Greens are BAD
Course was very wet, greens were very bad, had aeration holes,no sand and black algea.
Late Afternoon Round
As always, the course was in good condition and the price was good for a 2:40pm teetime. Played as a single and was able to get all 19s in. I will pay again.
Great Golf Course!
Love playing there! Greens and fairways are always "green" and well kept! Beautiful, scenic looking fairways Roughs could use a little more upkeep, but we love the course! Staff is always very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this course for all levels of golfers!
Disappointing
Played here several times in the past. It’s now in poor condition- weeds all over the fairways and greens in bad shape
Great golf
The course was very well laid out, loved the paved cartpath to get to each hole ( first time playing course).
Well maintained manicured course.
Return to old favorite
Return visit after not playing this course in more than a decade. Course was in excellent condition as it was the last time I played it.
Fairways greens and tee boxes are in great shape. Probably need to get a clean up crew and get all the pine cones and brush off the side of the fairways it’s a little bit too thick. Other than that was awesome
Beautifully maintained like Augusta
Found the fairways and greens in amazing condition during dry season, with plenty of water on everything to keep them green! Don't forget the bug spray though this time of year. Price nudged up a bit, but still great deal for $45
Challenging but enjoyable.
Course was in great shape for early spring. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to camping here next year for a longer stay so I can play more golf here. The greens fee with a cart for senior is great!
Scenic, well designed course
Small elevated greens are challenging to hit. It would help to have a few more yardage markers in the fairway. Overall a fair course and enjoyable to play.
Nice Course
Course as good for a sunny day in February.
Have played there several times before. Three of our foursome were seniors and we were disappointed you cant get your normal senior discount when booking tee times online. We will not make that mistake again.
Not only do you not get the discount you have to pay a "Convenience" fee?? Not very convenient if you ask me.
Basic State Park Course
I have played three other Georgia State Park Courses, and even though this was touted as a "Resort" course, the facilities and course were basically the same as others in the park system, and in some cases, inferior. I arrived early for my tee time to get ready, and hits some balls on the range. I was told that they didn't have any range balls. I gathered up a few balls that were lying behind the cart path at the range just to warm up a bit. Joined up with a couple, who were very nice, but a bit slow. The course conditions were average, and greens were bumpy. It was a decent layout with some funky holes. Probably my least favorite of the four State Park Courses I have played so far. The other three are Arrowhead Pointe, Highland Walk, and Hard Labor Creek.
Love playing state park courses
So glad the greens are smooth, had trouble reading them but they putted really good
Great course, great value
This was a great course. Winter has taken a toll on the course but they are doing a great job during the winter months. We took advantage of the reduced rates at certain times of the day. Have wanted to play this course for a long time and I finally got a chance. The course did not disappoint
