Don't Let the Location Fool You!

Was looking for something new and prestine to play. Why not, it's in Alpharetta, wrong. Nice layout, lost many of its green. Really didn't understand, hasn't been that hot this summer. Left and went next door, Atlanta Throphy Club, great shape!

To all golfers-- the greens are lost -the worst ive ever seen . the course should be ashamed to even offer playing on this course. every part of the greens are dead. if you respect golf and playing conditons stay away until they fix all of their dead greens. looks like they have given up on the course. spend your money elsewhere.

Good value

Really nice layout. Watch out on some of the green to next tee paths, it is a little tricky. We teed off on the wrong hole once. I think between 4 and 5, you pass a tee on the back 9 on the way to 5 tee. They lost portions of quite a few greens but still worth the money. Several blind tee shots. I liked it, I'll go back. Need acurate tee shots.

One of my faves for the price

This might be my favorite course in the area, I can always find a deal on it under $30, I believe its a Semi private course, so there's never a ton of people out there I played a round the other day in a bout 2 1/2 hours on the weekend. Greens are not good right now probably due to the heat this summer, fairways are in pretty good shape as are the tee boxes. Some interesting holes, It's a fairly short course but you definitely hit more than 3 drivers off the tee (as stated by that gentlemen's review down there \/ ) A couple fun driveable par 4's if you can hit 300 + (speficifally number 7 and 13) There are deer all over the place around holes 1,2,3 which is cool. Holes are pretty straight forward, sets up good for draws and fades. Challenging par 3's most about 170 yrds.

Aerated late August and looks like they lost the greens

Greens are aerated and in bad shape - they might have lost them. The rest of the course is normal condition.

Should be a better tract

All of the greens had a fungus so putting was marginal. We had the course to ourselves with no one in front or behind us. Fun short course.

Decent Course

Decent course overall. Worth the late afternoon 40 bucks to play. Layout is a little strange, but to be expected as they added 9 holes. Course is short. Really short. Hit driver once. Mainly 3-5 irons off tees. However it's still fun as it is a shot makers course. Played 18 in 3 hours. Can't beat that pace of play. I would play again.

Very short course

Most greens were in excellent condition with true rolls. Hole #15 (i'm pretty sure it was 15) for some reason was extremely shaggy and hadn't been mown in several days. i'm sure they were doing that so the green wouldn't die.

i play from the back tees and the yardages on a lot of the holes were not true to the score card. for example, #2 is a par 5 which i think was indicated as 570yds on scorecard. i hit driver 4-iron and was pin high. that meant my drive would have had to fly nearly 350yds. it could have but i don't think so.

anyway, this is a course to play when you want to work on your wedge game because you'll hit driver maybe four to five times. rest, you're hitting irons of the tees.

all in all, enjoyable.

Fun course

Great course. Greens had some issues but we're playable. No range, just a net. The rest of the course was manicured and landscaped nicely. Fun time!

Great course

Played this course on a cloudy Monday. We were one of probably 4 groups in the course, so pace of play was never an issue. The course is a nice challenge and mix of par 5s, medium and short par 4s, and some nice par 3s that can make you pull out long irons from the tips. Apparently by this time the grass had grown in because we didn't experience any of the issues with fairway grass being dead or rough patches that had been stated below. There was 1 green out of 18 that hadn't grown in yet, and for what I paid to play, that's completely acceptable to me because it was obvious it was being worked on. Great course, looking forward to returning in the near future.

Good Course, But Funny Layout

Played here for the first time. Course in good condition with the exception of a couple of greens. This was once a 9 hole layout where an additional 9 holes were added. A little confusing as to where to go, and long distances from some greens to the next tee box with multiple cross-crossing holes. Tight course in general, but very playable.

Don't let the first three holes fool you

After three holes, we hated this course. We had a 2:10PM start time on Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend and were greeted by four groups on the first hole. It's a semi-private course and apparently members can walk on any time they like. But as the course cleared, we started enjoying it a lot more. It's very short, including a couple of reachable par 4's (if you can hit it straight 230+). Two things brought my overall course rating down...if you play this course when it's busy, I can see how it would be a bit dangerous. Several times you're asked to double-back on a cart path, heading directly into another tee box. Secondly, course conditions were sub-standard. Greens were bumpy, bunkers were in disrepair and fairways were spotty. But...a decent variety of holes. I'll be back once we get a bit more rain and sun.

Almost great

The course is in good shape except the greens still have the indention scars from the aeration process that was done about the first of April. When chipping the holes cause the ball to change direction either right, left, skip forward or stops the roll out. The greens need to be sanded again.

Won't Play Here Again!!

The course was in poor shape even after the greens were punched 4 weeks prior. The fairways were scraggly with many bare spots of dirt with no grass. The holes are very far apart which makes for a longer day, but no one was on the course due to it's condition.

Fun little course

This was a fun little challenging course. Been looking for an off the beaten path country course to play and this fits the bill. What I really like is you'll use all the clubs in the bag with heavy emphasis on the short game which was a great change of pace. Great staff and just fun!
