The Georgia Trail at Sugarloaf

This place was horrible. I book my tee time a week in advanced. $ 20 which included green fees and cart rental. Well I got a confirmation email from them the day before changing my reservation to a walking not a cart rental. When I get there the next day, they refused to honor my original reservation. When I thought I was paying $ 20 total, I ended up paying $ 32. They charged $ 6 per person on a cart rental. My second issue with this place is the driving range is next to the hole on the first hole. As we were putting, we were dodging golf balls. Last the condition of the overall course was terrible. Looks like there was next to no maintenance done on this course. There were literally ant mounds on nearly ever green. I guess you ge0t WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

I know they are doing green maintenence but do you really have to leave large rolls of sod all over the course. Terrible conditions not going back

Cheap price… maybe. They charge $ 10 for 9 holes normally but I’ve caught specials at better courses in the area for $ 19 for 18 holes. So it’s not really «cheap.» Then you have the quality issue. Bumpy, ratty, patchy greens covered with geese crap aren’t helping anyone’s golf game. I’ve heard of water hazards and sand traps but feces obstacles? Booo. I caught this on a $ 5 special so that made me try it. I’d only play this course for the $ 5 special for practice.
Maybe I went on a bad day? Fairways are a little tight and the grass is very long on the fairways. Finding your ball is difficult.

These guys have done a great job of creating a complete golf setting that’s accessible to the not-​necessarily-​hardcore golfer. The clubhouse, patio bar, and putt putt course are well done. The course itself has some challenges. Golfers who don’t have control can lose balls on this course due to the water hazards and narrow fairways. I’ve noticed they recently upgraded holes 5 and 9, raising the greens up which requires a more precise approach shot. I’ve seen the greens in various states (better /​worse), and I know not to play this course after heavy rains because it doesn’t drain well. But, when it’s dry, is there better value for the money? I don’t think so.

Flat, unadventurous, and family-​friendly. There’s nothing wrong with GT@S, but there’s nothing to really recommend either. I scored a great deal using an online booking site so it was certainly worth the money, but I would definitely not pay full price to play here.
Just enough distance wedged in to make it enjoyable. The holes tend to get shorter as you proceed, which is kind of disappointing. Drainage is so-​so; to be honest, I’m more surprised than anything these days when I find an Atlanta metro course with *good* drainage. There were a few geese here and there, but they didn’t get in the way.
I do wish that there were a map on the flip side of the score card or on the cart. Anything besides having to stop at the sign before each hole, really, would be an improvement.
It’s about as public as it gets, so you will probably encounter slow play and a galling lack of etiquette. While I was teeing off on hole 8, the foursome on hole 2 was whippin’ up a yelling storm, running all over the course… it was out of hand. Marshal? In your dreams.
All in all, an enjoyable afternoon to kick around and not care too much about anything in particular.

The course was very wet and swampy. Not enjoyable at all

An ideal place for newbie golfers. Come as you are, since I have seen folks in jeans, jean shorts, t shirts, football jerseys and etc. A very casual and laid back golf experience.
There are 9 holes in this course, but you can play it twice for just $ 10 more. Each hole is rather short, mostly par 3’s. Which makes this ideal for the newbie golfer to learn iron play and the shorter distance per hole will help accelerate gameplay.
The experienced golfer may be frustrated since pace of play is very slow. There will be a lot of newbies and on two occasions, nearly got skulled with an errant ball.
The condition of the course is so-​so. I played when the leaves are falling and that means a hard time finding your golf ball, even if its in the middle of the fairway. I am hoping they will have maintenance blow those leaves away. The greens were also littered with leaves. making putting a challenge.
The best part about this place is the new restaurant and patio outside. They have 2 bars, one upstairs with a covered patio to keep you warm. and another bar downstairs if you can to be outside. YOu can have a beer outside while your kids play mini golf.
I think the restaurant and patio is much better than the 9 holes.

Nice par 3 course. I think it will be even nicer with remodel and addition of the par 5 holes.

Wow! What a treat. This golf corse /​Restaurant is great. My father owned a restaurant on a golf course when I was growing up, so I understand how hard it can be to please everyone in this environment. They have succeeded with a wonderful restaurant with great food, A gorgeous club house, a beautiful course, and an actual scaled down mini golf of the Augusta golf course. Do not underestimate the difficulty of this «mini golf» course. I did not get to play the regular golf course but did get to take a lesson from Pro Ernie, and I actually learned something new! What a great coach. The menu is full of surprises. Everything I have tried has been wonderful. I scheduled a party for my daughter soccer team, and they handled our large group of parents and players with ease. I highly recommend the Georgia Trail!
