Rating 71.2

Village Greens Golf Club sprawls across over 100 acres of what used to be farmland situated between Inman and Gramling. Remnants of the old farm can be seen throughout the course, including pear trees from the original orchard that line the 10th fairway. When the golf course was built in 1969, many new trees were planted but much care was taken so as not to obstruct the view of the Blue Ridge Mountains, providing nearly every hole with views that stretch from Glassy Mountain to Chimney Rock. The layout has a classic design that is playable for a wide range of skill levels. Sparkling lakes and ponds accent the landscape, coming into play on a few holes. Village Greens Golf Club's most memorable water hole is the course's signature sixth. This short par 3 features a semi-island green that is surrounded by water on two sides, along with three bunkers and out-of-bounds on the right.

Nice

Enjoyed the course. Second time playing here. Played alone. Was let through by every group except for a 3-some on 16. However, they played well, and it didn't cause a major delay.

Course was in nice shape. Definitely will play here again.

Not A Great Course

Although the weather was nice, the course was not in great conditions. I only played this course because of the price using Golfnow. I am not a fan of this course but in golf, every golf course will not be up to par. Therefore, you learn to take the good with the bad.

Terrible Conditions

I played this course after it had rained that night. We went out early in the morning and the course was in terrible condition. Holes were damaged and I believe it's because they were from the previous day and had not been switched. I called the pro shop to ask if the greens had been aerated and they told me no. Which was a lie. They lifted there aerification alert on Wednesday after they punched them on Monday. This was told to me by the staff in the pro shop. I would not play this course again even though it's a pretty good value.

Need a new starter

A friend and I came this morning to play. We just got in our cart and went to the starter but he drove off. There was a line at hole 1 so we go to 10. Nobody on the hole, nobody behind us. We could have played the back 9 no problem. As we get to the tee box he rides by and fusses "who said ya'll could start here?" So we pull back to number 1. There is people still hitting but we get out of the cart and he fusses "ya'll need to hurry up!" So am I supposed to drive one right on top of someone? We spent $42 a piece to be fussed at before we even tee off on #1? Course looked great and dickeys tasted great. Such a shame to let it all ruin for the starter.

Fun course in great shape

I played there for the first time with my dad this past weekend and we had a great day. It's a very unique layout with plenty of challenging shots but not so tough to take the fun out of it. The course was in great shape, and the pace of play was perfect. It's not the longest course in the world but the layout with all the hills and bends made it feel longer. I enjoyed having to stratigize with my shot selection instead of just bombing a drive and wedging it in on every hole. Overall I was very pleased as it is a great value for the money and a unique course to play. Of course the BBQ is awesome and a must have. We will be back soon and often.

Rude Staff. Surrounded by mower and lawn equipment the entire front 9, it was never quiet. Then I was interupted in the middle of a shot by staff member on hole 10 about playing through even though the course was Extremly slow that day. A very frustrating round of golf. Will not be back.

Glad I played here.

First time here for me and my golf buddy, and we were glad we found this place. The course is great, the staff is very friendly and helpful and the grill has the largest most diverse menu of any golf course I've ever been to. They actually smoke BBQ on site. The greens are plush and moderately fast, the fairways are nice and the rough is not too high. We will certainly go back to play here again!

Rolling Hills & Great Greens

One of my favorite layouts in the SC foothills.

Lots of shots to be made.... uphill / down hill, fairways tilt left & right, and if that's not enough it will be real handy if you can move the ball both ways.

Greens (bermuda) always in good shape and plenty of movement. Bermuda fairways just starting to go dormant with the late fall.

Really nice track overall.

The only gripe I've ever had (and always will) is the 18th hole.

A par 5 with a double layup....Can't use a driver unless you're a short hitter (less than 220 off the tee) trees left, pond rt and a blocked path to the green from there, leaves 140 - 160 layup to the approach area.

It's tricked up due to the lack of length. Can be a very frustrating end to a great day on a very good course.

Would prefer they clear the trees blocking the 2nd shot to the green and play it as long 4 par, for a Par 71.

Awesome value!

good value

Course was in great shape from tee to green, greens were very slow. Pace of play wasn't good on the front 9. There was a threesome that was holding up the golf course, they drove their carts all over the golf course, even pulled up next to the greens. But, fortunately for us, they stopped to eat at the turn and we were able to get in front of them.
