Village Greens Golf & Country Club
About
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.

Still good
Greens are aerated but still rolled decent.
About 3 of the greens had new sod cuts away from the hole.
All of the par 5's except for 18 are basically par 4's. The entire course is extremely short (Barely over 6k yards from the back).
Only a few blind shots, mostly off the tee but it's a fun course to go back to and be aggressive.
Super easy overall, you have to miss pretty badly to get into trouble.
Beautiful condition
One of my favorite courses in the area. Grounds crew should be very proud of the work they’ve put in, it really shows on a Sunday morning. Only issue we had was staff-related. Called the clubhouse to place an order at the turn, we were told the kitchen guy didn’t come in yet. That happens, no big deal. We went directly from the 9th to the 10th since the grill was closed. Apparently the group in front of us took a long break at the turn. They ended up behind us and bottlenecked the course a bit. The Ranger was pretty rude for a beautiful Sunday morning. Exclaimed we needed to pick up the pace. We played 18 in 3 hours and 44 minutes. Just recommend the Rangers know what they’re talking about before they jump on paying customers. We will certainly be back and we will certainly recommend.
Good bang for your buck
Course was in good shape, there was still a good bit of sand on the greens but overall it was nice. Pace of play at times got slow with two groups waiting on a tee box but the staff was out trying to speed things along.
Great Course For Money
Me and my buddy played here for first time and had heard mixed reviews prior to playing. I was very surprised how nice the course actually was. We played 18 then decided to play another 18. The greens were in great shape and rolled well, the layout is challenging but enjoyable and employees weee friendly. There were a few tee boxes that needed tlc like #10 but overall course was great. Will be back to play soon.
Nice course and good value
I enjoyed this course. It’s not immaculate, but it is a course that is fun to play. It’s pretty forgiving, and the roughs are playable. Greens are a little inconsistent on speeds and the bunkers could use 3” more of sand, but overall for the price and pace you can’t beat it.
Love the course, so does everyone else
Village Greens is a fun course. It's one of my favorite places in the area. However, there is no starter/ranger M-W. So we played Friday. Tee Times were running behind by 2 spots by the time we went off. The front 9 played relatively reasonable, 2 hours. However, at the turn things changed. We were the 3rd group waiting on the 10th tee. It improved only slightly the entire back 9, watching the group in front tee off on every subsequent hole. We skipped 18 due to an appointment or the round would have ventured into 4 hours and 45 minutes. Brutal pace.
Pacing
Coarse had a big tournament that started early and was letting people who lmissed there tee times tee off hour later. Most of the time it’s pretty calm but that particular was just off. I’ll play it again just might be a while
Check in staff grumbled because we used GolfNow, had to show proof that our account had been debited. We asked about a starter and guy at check in said he was the starter and we were good to go. Went to 1st tee, waited on group there to clear, and then 2 of our group had hit, when another foursome drove up and asked if we were part of the tournament. We said no, and they informed us that they were and were the last group, and were angry with us because we had already started. We told them the starter told us we were good to go, and no one was there waiting after the group in front had already cleared so that we could tee off. We told them they could go ahead and go,but they would not. Thought we might have to fight our way out. Just an unfriendly experience.
Saint Patrick’s Day Party
Big St. Patrick’s day bash going on in the pub/grill. Couldn’t get anything to drink (many party goers at the snack shop/bar). Never saw any evidence of a hospitality cart ( this course may not have one). Should have brought my own, Will know better next round we play wherever it is.
There was no starter or player assistance ranger on the course which lead to the most disappointing aspect of this round. When we made the turn from 9 to 10 a group of six (all playing together) jumped in front of us. They were awful and rude, they most likely should have been at a driving range or Top Golf in Greenville. They hit two or more balls off every tee (each player did this). We finally called the pro shop and complained. Someone came out spoke to them and all that they did was to break them up into two groups of three. They played two holes like this and then joined back up as a group of six continuing to hit multiple balls, practice putting on the greens, not leaving the green when everyone had putted out. They should have been made to go to the first tee rather than jump in wherever they pleased. Very disappointed in the staff for not doing the right thing.
Excellent course layout
Fairways and greens in sad shape. Should be much better in a few weeks. Staff was great. A bit expensive for the conditions.
Great course
Course was in good condition for early February. Great food and good deals at the pro shop. Friendly staff.
