Great course! Wow. OK, paid $115 to play, which is high for N. Atlanta, but incrediable. My friend James said it was his favorite place to play, and I now know why. This course is designed by Jack N. and he select from all over the world his favorite holes for courses he designed, and built it - so cool. Every hole is different, and they even truck-in black sand from MT for a hole they copied from a course up there b/c it is the local sand type. Design is ever changing, very very vacation & speacial event worthy, and b/c they charge so much, the really provide a nice gap between groups. It was crowded with no pressure for pace which was great. Nice change, caddies are optional. Now for the only downer - the greens were incrediable conditions yet for the type of players and caddies on the course daily - there were way too many ball mark scars. Wish that was not the case, but it did not hurt the putt, just was surprising. New favorite for N. Atl.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again
