Golf In The Smokies

Back nine has spectacular views. This isn't a course where you should worry about your score or taking an extra shot here and there. Just enjoy the scenery and relax as long as you're not holding up traffic. Rental clubs are overpriced but greens fees are reasonable given the location and condition of the course. Couldn't quite finish the round due to a silly coronavirus rule that forced us to stop at 7:30 p.m. but that rule came from somewhere besides the course. They were nice about it and apologetic.

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.
