St Marlo Country Club

Played St Marlo “Country Club” yesterday and they had the audacity to charge $90 for this. No mention of greens in bad condition, no warning at all. Horrible condition right now. Avoid at all costs. Second picture was one of the better greens of the day. Strip the Country Club title, fire the greenskeeper, fix this course.

Charging $85 for unplayable greens. This was a discounted rate but I only noticed when I checked my receipt. Nothing about the greens' conditions were mentioned when I booked the tee time over the phone nor when I checked in. In fact, I made a point to ask about the greens when i booked on the phone and was told they were fine. Every hole was like this besides 2. I wouldn't play here again any time soon at that rate

I recently played St. Marlo Country Club and was deeply disappointed!!! This course was once a spectacular venue for amateurs seeking a refined golfing experience, but it now represents the epitome of "riches to rags." Unfortunately, I paid over $100 for a track with conditions that are far inferior to most municipal courses. The first red flag was the lack of players on a historically high-demand day. After reaching the first few greens and witnessing a course in despair, confirmed that the lack of a crowd of golfers and club members was not because it was my lucky day but due to a significant decline in course quality. The attached photos visually reflects the appearance of the majority of the putting greens (some were playable shape). Given the recent modest temperatures and heavy rain in the metropolitan Atlanta area, these conditions point directly to poor course management or a complete lack thereof. Even if an environmental issue like a vegetative infection is to blame, charging premium rates for a municipal-level experience is an insult to most golfers. I would say the clubhouse culinary experience was fair and the on-course restrooms were well appointed, but I would ventur

Very good experience overall - excellent people/service and the beautiful golf course is in decent shape for sure. We played in a Thursday afternoon and it definitely has all the “things” you’d expect at a higher end golf course. I was greeted at the bag drop, the folks in the pro shop were super nice, starter was funny, our cart girl was excellent and youngsters greeted us at the end of the round to make sure we were good and attend to our clubs as needed. The only thing absent was a ranger. The course itself is beautifully laid out and very tough. It winds through the subdivision so lots of pretty scenery and cool houses to look at during your round. I noted some issues on the tee boxes, greens and bunkers but nothing I wouldn’t expect at the end of the playing season. Overall the greens were superb - rolled true and in excellent shape. I took lots of pictures so you could see for yourself. My only two negatives were pitch marks on the greens not being fixed and the group behind us hit into us 3 times. I would have liked to have had a ranger address the group behind us, but after I yelled at them they stopped.

I have played golf and visited my friends/clients here many times, but my recent experience has completely changed my view. After receiving what I believe to be a false ticket from the front gate staff, I decided to challenge it. That ticket was absolutely unjustified, and I intend to fight this. I went to the HOA office in good faith. Upon arrival, the staff member kept me waiting outside the office for over ten minutes while she chatted on the phone about matters completely unrelated to HOA business. When I finally got assistance, they did explain the appeals process—but here’s the catch: I was told I had to appeal directly to the same person who issued the false ticket. Unsurprisingly, my appeal was denied. When I asked again, they suggested I speak at a board meeting, assuring me it would only take about five minutes. I attended, but the meeting was delayed, and a line of people including people from a charity group for children, with similar complaints was already waiting. After wasting over an hour, I was denied again—no surprise, since the same gate staff member was present and clearly aligned with the board. Many of my friends who live in St. Marlo’s have told me that n
