Greens need work

The course is in great shape except the greens. The greens are in very poor condition. We played a two putt rule they were so bad.

Crocket Ridge

I wouldn’t want to pay the $50-$60 green fees due to the actual greens are in bad shape. Tee boxes and fairways were good. Staff was very friendly and the carts come with gps. Pace was extremely slow, it took over 2 hours to play each 9. I wasn’t at work so it was a good round.

Fun but not worth it

I have played Crockett Ridge numerous times. It's always a fun course and can be challenging at times. The course and amenities are among the best in the area but the course is just not worth $65.

Greens or sand bunkers?

$55 dollars for that?! They clearly showed they do not care about the customers at all. The pro shop said the greens are not as “ pristine” as usual. They were not playable at all. One and done for my group.

Hidden Gem in East TN

Spectacular course. Well laid out. Challenging but not impossible. Extremely scenic holes. Would have given 5 stars accept the greens were in bad shape. The pro told us they cut them too low and scalped them. They were over-seeding and trying to get the growth back but some holes were really bad. However, still easily worth the money.

Greens

Greens are in the worst shape that I've seen. Very little grass on all of them. Just sand and soil. I understand that someone mowed them much to short and caused this. Course is usually in great shape.

Mountain course in need of help

Course was filled. With terrible golfers that crossed their balls into neighboring fairways without warning. My daughter was almost hit. The greens were in such bad shape that making putts was a joke. The fairways were decent and the employees were nice, but I could never recommend at $55/person. The course should be $25-30/person including a cart tops. Shame because it could be a lot better.

Greens were diseased and in rough shape

Course was in great shape other than the greens. They were diseased and in very rough shape. Was not aware of this before booking. And apparently my 49$ green/cart fee was discounted because of the those rough greens. Will not play there again with the greens like that. And the course isn't worth more than 50$ even in perfect condition.

Crockett Ridge Green condition

The course or fairways and rough were really well maintained but the greens are in serious trouble right now. Multiple greens with large dead spots and mowed length being left high and slow, I’m sure to try to allow them to recover.
