Private course at a bargain price in Tee off

Course is well maintained and staff was friendly. Played from the Tips (USGA 7 handy). I will say it was really challenging with many par fours over 440 yard. 260-270 drive with long iron into the elevated greens protected by bunkers and creeks in front of the green.

I would have given 5 rating if the staff was more accommodating. Wanted to play 9 more holes to avoid traffic coming back to Atlanta , but was told “NO. It is members only after 3 pm”.

Enjoyable round in the summer heat

I always enjoy this course. The greens were aerified and slow but playable. The tee boxes that had become barren have largely recovered or been repaired. Note that the 7th tee (blue) which has been fully resodded was virtually unplayable with the grass taller than a standard tee. Understandable with the weather and need for recovery but tees should have been located on one of the several other boxes; an issue for anyone that takes no liberties in maintaining their handicap.

Governors

I’ve seen the course in better shape. Hole number 4 was closed and tee boxes on a few holes not in the best condition. It’s still a great course and well worth playing.

Tee Boxes

Only complaint was that the tee boxes were is terrible condition. Virtually no grass on the Blue Tees, basically just sand. Fairways and greens very nice and in good shape.

Solid track.

Great facility and solid golf course. Bent greens were marginal because of the heat but held up well throughout the day. Played with 2 members and had a great time. Would play again for sure.
