Fun & Challenging Course

We've played this course quite a few times. The staff couldn't be nicer!! The holes are a mixture of easy to challenging. Holes 9 and 17 are quite challenging. Always a fun 18 holes.

Historical Layout

I've played and continue to play TUP because of its historical meaning to the neighborhood and to minority golfers as a whole. However, the course was in the worst condition I've seen in years. Possibly due to the recent rain and brutal cold days but in bad shape nonetheless. There needs to be a very intentional parking solution as well as ingress and egress solutions. Many of the bunkers are nothing more than rock beds and several tee boxes might as well be bad patches of grass in the backyard of an abandoned home.

Great Value

The course was much better than I expected for the price. Some of the rough was very high but manageable.
I really enjoyed playing there and look forward to returning.
The staff was extremely helpful and friendly.

Great track not kept up

This shouldn’t even be called a golf course. I’m sure many years ago it was awesome. Only thing awesome now is the staff. Each member of the staff we encountered was great. All but 2 tee boxes were nasty. No grass only dirt and rocks. Fairways were not mowed and looked more like rough. We lost several balls that were hit dead center in them. Most of the greens were pretty good. Carts should have been junked years ago. Actually they probably were and the city picked them up for not much money. Course layout is very interesting and challenging. Just not in good shape. Unfortunately I probably won’t go back.

Great course value, tee boxes need work.

The course was in fine shape aside from the tee boxes. Most of them were packed down dirt or sand. Greens and fairways were mostly fine. Great course, best bang for your buck in the Atlanta area.

NEVER AGAIN

This was the worst golf course I have ever been to by FAR! TERRIBLY maintained. The course does NOT look like the pictures AT ALL!! Golf carts were nearly broken, tee boxes were just dirt, rocks and no grass. Fairways were in horrible condition! NEVER AGAIN!! HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!

Faulty Brakes

Cart almost flipped come down hill during rain due to faulty breaks. I was thrown to pavement trying to keep the cart from flipping. I did not report the accident but, endorsed a lot of pain. When arriving at the next hole breaks again didn't stop completely with zero hills.
