    The Fields is a hidden gem an hour south of Atlanta. Family owned and operated with lots of charm and a great layout. On a unique piece of land that’s hard to find in Atlanta area. If they put some money into it, it could be truly excellent.

    Good deal for students, gets a ton of play so conditions are generally less than optimal. Solid straightforward layout.

    Absolutely beautiful area with some big, wide holes on the front nine surrounded by beautiful homes on the hillsides. The back nine is a totally different course with some MASSIVE elevation changes hitting way down or up the side of a mountain.

How we rank

This ranking uses each golfer’s value rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Value is how worth the price a golfer felt the round was. Only public and guest-friendly courses are ranked, since private clubs rarely have value ratings. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs value ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. State pages include courses across Georgia. Rankings refresh about hourly.
