DOUBLE OAKS

One of my favorite courses in NE Georgia. Played here on 7/13. The price is really good!
 On Mondays, they have a great special going right now.
Some of the greens (mostly front nine)
have been recently verti-cut, it appears, to make them even better.
Even though they are a little rough in spots, they played pretty good.
The fairways/tee boxes are in good shape.
The staff here does a great job of making this a good golf experience!
I never saw the cart girl during my rounds. Of course, that could be because it was Monday.
Don't know. Anyway, always a fun course to play.

Played on 7/11. Course is in pretty good conditions.
A few of the greens definitely needs to be worked on but otherwise is rolling true.
It's a good drive (coming from Atlanta) but is a fun course.
Probably not very fun for the more experienced players since there's not many bunkers and/or hazards to get you into trouble.
High handicappers will enjoy this a little more,
although it does play a little longer than most courses.
I would play this more if it wasn't for the long drive.
BTW, saw cart girl over at least 6 times during the round. Helps if you're drinking on the course.

Wife and I played mid morning 7-7-09.
Were paired with two very nice gentlemen and had a great round.
Course is very interesting and in very good shape.
Would recommended the drive from Atlanta to play this course.

I played on Wednesday morning, so not too terribly busy. Course was in great shape overall for this time of year.
Fairways and tee boxes were in great shape! Greens were a little burnt out and rough.
Only problem I had was the foursome we got behind on hole 10.
There was two of us and two of the guys in their group couldn't hardly walk, let alone play golf.
 Never let us play through, had the balls while we were waiting on the 18th tee,
 to come back to the tee from the fairway and hit another tee shot after sitting in the fairway forever!
This really rude play made my experience awful.

Played on 6/30... Double Oaks is the best value around!
We teed off in the early morning.
I think Double Oaks is an great course. It has an unusual layout, including back-to-back par 3s, followed by a par 5 on the front nine.
That being said, the layout of the holes are good with only a few blind shots.
Having a knowledge of the course does have its advantages.
The greens were in great shape, there were only a couple of greens that were bumpy or spotty.
As mentioned in a previous review, there are several cart paths that lead to nowhere and should be removed.
 Hole #5 has a different tee box location than it used to, but hasn't been properly marked.
It has a fully stocked pro shop with an excellent lunch deal (2 hot dogs, chips & drink for $3.75)!
 This course will soon be GPS-equipped for accurate distance and hole layout!
This is an excellent course for the value! You won't be disappointed!

Played June 18th for the first time in a couple of years. The staff was very friendly and helpful as indicated in previous reviews.
Started before a group outing and played in 4 hours.
The greens were in good shape as well as the fairways. No cart girl on a hot day was one drawback.
 Course layout was good but wish they would finish the cart path on 18.
I got my $'s worth and will play again this summer.

Played here today with a buddy of mine and we found the course to be in great shape.
 The fairways were true and the greens were holding and rolling very true.
The bunkers were raked, although some were damp for last nights rain, none had standing water and by the time we made it to the back 9,
 they had dried out and were looking just fine.
The staff was absolutely awesome.
We say the cart girl 4 times before we made the turn, and 3 more time on the back 9, this on a Friday when the course was fairly busy.
A few of the Tee boxes were a little thin, but not to the point it was a problem.
This is one of the best overall courses I have played this year, and the service was TOP NOTCH!!!
I love the back to back par 3’s at holes 5 and 6.
This is definitely a deal, and we will most certainly be back to play this great course.

I brought a group of teachers to Double Oaks on Friday May 29th and we had a terrific experience.
The course was in the best shape that I have seen it in a long time and the greens were flawless.
Seth in the pro shop does a great job with customer service. We will come back as a group.
