Golf in the Smokies

My husband and I really enjoyed playing this beautiful course. The staff was really nice as well. I've only played a handful of times, but my husband has been golfing for years and we both really liked this course. Will definitely be back for our next vacation there.

A Good Mountain Course

This was a fun mountain course with lots of huge hills and drops. Some tight fairways here and there. Probably not a great course to walk if easly winded or you struggle with hills.

Loved the course. Great layout and all holes were a bit different. Some places the grass was a little thin but in these Covid times I thought that was to be expected

Fun course

Fun course to play. Small and challenging greens make the approach game crucial. Very nice carts with gps. Course was wet and soggy in spots.

Nice course for a quick round

My wife and I were spending a week in Pigeon Forge. The course was easy to get on and reasonably priced. The fairways were lush and green thanks to lots of recent rains. The greens were in great shape but putted pretty true. With lots of elevation changes, it would be a tough course to walk. Lots of uneven lies, but that added to the charm of the course. All in all, a nice course for the money.

Overall nice

Nice course, but after spending $65 I don’t think there should be an additional charge for the gps system.

Fun course with amazing scenery

The course is beautiful and the holes are challenging and fun. I am a novice golfer, at best, and was able to play well and challenge myself from the white tees. The carts are nice. There is no driving range, but there is a chip/putt area and some warm up nets. The clubhouse is clean and accommodating. The staff is friendly. The conditions are very wet right now and they are doing maintenance on some areas to remedy this. But the layout and scenery make up for any bald spots. The price is reasonable. I'll be going back.
