Tough course but nice track!

You better be able to hit your ball if you wanna play this course! It is not amenable to a high handicapper. If you shoot over a 100, don’t frustrate yourself. I tend to shoot mid 80s or lower and I struggled significantly with it’s being my first time playing. Your goons get some double bogeys and few pars. But to be clear, it’s a really nice course and the greens are still healthy but not fast, the latter of which I prefer. The course is a very creative and challenging layout with A LOT of doglegsc bunkers, and a reasonable number of water hazards. Many of the fairways are tilted so you have to place your ball strategically for your next shot; and play the “slope.” Carts are in great shape and staff was friendly with a nice clubhouse.

Hilly and challenging

I’ve only played the course twice because it’s not on here most of the time. A good amount of narrow fairways so your tee off had better be accurate! Greens were perfect and rolled a little fast but that’s ok. I was paired up with two other guys who were more experienced than I was which I didn’t care too much for, but I understand that’s the nature of playing on a weekend. Great course though.

Great Course for Mid/Low Handicappers

I’m a high handicapper and this course absolutely wrecked me. It was so fun! There was only one course issue with a flooded bunker, but otherwise everything was in good to great shape. The greens were pure and the fairways - when I found them - were awesome. Wouldn’t recommend high handicappers play here unless you have a lot of patience and are willing to buy two full cases of balls. Worth it for the autumn views and great conditions! Food was just ok, but beer was readily available. Great carts, too!

The course is good. After reading many reviews, I decided to drive over an hour to play here. It's not a course that I would drive that distance to play again.
The course is in great condition except for the bunkers; they stink. The fairways and greens are great.
Several holes are "quirky." I know that's subjective, but there were a number of holes that I would play differently a second time through. Many of the approach shots feature uphill shots or forced carries over water.
It's a very nice course; it's just too much of a drive to play again.

Perfect golf

We played on Labor Day at 10AM - knew it would be crowded, so already set my mind on a slow round.

Having said that, this course is simply fantastic - an Arnie Signature course. If you’re willing to make the short drive from Atlanta you will not be disappointed. From carts to course to clubhouse it’s all good here. Fairways were like carpets and the greens were in excellent condition for the end of summer. Carts have GPS and nicest seats around - even have ball washers and coolers attached.

Take some time - and play this course.

Nice place to play

Suitable warmup area with a place to practice chipping and bunkers; plays more like a mountain course. Very hilly but put together nicely. Fairways and greens were in good shape. Like most Georgia courses, don’t hit it in the rough, your ball is gone. Enjoyed the gps on the carts as well

Best course in the area

Clubhouse is nice and service is good. Beverage carts and full kitchen in clubhouse. Practice range has short game area with a bunker. Course conditions are good but patchy fairways in some areas and rocks in bunkers. Design is very challenging with lots of trees and forced carries. Pace of play was good until 14th hole when we caught up to 8 people playing together with no marshall to stop them.

Greens are stupid strange

Hit 6/9 GIR on front nine and shot a 47. About the weirdest greens I’ve ever seen. The guys I played with were local and said that it gets better if you’ve played the course. I shot a 39 on the back when putting got better
