Worth the trip!

I live near chateau elan and wanted a change of scenery. Hot deal and course conditions made it well worth the 55 minute drive.
Can't wait until next time. .

Fun layout

Course is in good shape and drying out. Greens are a little slow but think they haven't been cut in a day or so, still rolling nice.. A few to many ball marks not repaired which most semi-private or private courses seem to have. Come on members, know you are wealthy, but bend over and repair your divits :). Great lay out, allows you to work the ball off the tee fade or draw. If you are hitting well you should go low here.

Spectacular

NO other course offers the amenities, sights, sounds or Green to Tee quality of Achasta! I felt like I was on tour with the amazing conditions. Don't worry about the long drive. You'll be glad you went.

Amazing course

Conditions were excellent which is a nice change from most courses around here this spring. Fairways are lush and the greens are rolling very well. With the discount I got to play here it makes it a no brainer. Will be back for sure. We played the blues which is fair and challenging. Only thing I would have liked to have was a pin chart on the cart. Had no idea where the pins were but I always shoot at the middle anyway so not really that important for my level.

Excellent course

I had driven by Achasta numerous times, and had always wanted to play it. It did not disappoint in any way. It was a great layout that was in great shape. Greens were not all that fast, but rolled extremely true and smooth. Pace of play was also great, unlike most public courses closer to Atlanta.

Raw Georgia Beauty

The beauty of the georgia foothills is all this course! The course winds back and forth across a stream 12 times making the hazard in play on more holes than not. Frankly, I should have played one tee forward. Greens did have some disease, but understandable with the winter here. Definetly at least 4.5 stars

Course conditions still dormant

So for the golf now price this place was a good deal. The greens were in good condition but the fairways were still very brown. It had several damp areas on the fairway as well.

Played on April 23, 2014

The course was in pretty good shape considering that the bermuda still is just starting to get growing. The greens were very quick but the pace of play was great. Only waited on 3 holes before hitting our shots.

This is a very good course in the valley of the mountains and is certainly worth the trip out to Dahlonega.

Nice day

Course in good shape. Greens punched but very close. Should be perfect in couple weeks. A few bunkers have sand spilling out over edge where groomer drives in and out. Very busy on sat. Pace very slow. Until ranger got on some groups. Faster on back. Will be back. Staff very friendly. Not like some places where they act like their doing you a favor to play there.

Very golden bear; technical, strategic

I played as a walk on with two players that knew the course. This saved me shots when I listened to their advice. I will definitely put this course on my top ten in Georgia.

North Georgia Gem

Achasta is a great golf course. It is one of my favorites no matter what time of year you play. The staff is great and the clubhouse is very nice too. Make a trip to Dahlonega to check it out.

Great course

Love the course and the layout. Worth the drive to play this gem. Went after all the rain, a few of the holes were pretty soggy, but overall in great shape. Greens were excellent, rolling true. Will definitely be playing here again. Was able to book a hot tee time which made it worth the price.
