Steel Canyon is all about expectations…read more You need to know that Steel Canyon is located in the middle of a large power grid near Morgan Falls. Using this space for golf and reclaiming it rather than it just sitting there for power lines is actually quite smart. For the cost for two of us to play and a cart ($65), it was a great Sunday golf outing. Sure the course isn't in the best shape. Yes, I would prefer to the tee box to not have AstroTurf and a manhole cover open. However, I wasn't expecting "country club" and Steel Canyon delivers in a fun, shorter course that is great for starters and practice. The staff is friendly enough and it is a relaxed atmosphere. You won't feel rushed or judged if you are just starting our or simply just looking to have fun.

I think there needs to be a rule against courses hiring starters over the age of 70. 9 A.M. tee…read moretime and partner no-shows. I approach the starter and let him know and he says I HAVE to join another group, and I quote "we don't do solos on the weekends." Keep in mind this is a par 61 course in trash condition. I let the front desk know I will not be playing and why and the guy is like???? What? That shouldn't be an issue playing solo. I AGREE! But the 75-year-old starter INSISTED "We don't do that on the weekends." Terrible service and no common sense whatsoever from the starter, it's HIS way or the highway! Usual behavior from people that age, He must own the place the way he was acting. Don't waste your time or money here

I played a round here on a Wednesday via a Golfnow.com deal. I wasn't expecting much for what I…read morepaid ($25ish), but man oh man.... What a nice golf course. They have a 27 hole layout, and you play two nines for a full round. Basically, if I were to go there a lot, I wouldn't play the same round every time, due to changing the order I play. The pro shop is unique, seeing as it is a big red barn. There were several scenic holes, and I was there for sunset. The sunset rivaled some of my favorite ones on the beach. Be near the clubhouse for sunset. Big sky, green grass, flags gently blowing as the sun sinks down. For the actual golf, I couldn't believe how fast the greens were rolling on a Wednesday, it seemed like they had them groomed for a tourney! I can't putt worth a crap on fast greens, so I played a little worse than normal. The course is challenging, and I really enjoyed the layout. I had a gallery at one point, even- A couple of horses sticking their head over the fence watching my tee shot! I'll definitely be back, and is not too far of a drive out of town for a solid round of man's number one frustration (outside of women, of course).

For the money, Bradshaw Farm in Woodstock is a good public course. There are three nines here: Red,…read moreWhite, and Blue. The two nines you play can change depending on how the pro shop has scheduled tee times for the day. I've played Bradshaw several times over the years and have usually wound up playing the Red and Blue nines. From the blue tees, the Red measures 3,128 yards, the White 3,286 yards, and Blue 3,153 yards, so it's not a terribly long course. It's moderately difficult and I think somewhat beginner-friendly for a standard full-length course. There are a lot of hills and elevation changes, some of which are quite steep. The first tee on the Red nine has quite the drop which makes that drive a lot of fun. The most memorable hole to me is the 9th on Red. It's a long par 4 which goes downhill then back up to a steeply elevated green. The view is cool because overlooking the green way above is the clubhouse and golf cart storage building. At the time of writing this review, Bradshaw's public rates are $42, Monday through Thursday, $55 on Friday, and $65 on weekends and holidays. You can find good deals online through various websites like GolfNow and TeeOff.com. For example, I was able to book a Friday round here for $45 using TeeOff.com, a $10 savings off the regular rate. These websites also offer various discounts and promos throughout the year so you can save even more money on the already discounted tee times. It should be noted, however, that the tee times available on these websites can sometimes be more limited than what you can get by directly calling the pro shop. Overall, the condition of the course is decent. The greens are the best part. They are Champion Dwarf Bermudagrass (installed in 2012-13), the same grass that is now used at the club I grew up playing at (High Point Country Club - Willow Creek, also installed around the same time). The last time I played here, the greens were in great shape. They rolled true. The fairways were OK and the rough was cut short. The brown-red sand in the bunkers had more of a hard, dense, clay-like consistency as opposed to the drier, white, "fluffy" sand. Not bad though. I was still able to hit out of them with my usual sand shot. There's a big driving range and one practice putting green and short game area. Like some of the tee shots here, the driving range is located on what feels like a cliff, so you are hitting shots down into a valley. It's mats only at the range and range balls (not included) are dispensed from a machine outside the pro shop. When you purchase range balls, you'll be given a code to enter into the machine. A small bucket costs about $4-5. I'm not a fan of the golf carts here. They're old. Several have worn out tires and the carts' turning and handling is not good. These carts are definitely showing their wear and age. Also, no GPS and towels are not provided. Neither are tees, ball markers, repair tools, etc, but to be expected at the rates they charge. What Bradshaw does have, which I love and think every golf course should have, is one of those compressed air guns. They're great for blowing grass, dirt, sand, and other stuff out of your shoes, socks, skin, etc. Also, the restrooms out on the course are satisfactory. The clubhouse itself looks like a giant red barn. Very distinctive. The clubhouse has a nice view of the first hole on Red. The pro shop is small and basic. The restaurant and bar is also no-frills. The grill offers food like breakfast sandwiches, Danishes, muffins, hamburgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, and fries each under $6. The bar serves liquor. The staff I've encountered have been friendly, polite, and helpful. That goes for the guys in the pro shop to the cart girls. Marshals? Not sure I've ever seen one or had one say anything to me. In the end, Bradshaw Farm gets 3 Yelp "A-OK" stars out of me.

