If I gave Country Land Golf Course three stars (by the hair of its chinny chin chin, by the way),…read morethen I have to give neighbor Hampton Golf Village four stars. It would be an injustice, otherwise. It took me over 16 years to make it back out here. I'd completely forgotten everything about this course, so revisiting it was like playing a new course again. I think I first played this course circa 2001-02. However, unlike my previous round here in 2005, which I had recorded for handicap purposes at the time, I have no evidence of that first round. Hampton Golf Village opened in 2000. Off the top of my head, I can't think of many public or semi-private 18-hole courses in metro Atlanta that opened in the 2000s or later. Echelon and The Frog, two of my favorites (especially The Frog), come to mind. For most metro Atlantans, unless you live in/around Alpharetta and north, Hampton Golf Village in Cumming is a hike. From my home in Midtown, in light traffic, this course was a solid 50-minute drive each way. Is the drive worth it? Sure, every once in a while, I wouldn't mind playing this course. However, in the same price tier, there are plenty of other courses I'd rather play that are within a 50-minute drive of my home. Unlike Country Land, though, Hampton Golf Village is "worthy" of being put in my golf rotation. We were charged $64 per person for our weekend morning tee time. I also paid $4.67 for a small bucket of range balls. After 7% tax, the total was $73.48 for a round and range balls. For the quality of course, service, clubhouse, and amenities, I thought this was "par for the course" and reasonable. Medium and large buckets of range balls were available too. For the range, you could either pay in the clubhouse where they give you a pin number or swipe your card at the range ball dispenser. During my visit, the range was mats only. The range balls were a grab bag of range ball brands. In general, the balls were pretty worn out and are probably due for replacement soon (if it hasn't happened already). There was a large practice putting green (good size) and a separate chipping green. There is not a practice bunker. If you're booking a tee time here, I would call the golf shop to book. If you book online via Hampton Golf Village's website, you'll have to pay a nonrefundable fee. When I looked, the nonrefundable fee was $2.49 per golfer. So yeah, definitely call to book and that way, you won't be charged any booking or convenience fee. Scott took my reservation over the phone and he was nice. Shaun checked us in. Good service from those guys. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the food and beverage cart girl. Out of the hundreds of rounds I've played in my lifetime, I can't say I've ever encountered a cart girl like the one I last had here. She had a bad attitude and didn't seem to be interested in her job. Maybe she was having a bad day and/or getting turned down by group after group. Some times she drove by, literally paid no attention to us, and kept on trucking. After the first time that happened, we didn't want to buy anything from her for the rest of the round. I realize this was probably a one-off experience, but I had to mention it. The clubhouse has a spacious dining room as well as an upper level patio that overlooks part of the 18th hole, the pond ("Reservoir 59") in the distance, practice green, and driving range. The golf shop is small, but gets the job done. The men's restroom - and clubhouse, in general - have a "nicer" feel to it, but this is by no means a fancy country club or anything like that. I don't think there are any locker rooms. I think the cart barn is underneath the clubhouse. During our visit, the cart fleet consisted of basic Yamaha EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) carts. They did have simple GPS old-school LCD screens attached to the steering columns. They provided accurate front, middle, and back yardage distances to greens, so that was definitely a plus. As for the course itself, I thought the layout/design and fun factor were decent. This is a very hilly course with lots of bridges, some neighborhood snaking (but not much), and zero water hazards. The lack of water contributes to this not being the most scenic course, but there are a few nice mountain/hill views and the tree-lined Hampton Park Drive, that runs parallel to hole 11, is beautiful too. The par is 71 with yardage and rating/slope 6,903 yards and 72.8/137 from the tips. We played from the whites: 6,051 yards, 67.9/128. The conditions were fair for a daily fee course in this price tier. There were lots of ball marks on the greens, which was disappointing. Some of the tee boxes were pretty beat up, but the fairways and bunkers were in good shape, overall. There were no sand bottles on the carts, but there were sand buckets with shovels on the par-3 tee boxes (which probably most golfers here do not use; I did). On a busy Sunday with a stacked tee sheet, our pace of play was brisk at 4 hours 20 minutes.

