The Windermere Club
Played On 06/17/2023baren fairways - very nice greens
So, simply the fairways are in need of some lush grass. This could be a really nice course if they'd just use the sprinkler system some.
The greens were really solid. No complaints at all...
Cart paths - roots and such have taken their toll on the cart paths; hard to fix without some serious money.
The clubhouse is dated;
But, the staff, were incredibly pleasant.
The other golfers, were very pleasant as well; they make it very hospitable. If i lived in the area, i'd play there more. We had a good time and enjoyed the course!

Course has many blind shots, Can be provide problems... hit it and go find it and hope you find it.
Overall pretty good.
However, very much enjoyed the afternoon and would easily play again.
Sugar Hill Golf Club
Played On 06/03/2022Getting Better
We've play SugarHill several times over the years. Its a little out of the way, and not a course I'd play every week, but, its improving.
The staff was very pleasant... Kudos for that. Probably the first thing to a good course.
The fairways are better.
The greens could use some work they were very slow and beat up some, the roll wasn't true.. but again improving. Getting better.
Hi, thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Sugar Hill Golf Club!

Lanier Islands Legacy Golf Course
Played On 08/08/2021Pleasure
Our band of wanna be golfers had a great time today. This is an expensive course, the luxury amenities are a fabulous package and i'd recommend this to others. Staff are very pleasant! The course is beautiful. The T Boxes have grass and the course lays out nicely and challenging. Our crew will play this one again. Tomorrow wouldn't be soon enough! Certainly a favorite.
Bear's Best Atlanta
Played On 07/21/2021Wet detracted from value. oh well.. its still golf.
First time playing this course. Not worth the regular advertised price point when wet. I get it, its a nice course, but was way too wet after all the rain; you'd think a course advertised like this would dry better; but mushy fairways takes 20 yards off drives and creates muck when approaching a green. The pace of play was way too slow; with an instructor in front of us giving lessons we caught them on the 3rd hole and it dragged for 9 more until they finally! let us play thru. The bunkers were also in poor shape; many had standing water and such. I'd certainly play this course again under better conditions; as the greens were good. Hard not to find wet courses this time of year.
Thank you for your review! We apologize that our conditions didn't meet your expectations and that the pace of play was slow. We were impacted by heavy rains, so we're sorry that the course was still mushy during your round. We would love the chance to speak with you more about the pace of play. Please reach out to our General Manager, Ian Grimwade, at ian.grimwade@clubcorp.com. Thank you again and we look forward to speaking with you!

Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club
Played On 06/06/2019Can't hold the greens
Great course. Challenging. I'd play it again if I lived in the area. It was hot, but hey, its June. Beverage cart was around several times. Which is good.
Just the greens were so hard that nothing could seem to spin and hold them. Very disappointed that way, but if i was closer and not off the greens, well you get it; conditions are what they are... the rest is up to you.
Seriously, beautiful course with super nice people.
Apple Mountain Resort
Played On 10/28/2018Long Drive for Average Golf
Long drive to the course for an average course. Folks were very nice and the course was wide open; but the greens were or need some help. The fairways are in good shape but they could mow the tee boxes.
Will I likely play there again, probably not. Unless there is some golf package special that happens to attract its just not likely that I'll play there again.
For the money and the time; probably could be a little closer to home; but overall, an average course with very nice people.
The Trophy Club of Atlanta
Played On 05/30/2018Slow going second 9!
Was a single on a day that many stayed away. Started at 12.55 pm and ended at 4.15 pm. Played the first 9 in 1 hour 15 min. Then the back 9! Two golfers jumped in front of me on the turn and it was a grind with another playing in on me from the rear. Felt sorry for the guy behind me as I had to wait on every hole. Grrr! However, the course was otherwise nice; the people were very pleasant and the overall experience was pleasing.
Lanier Golf Club
Played On 04/27/2018As Expected
What can you say. Played 18 holes in under 4 hrs on a perfect Friday. Weather was nice. Patrons were as always pleasant.
Listen, I get it, this is not a TPC course, but its all you need to get out and hit a few. Its early spring and the summer grass hasn't hit the fairways, so its not lush in the middle like you'd want, but really, the traps are mostly soft sand, the t-boxes were good and the greens very respectable; meanwhile the ponds are full of golf balls!
I like this course and will probably play it two or three more times this summer as normal.
C you out there!

