Atlanta Golf Courses For Everyone

Because of the ideal weather, Atlanta golf courses for players at all skill levels are plentiful. Whether its Atlanta public golf courses for occasional games that interest you or one of the many exclusive private Atlanta golf courses and resorts, chances are good that you will find more than one facility that matches your interest and skill level.

Read on to learn more about Atlanta tee times and Atlanta golf courses.

First Things First

Keep in mind that certain Atlanta tee times (that is, the time a game of golf is scheduled to begin) are more popular – and therefore more expensive and difficult to book – than others. This means that if your want to play on Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon, you’ll have to plan ahead – and be prepared to pay higher greens fees at golf courses in Atlanta. Of course, all golf courses in Atlanta are different in this regard, but generally, weekday mornings are generally the least expensive times to play. This also may be less of an issue at private golf courses in Atlanta than at Atlanta public golf facilities.

What Kind of Golf Course?

Atlanta golfers have a choice between municipal courses and private country clubs. Atlanta public golf courses are very inexpensive and in some cases even free to play at. They may also have practice facilities where you can spend time developing and improving your swing or putting skills.

Private country clubs on the other hand usually have other facilities. At a private golf course, Atlanta golfers may also have access to club facilities for private parties and receptions, a full service restaurant, a pro shop onsite as well as tennis, swimming, locker and shower facilities and more.

Of course, private Atlanta golf courses can be quite exclusive; prospective members must usually pass review and be sponsored by a current member, and the initiation fees and annual dues can be expensive. If you enjoy a better-than-average income, some leisure time and plan to hit the fairway every chance you get however, the private country club option may be an ideal one for you.

Don’t discount public Atlanta golf courses, however. These are well-maintained facilities, and while they may not have all the amenities of a country club, they can still provide a challenging and enjoyable gaming experience for the golfer who plays periodically. Likewise, if you are a visitor to the Atlanta area, public courses will give you a low-cost way to keep up with your game without having to pay for a temporary club membership.

 A Phoenix Rises at Forrest Glen


A Phoenix Rises at Forrest Glen


$9.99


Bankruptcy of Wade Elliot’s home building company was traumatic for him but a blessing in disguise. His Atlanta attorney introduced Wade to Molly Forrest, a socialite divorcee, who owned Forrest Glen, a large home place in Winston-Salem that abutted the palatial home of R. J. Reynolds, founder of Reynolds Tobacco Company. It was part of Molly’s recent divorce settlement, and she needed a competent builder to evaluate its potential as her permanent residence. Now without a source of income, Wade consented and traveled with Molly to inspect the home, built in 1921, believing the job would only require three days. Upon arrival, a bizarre twist of events ensued, including an assassination attempt on Molly. Equally strange was the unique relationship that developed between them. Wade fell in love with Forrest Glen, and also became Molly’s protector, mentor, inspiration and much more as their fates evolved during the next two years. Author Biography: Golf, fishing, traveling and tinkering were welcomed changes to Garland Ladd upon retiring, but fell short of satisfying creative urges. His career as a Professional Engineer offered many opportunities for creative expression; designing, building and guiding projects to completion had creative aspects, as did directing the engineering efforts of a large corporation. After a tentative stab at writing about his early life, a plot quickly evolved and Ladd was totally hooked on writing fiction. Now a passion, he has written ten suspense novels during the past six years. Seemingly never without a plot, he continues with other interests and his writing usually occurs before the rooster crows – - between three and eight AM – - and then it’soff to the golf course. Born in Danville, VA, veteran of WW II, BS degree in Mechanical Engineering from Virginia Tech in ’51. Ladd and his wife, the former Sara Watson, have three children and two grandchildren.
