They loved it!

Had three of my favorite people travel down from NJ and out of all the courses we played (4) they said this was the best.

Great deal

Great in every way except pace of play was too slow. Almost a 5 hour round. Took an hour to play first 3 holes on back nine.

Outstanding!

Course is in great shape. Greens are fast and smooth and fairways and tee boxes are plush. Back 9 has some great lake views and lots of challenges. Best course I have played this year!

Carts are not allowed in parking lot, so plan on using bag drop.

Great value

If you haven’t played here then please do! The views alone are worth it. One of my favorite layouts and I’ve played all over Northeast, The Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida. Conditions were very good especially the greens. True and not too fast. My only complaint is the Ranger was more interested that we entered and exited at the designated places than speeding up play which was rather slow on the back nine.

Best Course in Georgia

Absolutely the best Greens in Georgia! I don't know what hybrid grass is used for these greens but every Club Corp golf course in Georgia should convert to these greens! Great Staff at this and all other Georgia State Park Golf Courses
