Nelson Park Golf Course in Decatur
This short and hilly course has small greens that are very fast. The fairways are open, and there are several out-of-bounds stakes lining the holes. A few sand bunkers come into play, but no water hazards. Nine hole green fee rates are only available on weekends after 4 PM.
