The park seem to be going under a lot of construction so we didn't stay , lots of guys were doing construction around the park just as well a few areas had some caution tape up i guess because the area was not safe, only positive right now i can say is this little park as well seems to have a water park area for the kids to play we are in winter so we also couldn't see that . The park also had a event going on where they seem to be passing out food for families in need i love that and was also able to join to line for a few things i believe they do it once a month I'm not sure . Hopefully next time we will have more to say I'll be back once they are finished fixing the park hopefully soon.

There's rooms for business meetings and parties in this large suburban club. Members are typically big golfers and while it's not CCC or Sugarloaf, it's solid from what I hear! Definitely a nice spot to go if you're invited for any reason.

After being absolutely trounced in a tennis match on New Year's Eve 2012, I made a promise to…read moremyself that 2013 would be my year to become a better player. Then I kind of forgot about my promise. Cut to the beginning of 2014: I was finally ready to realize my dreams as an amazing tennis player....or at least be able to hit a serve into that square on the other side of the net. No one in my circle seemed to have time to wedge in a practice with me so I turned to Craigslist and promptly found a dozen strangers who were interested in the game. I consulted Google and ended up using an old-school (but surprisingly helpful) website (www.tennismaps.com) to locate tennis courts between me and my newly found practice partners who hailed from everywhere from Midtown to Buford. That site landed me at the beautiful Hudlow Tennis Center, improbably located just off of Jimmy Carter Blvd, not too far from where it intersects with Buford Highway. Hudlow Tennis Center is a part of Best Friend Park, a 43-acre public park that also contains a playground, a trail, outdoor basketball courts and 2 outdoor pools, baseball fields, indoor badminton courts and a gym amongst it's sprawling grounds. The tennis courts are located towards the back of the property and seem to almost run into a residential street just behind them. There is an actual staffed tennis center that's open during the week until 9:00pm and on weekends until 6:00pm. The center was already closed for the day when I visited on a late Sunday afternoon so I was unable to go inside and explore. From what I could see, it was a well-kept facility with a lobby area that sold drinks and supplies. There were also full bathrooms (showers included) on the inside of the facility. There are 17 lighted courts on the premises. Courts 1-4, located directly to the right of the Tennis Center, supposedly stay lit until 11:00 or 12:00 each night -- this is really cool considering that most courts close up shop by 9:00pm each night. The other 13 courts are located slightly off to the left of the center, just past one of the trails that winds through the park. My impression of the place was that it was a gorgeous, little-used, well-maintained treasure hidden in an unlikely place. The courts were very clean and well-lit. The benches inside the courts and bleachers outside were in great shape. Parking was ample. I felt completely safe in this beautiful park and was almost surprised when I saw a cop car slowly patroling the area. To further sweeten the deal, we didn't have to pay court rental fees because we came on a weekend after the center had closed (after 6:00pm). Normally, the court fees here are $5/hr for singles play and $14 for 2 hours of doubles play. The only downsides I noted was that there didn't appear to be a practice wall and that I wasn't able to locate an external restroom facility in the vicinity of the courts. After having played at another facility a few days before where I had to park far away and pay $20 for 90 minutes of play on a dusty, dirty clay court, this place was like a little unexpected miracle. I have a feeling that I'm going to be logging many hours of play at Hudlow Tennis Center this year, as I prepare to take on my in-laws again during Christmas 2014! http://www.gwinnettcounty.com/portal/gwinnett/Departments/CommunityServices/ParksandRecreation/AdultAthletics#tennis

This is a fabulous venue for an outdoor wedding. My daughter had her wedding here in October and…read moreit was lovely. Before the wedding my daughter worked out all of the details with Amelia, the TPC event coordinator.. About four or five months before the wedding; the bride, groom, and both mothers met for a tasting so that we could choose the menu for the day. We were given a few appetizers, and a few entrées to sample family style. Everything was very good, and we narrowed it down to 3 main dinner options. One of the things we really liked about this venue is that they have a bridal suite upstairs where the bridal party and both mothers could get ready. It was a nice space with lots of room for hair, makeup, and changing. There was a small patio overlooking the parking where we could watch as guests arrived. There was a parlor downstairs with a pool table and flatscreen TVs where the groom, groomsmen, and dads could hang out and relax before the ceremony. The clubhouse itself is full of southern charm with its majestic white columned exterior and red tile roof. The back view is just as attractive as the front with its well manicured lawn that over looks a lake and several fancy estate homes. There is also a wide patio that overlooks the back lawn which was perfect for our cocktail reception and then later became a cigar bar. Inside is very spacious. There is a foyer with a spiral staircase where we displayed photographs and served champagne while the guests were starting to arrive. We had about 150 guests and there was plenty of room for tables, 2 bars, and a spacious dance floor in the ballroom. TPC Sugarloaf really lends itself to weddings because of its size and its beauty; inside and out. There are so many great spots for wedding photos. It is a great option if you are looking for an elegant setting and Amelia and her staff are ready to assist with every detail.

ITA is a fabulous new addition to the Atlanta tennis (and pickleball) scene. Actually, to be…read morecompletely fair, this center is a Pickleball club with tennis as kind of the side gig... to quote Seinfeld: "not that there's anything wrong with that." The facility is beautifully designed and the courts are as top-notch as you might think, with the funky and ominous (read: abandoned) Presidential Hotel as part of the scenery. Couple of critiques here are as follows: the parking allocation is not nearly enough for the amount of visitors here on a daily/nightly basis. I'm hoping the owners will consider expanding that at a later date. also, the court lights are too low and, during night play, the ball gets lost if goes above them. kind of a big miss to make the light poles as short as they are, but I suppose that could be improved in the future as well. Overall, though, having access to covered courts is a luxury we're not really used to in the city. and it's great! Looking forward to future improvements to an already great facility.
