Echelon Golf Course

Simply a beautiful track. Not necessarily for a beginner still shooting 102 – 108 but it was nice being on a well taken care of course. It was very challenging and physically demanding particularly the back nine. Plays long and requires both power and touch as well as strategy for the uphill series on the back nine.
No clubhouse and I never saw a beer cart.
Once I can consistently play under 90 I will return to conquer this beast.

Great condition, great greens.
The front side is a great 9 hole golf course I would like to play twice.
The back side is built on a piece of land wholly unsuited for golf. It has massive elevation changes on nearly every hole, and its not handled very well. Many holes are straight up steep slopes, so much so that you can hit the middle of the fairway and have a steep uphill stance on the next shot. One hole in particular is a 600 yard par five, requiring a strong second shot to get within short iron or wedge distance. The problem is that it is extremely difficult to hit a long solid shot of a strong uphill lie.
Its all very strange, given than it is in a high end housing community in the middle of nowhere. It wants to be a private club, which will never happen because it is the type of golf course that you want to play once a year at most, not every day. It also won’t happen because the kind of people who want to live in the middle of nowhere are mostly retirees, and retirees don’t want to play a golf course this difficult.
Not Rees Jones best effort.

Great condition. Fairways, tees, traps, and greens all in great condition. Best greens in Atlanta area. Well designed course and very challenging. One of the best in the area.
Update: Greens have suffered a bit this summer but are making a nice comeback. This is always a challenging course making it fun to play.

Nice homes and a great golf course the only downside is that there isn’t a clubhouse right now.

Very well conditioned course, the 1^st 9 holes are very scenic and well laid out. The back 9 is a completely different course and feel. Way too many elevation changes, and you can be in the middle of the fairway but have a major lie problem with all the slopes and elevation. Wasnt too fun.
Range is decent, there is no clubhouse, just a trailer in a million dollar subdivison that got hit by the real estate crash.
Overall the course is nice, but the front 9 is great. and the back 9 is below average but worth playing overall
