Hilaman Park Municipal Golf Course

Affordable and Well Conditioned Course close to Downtown

The turf conditions are really good all around. Grass is green fairways and rough are well manicured. Most of the greens are firm and smooth. There is a restaurant on site. The only downside is the side of the driving range. As a result, you cannot use your driver on the range, but there are grass tees and it is also in good condition. All of this for 25 dollars on the weekdays and 40 on the weekends, I'll take it.

Decent and Beautiful course

Tees were great. Fairways were very good. With the exception of 7 the greens were pretty smooth and grown. Greens are square and tiny, so approach shots are tough. The best part of the course is that it is right along the Mississippi sound, so you get great views. The course is also divided by railroad tracks and there are also 3 par 5's in a row on the back 9.

Decent Resort Course

This course is right across the hotel we stayed in. The first and last are drivable from the back tees. The course is okay. The day we played the course, the greens and fairways were wet and every approach and tee shot just plugged. For an old course, it is decent for the price.

Small but strategic course

Bobby Jones is less than 600 yards. However, you have to be very strategic to do well of the course. The condition of the course was great. Greens were smooths and the grass was lush everywhere. My friend and I played 18 holes and it was nice to walk. The only issue with the course is there is no driving range. There are plans to make it a reversible 9 with a driving, but I think it is fine the way it is. Another thing is the close are very close together, so if you have not played the course it could be confusing. However, we did have a fun time.

Classic layout

Bobby Jones is an older type of course. It is 18 holes and par 70. The course is less than 6000 yards, but it requires lots of strategy and thinking. The grass around the course is lush and the greens are pretty smooth. The layout is confusing, but acceptable for a course this small. When using the GPS, 1 is 10 on the GPS and 10 is 1 etc. The only problem with the course is no driving range, but there is no space for it. There is just a chipping/putting green. In the end, I would return to play again.

Worst Greens to Putt ON

This course is 18 hole par 3 course. The holes are very similar and short. However, the greens are not mowed down properly making them slow and bumpy. I had several birdie putts that went to the hole and just stopped. Definitely not worth 17 dollars. I would not even play it for free.

Improving quickly

Fox creek is an executive course with many par 3s and few par 4s. The course is currently under new management, so it is undergoing some changes. Some of the changes are already great, for example the fairways are more lush. The bunkers are currently being redone, but in a few months the course will look great. Just give it time.

Nice course to play

River pines is a great course for anyone to play. It tough on the first time to understand the layout, but we had two playing partners who played it before. I would like to come again and try it out again.

Excellent Time and World Class

Bears Best is a collection of 18 holes from Jack Nicklaus designed courses. The first time my dad and I played it in January was almost unplayable due to the rain. We got a rain checked and were very pleased to use it. The condition of the course is the best I seen. I would love to return.

Some of the changes are already great, for example the fairways are more lush. The bunkers are currently being redone, but in a few months the course will look great. The greens are the best to putt on in the Atlanta area. This course will be in prime condition during the summer months.

Ok Course in Atlanta

Course conditions are average. The layout could be confusing if you are a first timer. It will be a good course to get a proper round of golf in.

New golf course that is great

This course just opened up to the public. The clubhouse is just a trailer. But the course is one of the best to play in Atlanta. It is very challenging for the average golfer and requires multiple rounds in order to get better scores. However, I would highly recommend this course to anyone in the Atlanta area.

Great course

This is one of the best public courses in Atlanta. The only thing I would complain about is the sandy greens on the white nine. Otherwise, this course is a must play for golfers in Atlanta.

Awesome course for a vacation

Turf of the golf course resembled that of a championship. Golf cart had issues, but was given a new one right away. Vista is like a normal layout, Dunes is like a links. Weather turned nasty at the beginning of Dunes, but it was a great golfing experience for a vacation.
