Echelon Golf Club

Quite easily one of the best courses I’ve ever played. The greens were pure, fairways weren’t in pristine shape because of the recent weather and yet were still excellent, and the layout is incredible. Almost every hole had me saying “wowww” because of the elevation or the environment or green complex. Absolutely worth making the trip out there.

Even with it being January, the course was still in great shape. Even cut tee boxes, healthy fairways, and fantastic greens. Was especially impressed with the greens. Amazing condition, regardless of the time of year. Love that a round includes range balls too. If you're going to spend $80+ on a round, this is what you expect. I'll be back.

If you are serious about your game, this is the course for you. Echelon GC is semi private and occasionally you can catch a GolfNow deal, $75-$120. So we played today, May 9 and the course was already in summer form. The fairways, rough, and greens were absolutely amazing. I have been playing since Tiger won his first masters and pretty confident about my handicap and game. With that, this is was the hardest course I have played in GA. The only public course that is comparable is Heritage in Tucker, Ga. The Course Marshall (super friendly) even warned us and we played from the senior White Tees! No lost balls, no errant tee shots, just greens rolling on the pro level and strategic placed bunkers!!! Unfortunately he told us we played about 6400 yards because the whites were pushed near blues. We were also told the course was designed by Reese Jones, who favors draw and fade pro players. You can catch the Korn Ferry boys playing from the tips!!!! Every fairway bunker was placed at the 225-250 mark for the everyday amateur golfer. However, I still recommend this course because it’s an experience…. The club house was extremely welcoming from the food, beer, to the spirits. We had the burgers and they were “slamming!” I had the burger 🍔 topped with a few pieces of brisket!! Com’on mane- Insanely good! To finish we had 2 generous pours of Larceny wheat and EC Rye for $9 each… Let me stress, don’t play this course until you’re hitting the ball straight (or you can work the ball), your wedge is game tight, and you can truly read greens. Let me also stress, this is course is surrounded by old money; you have $$$$ houses on every hole. Just think Chateau Elan, St Marlo, or TPC Sugarloaf on steroids. So just play golf and not marvel at the three story houses 4 sides brick with pools. This course was worth the $114….
