My thoughts

The course is a very nice and challenging layout. They had recently punched the greens but they were still in dece!hape. Due to heavy rains some holes were cart path only, but for the most part the course was very good. Staff was extremely friendly and inviting. Highly recommend!

Always fun

It’s been several days without rain but the fairways

were very soggy! I’m surprised they did not enforce

cart path only. The greens were in great shape!

As always-a good experience playing CRCC!

Golf was good but hot dogs were not

We played twilight after 1pm and the course is really good shape except for the sprigging but that is required! We arrived early to eat lunch and our hot dogs were old and had soggy buns! Hot dogs at golf course need to be fresh and not look like something that’s been sitting under a heat lamp or from previous day! Golfers love their dogs, so make them fresh and give the golfers something to look forward to when making the turn!

Amazing mountain course

One of the best places to play golf in northern Alabama. Great lay out and the most friendly staff around. They are rapidly improving the fairways after last year's freeze. Love this place.

New Superintendent Already Making A Difference

Course seemed to be hit hard this summer, but have already seen major changes since the last time I played. Customer service was again an A+

Always a good time

Another great day at Cherokee ridge. Our only complaint was there was a group of 5 ahead of us and they were playing a little slow.

Good course, but needs time to heal

Cherokee Ridge is a good course but is in terrible shape right now. Large swaths of the fairways are unplayable. The greens range from dry and hard to wet and spongy. I do believe they’re doing all they can to remedy the issues, but for now it’s not a desirable course to play.

Scenic Golf!

I really enjoyed the views and the course is well maintained. Lots of slow groups that we passed and had to skip several holes just to be done before dark.

Cherokee Risge Aug 16 2024

I rode with club member which made navigating the course quite easy.

@nd hole was a par 4, but was very long ,seemed like a par 5. 2nd shot was uphill so distance was very important. Many hills & side hill lies.
