Very poor outing

Honestly that was the worst half round i've played.

We(my wife and I for our 16th anniversary) booked for three people, but the third had to cancel and then still got charged for a third.

We tried to play 18 holes(which we paid for), but had to wait 10-15 minutes every hole and it took us just over 3 hours to play the front 9 so we had to leave due to other time constraints.

Really unique course

My son and I played and had a great time. Staff very friendly. Course is very unique as there are several holes that are hilly and a couple of par 3s that are extremely elevated. Don’t even think about walking this course. Would highly recommend.

Always a treat

As always-Gunters Landing remains my favorite

course in North Alabama, and it’s on my top 10 list of courses that I’ve played worldwide! Steve and staff go out of their way to ensure you have a great outing! BTW: I tried their chicken salad sandwich and it’s the best I’ve ever had!!!!

Greens are terrible!!!

I have played here many times over the last several years. The greens are borderline unplayable. Some on the front are half dead.

Gorgeous course.

Beautiful golf course. Magnificent design. Very hilly. Almost mountainous in some sections. Extremely strategic design. Not a long hitters course. You must be thoughtful over every shot, particularly on the front side. Only drawback to the course is the extreme graininess of the greens. You must understand the direction of the grain, and guess at the affect upon your put, on each green. This is extremely frustrating, because if you get the grain wrong, you're missing the put every time - sometimes by many feet. To make this course a true first rate course, Bermuda greens should replace the brutal grainy greens that deny a golfer his best chance to score.

Slow play and questionable greens

Slow play due to the fivesome playing in front of the our group. Had to wait on every hole. Greens appear to have fungus (or have been sprayed with chemical). Bumpy and scraggly in places.

Positives were the course is very scenic and has some unique holes.

It was another good trip. It's about 90 minutes from the house but worth the drive.

Nice course, not a fan of the layout

I thought the course was in pretty good condition despite the sogginess from the rain the day before. The elevation changes are drastic, but get old after the first few times. Almost every hole is up or down 30+ feet or more it feels like. Most fairways seem to have a severe slope on the side or down/up hill, which leads to very few relatively even lies. The par 5s aren’t much fun, each one almost forcing 3 shots unless you’re a bomber. The greens were in good condition and were tricky to read, but felt fair and were fun to putt on. Not the kind of course I’d want to play daily, but it’s a good test of golf skill and I’d recommend folks try it as it might suit their eye better than it did mine.

Strong ball strikers course

Good ball striking is essential on this course. You must thoughtfully plan out your shot selection on many holes. Be good at math. Understand where to strike the ball on the fairway so you have something comfortable, something confident to hit and hold the green. Holes 4 and 8, in particular, are diabolical. It will take more than one time around this course to get comfortable.

Be aware of the grainy greens. Tough to read. Tough to measure weight of put on (distance control). The tough greens are probably the course's best defense.

If you can break 90 here, you're playing and scoring very well.
