If you are in your late 70’s and have COPD and Spinal Stenosis go play putt putt. The course challenges your body and your skills.

A “ must play”. If you’re in the area and you have a day open, play this course. It’s got everything you want in a course. As well as one of the coolest par 3’s I’ve played. But, just a heads up they do not have a driving range...

A great experience.

Enjoyed the course. Interesting layour, greens in good shape, all else well manicured. Only complaint was that 8 holes were "cart path only" and I am not sure why. Had a bad leg and that made things difficult for me.

Lots of hills

We played this course on a Tuesday and it wasn’t too crowded. Being from central Texas this course has some serious hills (some bordering on mountains and cliffs). Thoroughly enjoyed the challenge. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone. Only downside was the young lady working the snack bar said she wasn’t allowed to accept tips. Did a great job of waiting on us and we wanted to thank her with a tip.

Creme de la Creme

Golfed a lot of course in my life, none as enjoyable as this one. Coming from the flatlands of Indiana, we dont get layouts like this, as we dont have mountains. Just stunningly beautiful. Even the grasses are different. Even though while in March when we play, it is brown colored in the fairways, its still beautiful. Played it in September once and even more so when green. We actually didnt get to play this March because of the dang virus, but is a yearly thing every March, and this one is the top of the rotation. It is a lot of walking as every March its cart path only, but at 62 if I can do, anyone can. Its a must play.

Challenging course

I played today for the first time. It was a challenging course with plenty of elevation changes. I loved the course I will play it again next time in Gatlinburg. Hole number #12 pretty tough. 290 ft drop from tee the green.

Great course and staff!!

I came in to play as a single and was paired with 3 great golfers with a fun attitude. It was early in the morning and the course was in great shape. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The golf carts are high tech and seem new with a smooth ride. The views of the mountains and the course are beautiful. Fairways are soft and well taken care of as were the bunkers. I really enjoyed playing golf here and I highly recommend to my friends and anyone looking to relax with a great game of golf!

Mountain golf in the smokies

The greens were quick but fair. #12th hole is worth the price of admission every time just stunning golf hole. Back 9 is a little tighter and more of a thinking 9, while the front 9 you could really score on easy.
