Editor's Note: Course closed for business.
The Hooch Golf Club sits along the Chattahoochee River in Duluth, sprawling across a scenic landscape covered with ponds and lakes. The course is an executive, par-61 layout that combines traditional features with modern challenges. Although there aren't any par 5s on the golf course there are a few holes that stretch to over 400 yards, which guarantees that you'll be using all the clubs in your bag. There is plenty of water throughout the golf course, including three holes that play right along the river. It might not be what you're looking for if you want something truly formidable, but for a short course it's a good challenge that provides excellent iron practice. Besides the golf course, The Hooch is also known for its 12-acre, lighted driving range. There are also putting and chipping greens with a deep-faced practice bunker.

Just fun
This golf course is a lot of fun and a great place to work on your short game. Don’t come here looking for world class golf, it’s fun, that’s all. My wife and I are complete beginner golfers and really enjoy playing here due to how forgiving the course is. We usually get a full 18 in in just under 3 hours, and it’s normally wide open with no waiting and no one waiting on you. Unfortunately it may not be around much longer, so get in as much as you can before the end of the year. Also it has a driving range with both grass tees and turf tees.
Exactly what you need
Perfect place to practice or see where your game is at. I am a 15 handicap that plays a 4 handicap here. It's easy and an amazing confident booster.
Great Course
I’ve been playing at the hooch for about 5 years now. I love the environment and pace of the game. Great course!
Hooch in great shape
Best condition I’ve seen the hooch in years.
Thanks for the great round. wooped my sons tail.
Fun Course
Fun course to play. Getting a bit run down. Greens are good even though a little slow. Fairway signage is terrible. It’s run down and some signs are broke off. Golf ball cleaners are dirty and low on water. Water stinks. Marshall’s are great.
Great short course after work
Friendly staff. Decent course layout and conditions are good for this time of year. Only issue was the foursome ahead of us hitting multiple balls each. Etiquette is unfortunately not taught these days. The four pairs that were backed up behind them was a bit much. At least we consolidated into foursomes.
The hooch
Large pools of standing water on many holes. course did not make us aware of these conditions prior to play.
Flooded out
Played Nov 21st Course still flooded on holes #1, 4, 6; very wet on 11, 17. I previously played on June 21st
Awesome for the money
Ever feel like a good day of golf is only when you have a good day with your driver? Not here. Only a few par 4s, but plenty of fun and some challenging par 3s to practice your short game. I definitely needed it. Great beginners course, but challenging enough from the tips for great practice for seasoned players. Will be playing this course again, especially at these prices.
