Gatlinburg Golf Course

Front nine is wide open. Back nine has a lot more target golf and is a much tougher test.

this course was in terrible shape. And for what they charge you to play it should at least give you the opportunity to play all the holes. 3 of the greens were completely covered with leaves. The greens were in terrible shape. If you missed the fairway by even 5 yards you were losing your ball in the rough. Leaves everywhere. $80. And the course be in that shape??!! I’d spend the extra $20 and go to sevierville. At least you get to play the whole course. I’d never play that course again. And if anyone asks me I’d tell them not to play it.

The course is in great shape. The greens rolled good. The pace of play was okay The views on the course were awesome. Overall experience was really good. We travel to Gatlinburg every fall from Florida and I play this golf course I’ll play it again next year.

Everything was great up until 4 groups stacked on 10th tee box. Management saying carts in by 5:15p isn’t very good customer service. Maybe they should have been out there monitoring the pace of play. If you allow people to pay for 18 holes then they should be able to try and finish even if it takes until dark. Tourist playing this course want to have a good time and not feel rushed. Other than that, course is in great shape! Has come along way in the past 5-6 years. Always enjoy the track.

Interesting course with huge elevation changes. Greens keeper is not doing a good job. To many holes are cart path only ever when the course is very dry. The golf carts are a real pain. They are constantly beeping at you and the gps requires way to much attention. No rangers on the course and pace of play terrible.

Have played here many times and has always been great. This trip up I grabbed a 3:50 tee time for 18 holes. Was teeing off on 15 at 6:40 and received notice on my cart’s yardage screen that the cart had to be back at 7 to the club house. I understand the staff wanting to get out of there as early as possible, but at the very least the clubhouse personnel should inform you of that condition when checking in to tee off. I was dropped off at the course by my family and informed them I would be done close to 8. Needless to say being stuck waiting on a ride isn’t an ideal situation. Pace of play is 4.5 hours and if carts are due back at 7, the course shouldn’t book 18 hole tee times beyond 2:30. Just my opinion…

Clubhouse is spacious and looks like a private club. This is a City owned Public course with two distinctly different nines. Front nine is resort-like and much easier than the back nine which is tighter, more secluded and more scenic. Overall, the layout is fun and scenic with lots of elevation change. To be honest, for a $75 green fee, the greens were substandard at best and unplayable at worst. All greens were punched (aerated) about a month ago and were top dressed with white sand that left each aeration hole slightly below grade causing putted balls to hop and bounce like jumping beans. They have also been attacked by fungus and are crusty and bare around the edges and in many other areas. Pace of play was slow - our round took over five hours to finish. No sign of a marshall - anywhere. No sign of beverage carts - anywhere despite being told they had them. Bottom line: fun course, great views, challenging layout, so-so conditions.

Staff very friendly. Carts good! Not a nice bathroom, and none out on the course, only at the turn. It's a beautiful layout but unless you go regularly, you'll not know where the water, river, or trouble lies. The score card does not accurately show where to layup. But it's a gorgeous area, Mountain View's, a par 3 high on a hill.

Played this course for 35 years as a visitor. Unfortunately many greens are in poor shape due to stress and being wrongly fertilized. It was in worst shape I have ever seen. Course layout is great. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Discounted pricing should be the norm for the course in tough condition with the greens as they were.

Paid for a cart. Many holes were cart path only always not because of conditions.

Beautiful course but yoi better be a mountain goat or able to play on cartpath

While visiting Gatlinburg we headed over to Pigeon Forge for a day of golf. Super friendly and helpful staff. Nice putting and chipping greens but since there's no driving range, there are 3 nets set up to get a swing going. From the very first tee box, the views are spectacular and the fairway challenging with hills and uneven stance. If you stay in the fairway, you'll be rewarded! The carts are electric and ride smoothly. Some of the greens have some problem areas, maybe due to excessive rains this year, but balls were still rolling fine.

Fun course with lots of unusual holes, especially for a guy from Florida. Lots of ups and downs plus beautiful scenery.

Even with a little rain had a great time with my family today.

Great layout and much different from Florida courses I play at home. Course is short but challenging (especially the back nine).

The par 3 12th hole is worth the trip, but this course also has other challenging holes where tee shot placement is critical.

A special shout out to the course staff. They were accommodating, super friendly, and made it very easy for me (4 hdcp), my wife (non-golfer), and my two sons (infrequent golfers) to enjoy this beautiful course.

Good value as well with $50 pp Hotdeal.

We ll be back next time we re in the Gatlinburg area.

I was looking for a course to fill in my week and trying not to spend a fortune. I came across Gatlinburg C.C and was very happy with the results.
