Alfred Tup Holmes Golf Course

About Alfred Tup Holmes Golf Course

This municipal track in southwest Atlanta deserves more attention than it gets from the city's golf community. The routing makes clever use of rolling terrain and mature hardwoods, creating a surprisingly engaging test that punches above its weight class for a no-frills public course. What sets it apart is the variety. You'll face everything from tight, tree-lined corridors that demand precision to more open holes where you can let the driver eat, all while navigating elevation changes that add strategic interest to club selection. The conditioning won't wow you like the premium courses north of town, but it's honest golf at an honest price, and the staff keeps it very playable year-round. Walking is encouraged here, which is increasingly rare in Atlanta, and the pace of play tends to be more civilized than some of the city's busier municipal options. If you're looking for a solid round without the pretense or the premium green fees, this is one of those local gems that rewards golfers who appreciate good routing over pristine conditions.