I came here with a friend who was visiting from out of town and we decided with the dicey weather,…read morewe would try to get some bowling in while also looking at playing some video games. From my last visit with family, we had a lot of playing cards and credits/tickets on a bunch. Judith was working at the ticket station and was kind enough to help us understand how to combine the leftovers and make one master card to hold all the tickets. We also were advised to hold onto the empty ones so they could be refilled when family come back to Cumming for Thanksgiving weekend! Walking over to the bowling desk, Carl was helpful in getting us set up and grabbing a lane that we wanted, close to the wall. Lance 1 was out of order, so we got a couple games in on lane 2. With two people it was very affordable, instead of paying by the hour for cosmic bowling. Less than $30 which is a great deal. Afterwards, we decided to play the Marvel coin and card game that my brother and I started in May. We spent the good part of an hour just trying to collect the missing cards for sets that we could get. Both my friend and I sat there for about 75 minutes. One machine went down twice, but Nate came over and made some adjustments and we were able to continue without losing credits or time. Nate knew what he was doing since both times we were back and playing within a couple minutes. As we were in a rush to get going for our dinner plans, we walked back to the counter and Andrew explained how to redeem full sets of the (9 total per set) Marvel cards for 3,000 tickets. Individually the cards are worth 50 tickets each. Andrew was patient and explained our options as well, in order for us to know the best way to set up my nieces and nephew the next time we come back to bowl and play games together as a family. Thanks to the team here for making sure my friend and I had a great time. It was a Monday afternoon and there was a deal Judith told us about after 4 PM. So we had a great time. Thank you Stars and Strikes! So fun!

Plenty of parking since it was a Sunday afternoon, and it was cloudy with sporadic rain nearby, making the need to prepay for a booth unnecessary, since we were early and they had plenty of booths. Oh well, kind of disappointed they still charged us for that. We booked booth 216 for 90 minutes, Taylor K was our server and checked in on us to see if we needed any help getting started. We for a couple drinks and started our playing a few different games. With two people we play quickly, so we had a lot of fun. I ordered pretzel bites as a snack while playing and we didn't stop until the time was up. Easy to pay our tab, we had gift cards and Taylor helped us get it sorted out. Any leftovers we gave to him, along with a cash tip. Great location, near lots of options for food- but drinks and food are good here! Great for entertaining, great for big groups. Thanks Taylor for a great visit! We will be back- love booth 216.

When twilight settled on Topgolf's lanes, Where laughter…read moreechoed through friendly games, A sudden crash cut through the cheer-- A thousand shards lay sparkling near. The crowd stood still, unsure what to do, As danger quietly, swiftly grew. But forward stepped two steady souls: Chase and Taylor, true to their roles. With practiced care, Chase marked the scene, Keeping every pathway clean. He warned each guest with calm command, Protecting all with watchful hand. Beside him knelt wise Taylor then, A student forged in science's pen. His biomedical studies taught How unseen hazards must be fought. He knew that tiny glass unseen Could wound where surfaces looked clean. He checked the area inch by inch, Not letting caution ever flinch. Together, broom and dustpan raised, They worked while onlookers watched amazed. Each fragment gathered, every gleam, Until the floor was safe and clean. The evening carried on once more, With joyful shots and cheerful score. Yet something greater filled the air-- A quiet lesson born from care. For those who saw remembered well The simple story they would tell: That heroism need not be loud, Nor seek applause from any crowd. A careful act can spread its light, Turning strangers toward what's right. Neighbors lent helping hands with pride, Choosing kindness over stride. Communities grew just a bit stronger, People looked out for one another longer. Schools taught service, teams stood tall, Inspired by two who served them all. So if one day you hear the glass Shatter where the people pass, Remember Chase and Taylor's way-- Lead with courage every day. For greatness often starts, it's true, Not in deeds the whole world knew, But in cleaning up what others flee, With knowledge, heart, and dignity.

The 2nd star comes from their pricing. It IS slightly less than other trampoline parks in the area…read more I've left feedback to this business before about their lack of sustenance available for purchase. I came back today because of the price and that last time we were here, I was allowed to bring outside snacks in for my children. I don't know about your kids, but mine usually like a snack when expelling large amounts of energy (such as trampoline jumping). A small selection of chips, granola bars, juice, or even vending machines with non-sugary snacks (that work) would be helpful. I was not allowed to bring snacks in this time unless I paid a $50 surcharge for outside food. I'm sure this is because some jerk didn't clean up after themselves, but because of this we will not be back unless something changes. You're losing business from the responsible many because you were inconvenienced by the few. So, a good dusting, some way to get snacks for kids, and/or a different outside food policy would earn back out business.

We came during the week so we basically had the whole place to ourselves, which was good since my nephews wanted us to climb up the towers and go down the slides with them.

I can't speak to how it is on a weekend when I'm sure it's much busier and louder, but the weekday trip was a huge win--though I was definitely sore the next day The prices are also really reasonable and allow for in and out privileges. They have security measures that make it so the adult that came with each child must be with them for them to exit, which is another great feature.
