My first time to play Candler Hills. I am a member of a club just down the road but have heard good things about Candler so I gave it a look - not disappointed. I was greeted at the bag drop by name and checked in by the assistant pro. I made a fourth in a threesome of buddies - really nice guys. The practice areas are in super condition. Fairways are generous (and in good shape) even though sand was in play on almost every tee shot. I heard there are 88 bunkers; I found one off the tee and three around the greens. Sand was perfect. Rough is relatively short and easy to play out of. The greens are nearly perfect (I would guess around a ten on the stemp meter) and are quite large with plenty of elevation changes. Loved the few hills this course offers. The pace of play was surprisingly quick at 3:50 for my foursome. The ranger came around twice to ensure pace was maintained. I really appreciated all the staff and will definitely come back. This course will not beat you up, no water hazards. All in all it was quiet enjoyable.
