Really enjoyed playing the course. Nice challenge
We only had time to play 9 holes, but really enjoyed the experience. The course was in great shape and the staff was very friendly. We are looking forward to playing all 18 next time.
Affordable, but won’t go back
Pace of play was really bad. I waited up to 10 min on every tee shot. No course etiquette from other groups there. Tee boxes were in rough shape. Fairways were alright. Greens were soft.
Confusing layout, and dangerous. I almost got hit twice waiting to tee off on hole 2. Directly behind the tee box is hole 8’s green (dogleg right). Balls were flying everywhere.
If you play here, just pay for 9. You won’t be able to get through 18 on the weekend in under 5 hr. Also, no alcohol sold or allowed at the course.
Which way do I go
The course layout was confusing. Front 9 and back 9 where intermixed. Markings were not available to determine which way to go. Otherwise the course was nice and well maintained.
Different
Course was in good shape and pace of play was great. Played in the early afternoon on a Monday. The layout was a little strange. A few holes have a blind tee shot including one with a road going across 3 fairways. Not sure who is liable if you hit a car.
Not family friendly
The staff there did not know how to ring up a tee time booked through golf now. It happened to me and the people in front of us. Neither of the groups ended up playing because it was a clown show.
They would not let my two young boys ride in the golf cart with me. Is unfortunate because we vacation here often and this golf course is nearby.
Me and my family will not play this golf course until policy and management changes.
Good Place to Practice
Short course and difficult first time out because of many blind shots. Greens are in great shape. Many fairways are adjacent to each other so you have to be careful of balls flying around. It gets a lot of play and many of the golfers are new and unaware of rules and etiquette of golf. Overall fun course. Pro shop could use more help in busy mornings when it can take forever to register.
Pleasantly Surprised
Me and my family were passing through to Cherokee and stumbled across this gem. Everyone was very friendly including the Marshall who stopped in to check on us a few times with helpful advice. Greens were in great condition. Had some quirky holes and blind shots that, especially for first time playing the course, made it challenging. Would definitely come back and play again.
