Cumberland Trail

Played a twilight round on Sunday (7/30). The course was in decent shape (aside from some bunkers). Was a bit surprised in the speed of the greens though. I recall the greens here running rather fast ... they were not.

And the cart ran out of power mid-way through the 9th hole.

Beautiful course but greens are in rough shape

Would have been a 5 out of 5, however energy green was absolutely peppered with ball marks.

Very nice course

Course in nice shape. The pace of play was slow, waited on every hole, so it was a 5-hour round. Will play there again if the price is right.

Excellent Round

I recently had the opportunity of playing at Cumberland Trails and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience. From the moment I stepped onto the course until the final putt, everything about my round was simply perfect.

The course itself is a masterpiece. The meticulously manicured fairways, stunning water features, and strategically placed bunkers add to the visual appeal while also providing a fair and challenging layout. The landscaping was

exceptional, and it was clear that great care is taken to maintain and improve the golf course.

Perhaps what impressed me the most was the overall atmosphere and tranquility of the course. Despite being quite busy, the pace of play was well managed, allowing for an uninterrupted round and peaceful engagement with the game. Additionally, the well-placed seating areas and scenic views throughout the course provided a perfect opportunity for moments of relaxation and reflection.

Overall, my experience at Cumberland Trails was nothing short of fantastic. I would highly recommend it to golf enthusiasts of all skill levels. Whether you're a beginner wanting to improve your game or an experienced player seeking a challenging round, this course truly has something to offer everyone. I can't wait to return for another round at this exceptional golfing destination.

Love this place

Starters think they run the play, in a good/funny way. Course is amazing. Would love for them to finish the bunkers. Still need people to fix their ball marks on the green! This isn’t your local 30$ course even tho the price could be a little less. Do better with tee time and outings also

Challenging Course

I was very impressed and intimidated by the course! The course is very clean with outstanding fairways, and very long with the 4 and 5 pars! I sincerely enjoyed playing on this course for the first time! I can’t wait for o go back and play again! The carts were equipped with overhead cover to protect your clubs from the rain!!! The bar and grill was outstanding, clean and friendly staff!
