    Always in perfect condition. Routing leaves something to be desired but overall very playable and enjoyable. The whole experience is what makes it so good. Amazing food, drinks, locker rooms, etc

    What a great property Donald Ross did a great job with the land. Brian Silva did a great job with the bunker and green restoration. And the change from Bent to Bermuda made the course play firm and fast , even after a rain

    True old-school golf club with no frills, full of McKenzie trademarks, super charming, historic, and lowkey atmosphere. Not over-manicured around the edges, but conditions tee to green are excellent - they focus on the important stuff. Green complexes are brilliant and fun.

    Augusta National is a very challenging experience for me. Everywhere I turn is a reminder of a moment in golf history. It’s sensory overload and it’s very distracting. The greens are mesmerizing and I could spend hours on each one.

How we rank

This ranking uses each golfer’s scenery rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Scenery is the scenery score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs scenery 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. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Augusta, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
