Good time

The check in staff was a little short probably tired of tourist. The girl in the kitchen was nice just short handed because of a callout. Kitchen didn’t have a great beer selection. Course was good though. Good condition. Pace of play was slow. Like real slow. For a Wednesday at lunchtime. Overall good experience.

Great choice - HIGHLY recommend

Played the back nine twice. They had a scramble on the front. Played 25 yrs ago and it is much nicer than then. Elevation changes are insane. In a good way. Views are amazing. #12 is one of the most unique and picturesque holes I’ve ever played. Carts were great, staff very friendly. Pace of play great in the afternoon. #17 is unfair but a beautiful hole. 220 par three uphill. Plays about 240. Impossible for a person who hits driver 210. Hit it well and yes I was about 30 yds short down a mountain. Only negative is cart path only on numerous holes appears to be year round. VERY difficult waking to and from and guessing distances.

This course is worth playing

Challenging golf course, though more than a bit narrow in many places. A few of the holes we considered a little gimmicky, but the course is worth your time. The greens rolled very well. Priced reasonably for the area.

Cart path only, half of the holes!

We love this course, it's in good shape, well-maintained.

When we arrived, we found that 9 holes were "cart path only". That's difficult to play when you're a senior golfer.

Wish there were a way to know course info on GolfNow when booking

Entertaining

Up down left right. Lots of variation yet several holes straight on. Many holes seem to be permanent cart path only which slowed down play. Hole 14's drop is awesome!

Just golf course offers some of the best views of the smoky mountains. The layout was fantastic with challenging holes especially on the back nine.
