Good value and in good condition

Always a fun round here. The greens are in pretty good shape. The fairways are a little dry, but that's expected this time of year (Feb). Overall a great experience.

Home Course

This is the closest public course near me. I play here every other month or so. Great value for the money. Good course lay out. Some easy holes, and some hard holes. Expectations should be what you think a public course should be. Definitely worth your time to play.

Bad Condition

The course is in bad condition and poorly maintained. Whatever the Griffin City Golf Course is doing is the solution to making this course better. It is hard to understand how Griffin which is a smaller city has a better municipal golf course than McDonough’s municipal course.

Course is Closing

Enjoyed playing this course for the last time. The county is closing it down.

We had a good round, the weather was nice

The county is ready to demolish the course. The stakes are already put down and as we played stakes from surveying team were put down.

I wish there was a way to save this course, but I guess the county needs it more. To heck with the golfers. Maybe a new golf course is in the future?

Sandy greens

In the middle of my round, they are putting sand on the green. It was not a good day to play.

Great value for the money

It's a great layout and I enjoy the course. It's a very reasonable price and you don't get that high in feel but in my opinion it's a very good value.

Firm fairway and punched greens

The fairways were firm and running. Most drives carried 270 and ran out to 320. Greens were punched and sanded. Not putts made. To much sand. It was an ok and fun round. Course just needs some rain.

A decent course

Decent course in McDonough. Easy to play, but pace of play was a bit slow. Staff was extremely friendly on arrival and it’s a great way to start a round. I’ll play there again.

Great course

This was my first time playing and I will be back. It’s actually the closest course to my house. I picked it today for the deal I got on GolfNow for 2 for 9 holes. The greens had been punched recently but they surprisingly played very well considering that. I will be back for future outings.
