Cherokee Ridge Country Club

Cherokee Ridge is one of my favorite tracks in North Alabama and I gladly drive an hour to play it.

The layout is challenging but fair and the course is a scenic delight. Take time to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

North Alabama experienced one of the wettest winters that we've had for years. Subsequently, it appears that it harshly affected this course. All of the bunkers had been washed out, had puddles of water (It hadn't rained here for three days), and had either very little sand or was just exposed clay. One of the tee-boxes (we played from the whites) had runoff from the hill above and therefore had no grass. Neither the GolfNow app nor the person in the Proshop mentioned that the greens had recently been aerated. Thankfully the greens were heavily sanded and rolled, so the putts rolled fast and were fairly predictably. My adult sons and I chose this course because it was only about 25 mins away from one of the boy's house. One of them played it last year and at the time was one of the best courses he had ever played. He remarked more than once about the contrast between this experience and his last time. Also, this is only March so the Bermuda fairways are still dormant. As we were leaving, the son for whom it was his first time there said he "enjoyed the course and looked forward to coming back later in the year." That pretty sums up our experience.

First of all the staff was spectacular and treated us special. They went out of the way to make our round memorable. The course layout is challenging with a nice variety of difficulty. Our foursome had a beer at the turn at the clubhouse. When we finished they asked if we enjoyed the round, helped us unload the carts and asked us to come back anytime.

Course was very wet after a very long, wet winter.

The course was playable , cart path only. Tough even walking in some areas. Sand traps were not playable. Greens were in good condition. Really nice layout. Lots of elevation changes. Remote from Huntsville, but worth the drive.

This is one of my favorite courses in the area, as you can see from my previous reviews. However, under the current conditions, the course is almost unplayable!

I “played” seven holes and walked off frustrated!

I generally play this course and always give it a great review. However, today was less than optimal. Wet, soggy and leaves were not blown away. Some greens were not well maintained. Overall poor condition!

I really liked the layout of this golf course. It has a world of potential. However, the greens were just not good at all. I know they are going to get some new greens soon, at least that is what they said, but once this course gets their green situation fixed, this course will be a great value for everyone

Greens are in HORRIBLE shape. Course is going to redo the greens in the near future. Sand traps are in bad condition. Everything else was okay. I can NOT recommend this course until the greens are renovated. I was very disappointed. I believe that the course will have to be closed for awhile to fix the greens. I got a pretty good deal on Golfnow, but it was still not worth the drive.

Great round of golf for the money. Beautiful scenery and nice layout. Look forward to playing it again.

Loved the course, it was in great condition would recommend playing this course if you want a good challenge.

Course was very nice and challenging. Staff was awesome and very helpful!
