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.

Great Course

In town for a wedding and wanted to play a quick round. Course is beautiful with only a few rough spots. #12 is an amazing par 3. All of the staff I came in contact with were very friendly. Highly recommend and will play this course again when we return to the area.

Beautiful course front and back nine give you two different challenges. Wide open fairways on the front and then challenging narrow and hilly fairways on the back nine.

Solid course! Greens were pure. Fairways and Tee Boxes need love.

Solid course! Layout is great, bugs were a huge issue. Gnats flying everywhere around your face trying to tee off or putt on every hole. Greens were pristine. Tee boxes and Fairways need some love, overall solid course. 75 bucks for a mid morning Tuesday tee time seemed pretty steep. No driving range to warm up.

If you are looking for picturesque views (12th hole) then this is the course for you. Golf carts are top tier.

Thanks for your review!

Our staff routinely reviews the best practices for gnats as they are common for the area. Unfortunately at this time the best thing we have found is to offer gnat specific bug spray in the golf shop. Our region has had a tough spring when it comes to Bermuda grass(Tees and Fairways). Below is a link to a article explaining the wide spread winter kill in the region. Our staff laid new sod on all tee box areas that had been damaged last week. We hope to see you back in the future!

Nice course

Beautiful course. Greens have filled in nice after being aerated about 4 weeks ago. Must see views on the back 9. I will be back, and would recommend it to anyone.
