that makes it an incredible value.

Conditions for early March were excellent

Greens were slow but hard to make a pitch mark and nice to see some green on the fairways

Layout is wonderful - especially back nine

Tees are generally in good conditions

We played Lake Lanier and this is comparable layout..

It is a state park golf course but the cost is wonderful value for the quality

Going back this week

A little bit out in the sticks but a very nice course in terms of the layout of the holes and the condition of the tee boxes, fairways and greens.
