Bobby Jones Golf Course
Bobby Jones Golf Course stands out as one of Atlanta’s premier public golf venues, featuring a reversible nine-hole layout that creates two distinct 18-hole experiences. With impeccable greens, extensive practice facilities, and modern amenities, it delivers a quality golfing experience accessible to players of all levels.
Course Overview
Located just inside Atlanta’s city perimeter, Bobby Jones Golf Course offers a unique nine-hole layout that redefines public golf on a metropolitan scale. The course is designed to be reversible, meaning players can experience two distinct 18-hole rounds by switching tee positions daily. This versatility provides fresh challenges with every visit as each hole plays differently depending on direction, demanding thoughtful shot placement and strategic adaptation. The landscape is open and accessible, with well-maintained greens that hold putts true and fairways cut to an even height, eliminating classic rough but encouraging accuracy and creativity around the greens.
This municipal facility strikes a remarkable balance between playability for all golfers and enough variety to engage more experienced players. The absence of heavy rough provides golfers of varying skill levels more chances to recover from errant shots, while green complexes and bunker placements ensure that course management remains an important factor. The well-groomed, contemporary turf conditions make it an inviting place for both practice and casual rounds alike.
Bobby Jones goes beyond the course itself with practice amenities respected throughout the region. Two practice putting greens, a full driving range, a short game area with bunker, and a par-3 course impart every tool a golfer needs to refine skills in one focused location. The first-class golf carts are outfitted with GPS, Bluetooth, and even TV, enhancing comfort and convenience during each round. Walking is encouraged, with paved paths and a generally flat terrain making the experience accessible and welcoming.
Situated at 2205 Northside Dr NW, the course integrates effortlessly into its urban environment yet manages to offer a quiet retreat that prioritizes quality and community. Friendly staff, including an attentive starter team, help foster an inviting atmosphere that keeps players returning. Whether seeking to improve, compete, or simply enjoy a well-presented round in the heart of Atlanta, Bobby Jones Golf Course offers a rare mix of tradition, innovation, and accessibility unlike many other public facilities in the city.

Great time on the course today. Played 9-holes in 2 hours and then some fun on the putting course. Definitely recommend heading here.

This is an outstanding new Bobby Jones "Club". This is essentially a country club open to all Americans. This is a best practice model for all golf clubs. And William the starter is simply AMAZING!
Brad Jones
This is simply the best public golf facility inside the perimeter and probably outside the perimeter for practicing. the reversable 9 hole layout is challenging and fun in both directions. Its a bit wild out there and it seems like people are all over the course, but you figure out after one loop. I'd say these are the best public greens ITP. theres really no rough, everything is one length giving you a pretty good lie on most shots. The golf carts are first class with bluetooth, GPS, and TV. Easy walking course as well and walking is encouraged. clean parking garage that makes everything easy. The putting course is fun and a unique feature no other public place has in atlanta that I have found. The practice chipping area is excellent. The pro shop is nice and friendly. the restaurant looks good but i have not tried it yet. overall i'd say that Atlanta has a VERY poor public golf scene and this shines above the rest.

I play this course regularly. It’s always well maintained and everyone is so helpful and nice. The way they designed a reversible 9 hole course is amazing, it really feels like 18 different holes. Beautiful course in the heart of the city. Would highly recommend!

Best public course inside the perimeter of Atlanta. Greens a always in top condition! It is a very open course making it very playable. The course is 9 holes. They rotate the tees so that every other day you play a different layout of the course (you can read all about this on their website) The practice facilities are a golfers dream. There is a driving range, 2 putting greens, par3 course and a short game area complete with a bunker. Bobby Jones has everything needed to practice your game.
