Etiquette Not A Priority

Being a touristy town, expect the course to be no different. Pace of play was painstakingly slow. My wife rode along while I played solo and we finished 18 holes in just under 4 hours. People would hit onto us when we waited for groups to putt several times after missing. Good views, course had some issues. Would recommend to a friend because it’s one of the better courses in the area—as far as I understand

Great except for bugs

Enjoyed the round except for the massive amount of bugs encountered. Every hole inundated with gnats creating an unpleasant experience. Would think the course could spray for these to limit the exposure.

Hilly

Course was in good shape, considering rain from last two days. Course is very hilly, hard to get a flat lie. No driving range!

Great Course!

Very challenging and beautiful course. Gives you the opportunity to use many clubs in your bag. The course rangers could have done a better job keeping people moving. Play was relatively slow the whole round.

First time

This is a beautiful course, nice staff, challenging but fair, great experience. The only downside was the gnats, but its July in east Tennessee. Take bug spray.

Interesting layout

I course well worth playing. Several very interesting and beautiful holes. Scenery around course is amazing especially in the fall.

Hole #10 when the fall foliage is in full color is breathtaking.

Picturesque Course

The course was in excellent condition. Fairways were green and lush. Greens were consistent. The course is challenging with numerous elevation changes. I often found myself hitting a ball below my feet or at knee level. Great time, completely enjoyed my round of golf on this day.

Must play

This course is a must play. Absolutely awesome layout that forces different shot shapes and challenges players from all tees (out foursome had two from the whites, one from the gold's, and one from the reds). The tees need a lot of attention on roughly half of the course but the remainder of the course was in fantastic shape.

Just dont

Very disappointing, no driving range, no Marshall’s except for the starter. Course was in decent condition but greens were very slow. So many hills it is hard to determine where the fairway is. Bunkers were wet and hard.

Great Course, Awesome views

We played this course on vacation in Gaitlinburg. It was awesome. The morning mountain views can't be beat. Course was in great shape and they kept the golfers moving on the first tee. It was a busy day, but never felt pressured. The elevation changes bring some challenging fun to the game. Will play again!!

Gatlinburg Golf

The course was absolutely beautiful and in very good condition! The pace of play was good. Players and staff were all very friendly. The course rating is way low. The course was much tougher then my home course which is rated 10 points higher. It’s advertised as one of the most beautiful courses in America and I definitely concur!