Will play again, probably this week. Good place to swing a club and pitch and putt.
2 hours 18 holes...
Milton Country Club
Played On 09/10/2017Needs attention, but good atmosphere to whack it around.
First time playing this course. First off the people at the club house were splendidly pleasant. The ladies in the bar were very kind, thank you. While the man in the pro shop was as well a good experience.
Not my best round that is for sure, the course layout is nice. Makes you put your driver away and hit 3 w and 5 w some. The course is short from the Whites, but you still have to make the shots.
The greens were horrible, they need attention, the rough was too thick, lost several balls in that i couldn't find them just off the green.
Mow the grass and blow some leaves, its hard to find your ball in the fairway with leaves everywhere.
However, it was still good to get out and swing the clubs, played very quickly, and the other patrons were as well super nice.
Overall a pretty good atmosphere.
Sugar Hill Golf Club
Played On 08/27/2017Wonderful folks - Danielle is top notch
So, the course was as expected. Up hill, with some bends and what not.
The pace of play was slower than I'd like, but still done decent time. I was a single and there were a couple of three and fours that were playing "the PGA Open" style looking for every ball 50 yards in the woods, and not playing ready golf. Took a nap on the t-box two or three times.
But, Danielle the young lady working the office was beyond super nice. Very helpful and cheery! Great attitude, thank you for the help!
The starter was super nice as well. Very pleasant gentleman.
Yeah, I'll play it again.
West Pines Golf Club
Played On 07/26/2015Surprised
West Pines is a city owned course. Douglasville owns and operates it. I was pleasantly surprised by the conditions of the course and the friendliness of the people.
The course is open and forgiving in places. The greens were pretty good and the crew seemed to be around repairing divots and watering to keep them fresh.
I expected a 6 hour round of golf. Was prepared for the usual wait Atlanta weekend golf provides and was shocked by the pace of play. Our group consisted of a novice that shot in the 130's, a retiree that maxed 150 yrds and me. We let two groups play through generously but were never otherwise pushed and still finished in right at 4 hours.
I live an hours drive from the course and chose it to play with a friend living in the area. While I may never play the course again, it will not be because of the conditions.
By all means give this one a go for a moderate priced public course well worth it.
Thank you for your review of the course! We're glad you were pleasantly surprised with the pace of play. We hope you choose us again!
Lanier Golf Club
Played On 07/03/2015An Atlanta Gem
I shouldn't write this. Don't want too many people to regard this Lanier Course as favorably as me, but on a day that could have been a total rain out, was in fact a good round.
Played Lanier 4 or 5 times now. I like it and will play again. Fortunately for us, it rained all morning so many who booked probably didn't show. Except for being cart path only, we'd have been done in little over 3 hours.
Course is in good shape, the folks are pretty nice and hospitable.
Steel Canyon Golf Club
Played On 08/01/2014Good little prcatice course / club w/ rude help
I've played this course probably 20 - 30 times thru the years. And used the driving range maybe an equal number or more.
This course is exactly as you'd expect. Its a little rough. The greens are a C- and the wait for people to play on is forever.
On the flip side; the course is laid out nicely for what you get. Since most scoring on a regular course happens after your drive, this is an excellent course to work in pitching to the green's and working on ball placement relative to pin placement, etc.
Also, the patrons are normally nicer than nice. For example, a group of three allowed me to play thru on the 3rd hole; and another on the 14th. The people at the club house are normally beyond courteous. I did run into a rude person this time, and it was not normal. Was first time I'd seen him there and hopefully he shapes up or ships out.
Absent that one individual, I will return and play on. One moron, won't ruin this little course or my desire to grin and bare it.
Fore!

Played On 07/06/2014Decent course
The people a really nice. Decent course. Better than many in the area.
The pace of play was horrible. The ranger did not come around to encourage playing thru or such. We finally were able after waiting what seemed endlessly. Made a 3.5 hr course play near 5 hrs..
Sugar Hill Golf Club
Played On 11/29/2013First time visitor. Expected a lot more.
Okay, I get it. Its November 29th the day after Thanksgiving and all through the house the women were shopping and the men were golfing.
But, really. This course was horrid. The fairways were not blown - leaves everywhere. The Greens were PAINTED green and not rolled. I missed every single 10 ft or so putt as the ball bounced its way left and right ... left and right to the hole. After a while it was simply comical.
The pace of play was bad - way to slow. And no marshall out to encourage speedier play. Had a group in front playing from the "blue tees" driving the ball maybe 200 yrds and often out of bounds. They would have enjoyed their game from the Senior Tees but really - the Blues...
The People at the course were wonderful. Very nice and polite. Whoever did the hiring - did a great job. However, probably will not play Sugar Hill again unless the course is improved (really wouldn't take much attention to details) and the price is right. I'd rather play Collins Hill.
The Waynesville Inn Golf Resort & Spa - Dogwood/Blue Ridge
Played On 07/01/2013Surprising
What a very nice course tucked away in a wonderful little NC town. The staff was unbelievable nice and hospitable. This is a challenging course mostly because the small size of the greens and the slope once you get to putt. If you can hit these greens in regulation, you can play anywhere! I would definitely play Waynesville Inn again.
