The New Management Has Priced Themselves Out of Line

The new management that took over from Marriot has priced the greens fees into the stratosphere to the point I won't be playing here again any time soon. $119 for a weekend tee time for these courses? They're out of their minds.

Not worth the money

The course was in terrible shape and therefore it was cart path only. It’d be nice if that was advertised in some way. You’ll definitely get your steps in hiking up some of the hills at each hole. Also since it was cart path only, people were playing slower which management needs to consider and times need to be staggered better. Where is your Marshall moving people along? We only saw the beverage cart one time in four hours too. I would recommend you gold somewhere else!

Won't play again

Allowing for it being winter conditions, the course was poorly maintained and the greens were in bad shape. At $76.00/player, I was expecting a better kept track.

With that said, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The course lay-out was very good and the views were wonderful.

Expensive and poor after management change

Used to be an awesome course, however, after the management change, the course quality has deteriorated significantly. Water puddles, uneven greens etc - better management is needed.

Great Layout on Lakemont

The views are amazing with a great layout. Super friendly staff especially the starter Montana. Bent grass greens were a little rough. This course will always be on my must play list.

Packed. Terrible greens. Expensive.

Greens are in horrible shape on the whole. Not worth $88

A hotdog is $6.

Go further out of Atlanta and find a better course that isn’t a slow round that’s overly expensive, crowded and in really poor shape.

Tight and Challenging

This is a great course with some beautiful holes. That being said, it is the off season so conditions aren’t perfect. Was informed they are planning to switch the rest of the Bent Greens to Zoysia later this year which will make this course far more user friendly. Currently there is a constant back and forth between the two types of grass which are at vastly different speed’s making it very difficult to get a rhythm on the greens.

Shadow of the Mountain

It’s been several years since we have played the course and for as much as we had to pay it was disappointing. A lot of the Tee Boxes were not in good shape. Good things were the leaves were blown off the greens and Fairways. The greens rolled pretty good for as much rain as fell the day before. No food shack on the turn but thanks to the Beverage Cart that was waiting at the 10th Tee Box!
