Comments: What can you say about playing here. Some of the best professional golfers have honed their craft at this course. I started playing here in 2000 and go back about 4 times a year to play. If you like diversity and a tough course from any tee then get up there. It is quite a drive but well worth it. The conditions are right and the downtown scene after for lunch is second to none! Great layout with a links style front and GA Mountain Course for the back 9!!! Get there early since Bubba won the Master's this place has become a mad house.........

Comments: Awesome layout! Greens are firm and fast! They are a private club but have a special that they run for $52 as a member for a day.. usually after 1pm! The course is challenging and long but everything seems to run out off the tee!

Comments: Found this place through a friend and we went with my 9 year old and he shot an 87 playing from the ladies tees! I shot 78 from the blue tees and my buddies were in the mid 80's..... Great value but a bit short, very interesting layout... If you like old style small clubhouses and great views then hit this place up.. A bit of a drive from Atlanta but worth a day trip! Shaggy fairways, greens were shaggy as well but we figured they were letting them grow out for aeration!

Comments: This was the first course I played when I moved to Atlanta back in 2000! Fourteen years later Roger and his family have turned the property and course into a 5-Star local gem! There is a 9 hole par 3, 18 hole Championship Course, driving range and the juniors program is top notch! The new Superintendent has transformed the greens into some of the best in town.

Comments: This is a great value these days! They have stepped up there game to compete with some of our local clubs. If you enjoy playing Jack designs then head out that way and bring plenty to drink as you don't make a turn but they have a snack girl right before #10!!! Green's are usually alright!

Comments: Great facility North of Atlanta! If you want a challenge from the back tees and the blue tees then get there and tee it up. The greens are always rolling well and the price is right with some great weekday promotions that can get you playing 36 holes and still be home by dinner!
