Lake Spivey Golf Club

Detailed description of Lake Spivey Golf Club

Lake Spivey Golf Club is a Semi-Private, 18 hole golf course located south of Atlanta in Jonesboro, Georgia. Head south of the Airport at exit 228 off I-75, then west to Spivey Road, then south 1/2 mile. The course is routed through an established residential community with mostly tree lined fairways.

Lake Spivey Golf Course was designed by D.J. DeVictor. The course first opened 9-holes in 1963, The Hillside Course. The 9-hole Lakeside Course opened in 1973. A third 9=holes, The Clubhouse Course opened in 1987.

The 27 -hole facility was reconfigured as an 18-hole golf course in 2007. The best of the Lakeside 9 and The Hillside 9 were combined to form 9 holes. Together with the Clubhouse 9, the updated layout is the current 18-hole Lake Spivey Golf Course. This more modern layout has 5 sets of tees playing from 4,800 yards to 6,800 yards, with the middle tees at 6,000 yards

The front 9 starts is a good warm-up to the much more difficult back 9. There's some good risk/reward holes, a nice change of pace short and long holes, and there's water in play on a number of holes, The greens are small to mid-sized, quick and undulating.
