Excellent course
Tied my career low score here yesterday! Have fun on the back and be sure to read scorecard to double check aim point and distance. Amazing course
Fun for the money
Course was a lot of fun to play. Typical of what is to be expected from a mountain course, blind shots and elevation changes. Staff was great. Only hiccup was my cart dying between 2 and3. Course conditions were a little rough, dry fairways and shaggy greens on some holes. Didn't take away from the enjoyment of the round though. All in all, a great day.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back!
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and that our staff left a great impression on you. We appreciate your feedback on our conditions and we hope to have you back again soon!
A Tale of Two 9's
This course has a chance if the right commitment is made to improve the conditions especially to the front 9. The front 9 was rough, fairways and around the greens need considerable attention...most of it can be done with proper mowing....the greens in the front were fine...would rate them a 7. The back 9 was very good...fast and properly mowed fairways with solid greens that I would rate at a 9. Would definitely recommend the course. Hope Management is willing to spend the money to make this course a place to remember. Would also point out staff was polite and professional.
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and that our staff left a great impression on you. We appreciate your feedback and we hope to have you back again soon!
A fund day on the course
The course was fun, the back nine had a few blind shoots which would require playing the course more then once
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and the challenge it presented. We hope to have you back again soon for your next round!
Has a great back 9
Good layout. Front 9 is flat but the back 9 is very hilly with some interesting holes. The greens were in very good condition. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and the challenge of our layout. We're also glad that our staff left a great impression on you. We hope to have you back again soon for your next round!
OK
It rained earlier a.nd the course was pretty and it was cart path only, Lots of bugs.
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course despite the rain. We appreciate your review and we hope to have you back again soon!
Prior course knowledge essential
This is.a beautiful course in the mountains, surrounded by homes. The front nine stays in the valley while the back works up through the hills. There are some really fun and creative, not to mention spectacularly scenic holes, especially on that back 9, However, prior course knowledge would make a world of difference...at least pair with someone who has played. The scorecard provides some guidance, but still found myself in bad positions following what I thought was a perfect tee shot. Green rolled very well and held approach shots. Never saw any beverage service on the course, but maybe that’s a weekend perk. Overall, enjoyed the course.
Great! We're glad that you enjoyed our course and the challenge it presented. We appreciate your feedback and we look forward to having you back again soon!
Great course
First time playing at Bent Creek and it was a great experience. Course is very challenging and unique. Would recommend this course to anyone who is in the area with all the great views of the Smokey Mountains and the creek that runs throughout the course as well.
Fantastic! We're thrilled that you enjoyed your first time playing our course. We're glad that you enjoyed the challenge it presented as well as our views. We can't wait to have you back again soon for your next round at Bent Creek!
Decent little course
Course was nice. A little wet from some big rains.
Only played the front nine. I’d play again
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course despite the heavy rain we had. We hope to have you back again soon for your next round with us!
Winter conditions
Staff is excellent. The course was a little rough, but that is to be expected this time of year. It was playable, but very saturated. I guarantee this course is beautiful in late spring through the fall. Cool layout. Hope to get to play it again when weather conditions improve.
Thank you for your review! We're pleased that our staff left a great impression on you and we appreciate your feedback on our conditions. We hope to have you back again soon once the course is in top shape!
Most bang for the buck.!
This course is loaded with water hazards. Seems every hole has the possibility of the ball getting drowned by a mountain stream or man made pond.!! Looking for your ball generally will have you finding someone else’s ball.! Losing golf balls has no relevance when surrounded by the beauty of the Smoky Mts. The cart paths are in terrible shape on the front nine with standing water and muddy areas. But, Tn. has experienced an extremely wet fall and winter. Worth noting is all the cart path bridges have been replaced recently with all new bridges. Folks, this was expensive. Bridge replacement indicates the management is committed to this course's future AND the safety of its clientele. Please use caution on the very steep sections (2 or 3 places) of the cart paths. These sections are not for the drunks or kids to be driving the cart.! Lots of tough fairways, hard to place your shot with "blind" landings and hazards. Multiple rounds will help with that. Greens were in excellent shape. Fairways were acceptable considering the wet weather. Summary: go play.!
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and the challenge it presented. We're also glad that you've noticed all the improvements we've made. We appreciate your review and we look forward to having you back again soon for your next round with us!
First time
Course was really wet from 5 inches of rain the day before. Greens were good and Bermuda was dormant. Front nine holes were tough but fair with lots of trouble. The back nine had a lot of blind shots and was very tight. There was a lot of elevation changes and tricky greens.
Thanks for your review! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course but we apologize that the rain made the course a little damp. We're also glad that you enjoyed the challenge of our layout. We appreciate your review and we hope to have you back again soon!
Very beautiful course very fun to play recommend to play. Only thing I can say is bring plenty of bug spray other than that a must play
Gnats, Gnats, Gnats
The young lady who checked us in was very nice. That's where the pleasantness ends. Gnats, gnats, gnats and just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, more gnats. We couldn't enjoy our round. We will not be back.
needs some work
crabgrass on the greens.
large ruts in the fairways
great layout
Conditions were wet due to recent heavy rains
Tough putting due to wet conditions. Hole 9 green needs help. Unfortunately there are the tiny flying bugs. Had Fun! Great staff!
course in great shape
Course was in good shape considering the 5" of rain days before. Greens not cut due to weather and rolled slow but were in good shape. Overall, wonderful to play
Don’t waste your time
After a very busy month, my husband and I were looking forward to a relaxing g weekend of golf. We we’re both very disappointed in this course. The greens were in horrible condition, the course itself more resembles a putt putt layout than a golf course, and very poorly marked relating to distances. We wished we would have played at other courses in the area that we were familiar with. The only thing this course has going for it is the views of our beautiful Smokey Mountains. We were also charged $5 for a small bag of chips and a drink.
