Super Condition

This was my second time playing this course in a year and I must say It is in super condition! The fairways are the best I have on all year in the state of Georgia and the greens rivals Southern Hills in Hawkinsville, Georgia. The staff were very pleasant, I will say that the lack of staff working on a Saturday was very noticeable, i.e. (had to wait for carts, club house closed temporary because worker was needed at the lodge and I could not buy any refreshments at the turn). Other than that, it was a great day!

Very playable course

We got a good deal at Golf Now. Greens have been renewed and the overall course was well manicured. I had not played here in a few years but was happy with improvements. Will definitely be back.

Great Course But Dealt With Twosomes All Day

I have been playing this course since I was 16 yrs old. It is once again in good condition with smooth greens and plush fairway's. But since the state let it go, the importance of pace of play and how they run things has gone downhill. Weekends are now an endless stream of twosomes who rush to play through a foursome. We as a foursome play an avg round in 3 1/2 hrs to 4 depending on course pace of play but we let one twosome thru on 3 and when we reached 13 they were holding up play. They used to not let twosomes or singles on course until after 1pm or they would pair you up. Now it's almost impossible to enjoy a steady round without having to worry about someone running up your butt wanting to play thru and then having to wait on them as they move slow.

A beautiful layout in great condition!

I've played this course many times, and it's so nice to see it in such great condition. This course is not real long, but it requires well placed shots to be able to score well. The greens, since last year's replacement, are in terrific shape and holding up well. Overall, just a pleasure to play here!

Excellent Layout

I found the course in very good condition, but wished that there was a way to be forewarned that the greens had been re3cently aerated. This affected all puts and made the total experience less than perfect.

Thought we were on Augusta greens. Beautiful.

Beautiful course. On course staff were as nice as can be. The only drawback is that the old man working in the pro shop was very...VERY rude. Appears to hate life....? And this course is so perfect that I think I'd work there for free lol. Matter of fact I couldn't find even one weed growing in the fairways, ball rolled so true on the greens and a beautiful facility. We just cringed every time we walked in the pro shop...it or his personality is that bad.

Great course with exception of staff member

Gentleman in the pro shop was rude and does not need to be in a position of helping the public. I paid through golf now and was accused of being a thief for using this service.

Friday with Friends

This course design is very good. Tough front nine with more opportunities on the back nine. I enjoyed the course and will return. I recommend this course.

Great condition and character....neat golf course

Very nice state park course. Not overly long and not sitting on a huge piece of land, but a creative layout with interesting holes and character. Has some tight stretches and some elevation changes. Tees and fairways and greens in very nice shape. Played my ball down all way round.

excellent track - well maintained but greens need work

This is an excellent course. It is a little long and over challenging for the average golfer. Even the senior tees are set up for long hitters. Course was played off season and we had a super discounted price. Condition of the course for January was good, although the greens were bare and hardened in spots. If the greens were in better condition, the rating I would give the experience would be excellent plus... Even with the rough condition of the greens ... great course.......

The greens are dead.

I have played this course for years. In the past it has been the most consistently well maintained course in the SE. This past summer they sprayed the greens with somethign which completely killed the greens. They are trying to get them back but for now they are terrible. I would not go back if i could play for free until the greens have been totally reworked.
I really hate to post this because of how well the ocurse has been maintained in the past, but for now the greens are gone. The rest of the course was great.
