Just great course
This is the beautiful course I've ever played.
More than 10 holes are along the lake and
the lay out is fun and tough. The fairway
need better management. Over all superb.

Beautiful course, satisfactory conditions
The grass is still dormant. A heavy rain the preview days makes it feel like hitting off a wet carpet. I think I’m going to wait a few weeks before I attempt to play to give the grass a chance to grow in.

Great Track but getting pricey!
One of the top-5 public play courses in metro Atlanta. Very challenging course design requires well targeted shots. Fantastic views of Lake Lanier, and rolling topography.

Great track!
First time I’ve played course and I’d rank in the “top-5” in metro ATL for public play. Challenging course from blue or tips and several “Bay Hill” like 300 yard carry to green if you don’t layup as mere mortals.
