    The course needs time to grow in. The layout is very goofy . But the views are incredible.

    I battle with this one a lot. This course could be really good but I don’t think the environment which the course was built is intended to sustain a golf course. Fairways/green were patchy. Restaurant was great though. Can’t recommend the turkey sandwich enough.

    Lookout is a scruffy mountainside Raynor that with a little more time post their renovation by Kyle Franz and Tyler Rae, is going to be on everyone’s bucket list that doesn’t already have it. You get massive green complexes and the ability to feed balls into pins off huge slopes.

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. State pages include courses across Georgia. Rankings refresh about hourly.