For having lived here 12 years, it's a wonder to have never played here. Only 17 mins from my…read moreHouse. The Fairways of Canton is an appreciated course. I like the fact that it's nestled in a rolling hilly layout with some really interesting tee shots. I particularly liked two, one was a rather steep high tee box reaching to a 198 yard par three. The other was a long par 5 dog leg right that cradles the water and the first shot off the tee is a rather blind shot. The damage was for 55 dollars for an 11 am tee time on weds is not too bad. It usually goes up to 10-15 dollars more on the weekend. Cart is included, however the cart is monitored via satellite and make sure you pay attention because one erroneous turn on what you would think a 90 degree fairway turn has become a cart path only and your cart is locked down. Stuck and unable to move until either you put it in reverse or wait one long dreadful minute. To allow you to return to the cart path. That was the worse part of it. I dislike this because some people who never played there before certainly have a common sense approach to playing golf, not to mention they have fairway Marshalls or starters to oversee and support others. GRRR. I would return here to ask more questions about which holes are limited to drive on.

Amazing course for the money. Great views, well kept, and pace of play was great, and cart were…read morenice.

Unacceptable Customer Service - Rude, Discriminatory Behavior…read more If I could give zero stars, I would. I had the absolute worst customer service experience at Lanier Legacy Golf Club, and it was nothing short of humiliating and infuriating. On March 8th, I booked a 3:00 PM tee time for my wife and her sister. Due to heavy rain, I called the pro shop, and a kind and professional male staff member issued an 18-hole rain check, which I appreciated. However, when I called today to use that rain check, I was met with the most unprofessional, rude, and outright hostile treatment from a staff member named Leah Stephenson (spelling may be incorrect). From the moment she picked up the phone, she was aggressive, dismissive, and condescending. She: Constantly interrupted me while I was speaking. Raised her voice at me for absolutely no reason. Refused to listen or assist me properly and instead transferred my call without helping. Treated me with an attitude that felt blatantly discriminatory. It's truly disgusting that a golf course with such a good reputation allows this kind of horrible customer service to take place. I couldn't help but feel that I was treated this way because I am Asian and an international guest. This was my first experience with this level of rudeness and discrimination since moving to Atlanta, and I am still in shock that a business like this allows such behavior to continue unchecked. If Lanier Legacy Golf Club actually cares about its reputation, they need to: Implement serious customer service training so this NEVER happens again. Ensure all guests--regardless of nationality--are treated with basic human decency. I will make sure that everyone I know hears about this disgraceful experience. I will also be reporting this incident to management and any relevant authorities to ensure this club is held accountable for discriminatory and unprofessional practices. Avoid this place if you expect even the bare minimum of respect. If you're not a local, prepare to be treated as if you don't belong.

I don't know how many people use yelp to find a golf course but Lanier Islands Legacy golf course…read moreis definitely one of the best courses in GA. I absolutely love this course. The quality of the course, staff, practice facility, carts, food is A1. First off, I ain't gonna lie it's expensive! But good news is you do get range balls with your greens fees and unlimited snacks/ soft drinks!!!(my favorite). Yes I said unlimited. I'm sure if you go in there and fill bags up with stuff they might say something but you get it. Second off, driving range and putting green = phenomenal. Third off and most important , the course..... is so beautiful. I'm a serious golfer (4 handicap) so my feelings might be different than others. The actual layout of the course is pretty difficult but the scenery is grand. In order to score great on this course you do have to play smart and have a strategy. I suggest to pay attention to everything before swinging! Keep in mind the greens are FAST. Last suggestion, if you're not the best golfer bring lots of balls because there is a ton of water on this course and get some practice in before hand! If you truly play the course a lot of shots will require you to get the ball in the air. Fourth. Besides the snacks and the absolutely beautiful golf course, I LOVE the way they start you out. Basically most courses just give you the keys to the cart and tell you to get. Here, the first hole is a distance away from the clubhouse so when the starter feels as if the tee box is cleared he will explain the course / rules with your group, give you the keys to the cart, and tell you to get on with it. And I absolutely loveeeeee that. It allows your group to be at the tee box without anyone causing distractions.Love it!!! Last time we were out here the course was quite backed up. The Marshall was constantly trying to get the people in front of us moving and he kept stopping by to apologize to us. The quality of service at Lanier is awesome. They truly make you feel special and that's why I love going back and throwing my money at them. This is by far my favorite course I've ever played at in GA and other states. I hope the review was helpful for the one person that might read this ! If you go play, good luck!
