Nice Property - Overplayed

Great property but way too much traffic.

Tees and greens are showing the wear and tear of constant golfers. On full tee sheets

Very challenging

One of my playing partners said this course was more challenging the when he played the Black course in New York!

Course was wet, so it played long and cart plath only.. Took 5 hours.

18 totally different holes

Great layout with a fair challenge. Each hole has its own signature and name. Looking forward to my next trip to play again.

Pigeon Forge get away

The course itself was in bad shape. Huge muddy areas (bad drainage), greens were bare in spots, tee boxes full of divots, rough was 6" deep in areas. For the cost, I found the course not worth the money. I would play again if it were in the $40 range. Shark experience golf carts were helpful for yardage but difficult to understand for adding scores. Pace of play was average, starting about every 10-15 minutes, but backed up when trying to find a ball 3 feet from the fairway. Overall, a good experience, but would not pay $65 again for this course.

Not a course I will ever visit again.

Poor layout, poor conditions, poor service. It’s a hard pass, there are other courses close by that put it to shame.

Not impressed

The course is overrated for the cost. It is not well maintained, greens were sporadic, fairways were not mowed. I expected a little better course for the price.

Beautiful But Tough

Loved the course. Beautiful vistas and layout. But, you better be in shape. We were on cart path only. No flat lies lots of walking up and down the hillsides. Even when this course is dry it would be a challenge. I would love to play it again.

Difficulty Extremely Challenging
