Gatlinburg GC in Pigon Forge Tenn.

will go back. Could not down load the course gude app. Went blind. Don't suggest doing this. Makes the course very hard but if you have the app or another device that will give a few additional tips besides GREEN front/center/back yardage. You'll be happier. Nice shape. Great looking holes from the tee. Just need local help or good GPS info. Try it you'll like it and understand what I meant above.

Father Son outing

Enjoyed the course. Great condition with a few rough spots on the greens. Only real complaint was pace of play. Round took almost five hours to finish round due to slow foursome holding two twosomes up from the first hole on. Golf cart also had battery issue. Upon notifying pro shop we were told it should be ok. Spent the last three holes with one of us walking in order for cart to climb up hill grades

Very dismally slow playing

Ok to start my wife was along to ride and I was charged $10 for that which this is the only course in the 7 states I've played this year that has charged for her to ride in cart with me. Food was outrageously high priced in club house. Bathrooms were clean. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Practice greens were nice. No range just some cage nets. Course was in ok condition greens were good except ball marks everywhere. Fairways were good I suspect because most who play there don't hit them. Bunkers were great. Setup was ok from hole to hole just not much room between holes that run beside each other. The worst part of this course was the pace of play, it was absolutely ridiculous. You might as well plan on 5 hours for 18 maybe longer. This is a course where you will find people who dont ever or have never played golf on every hole. Now I encourage new golfers but for a course with this much elevation changes this is no course for a beginner. Oh and absolutely no ranger on course so people hitting 2,3,4 balls is the norm here. Oh and you will see people who have more beer then clubs here as well. I liked the course although I have been to way more scenic and better conditioned courses who actually charge less. Either way I would love to play it again maybe when it isn't so busy. It is what it is..... for vacationers

Nice vacation gold

The course is next to Dollywood. Great alternative if you a golfer and not a park person. Several very nice holes that requires you to make the correct club selection.

Golfing in the mountains

I love playing this golf course and I will play here again. The fairways and greens are in excellent condition. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I must say that the 10th hole was my favorite.

Grouchy Staff

I had at least 15 choices in area to play golf, I chose Gatlinburg course because it was beautiful to look at as I passed by driving several times. So I booked, when I got to the club house, I was treated as if I wasn't really wanted. Then when I went to get my cart, again, no aporeciat I on of any kind. Good people playing golf on course, hillbilly's running it. Play River Islands instead, appreciative people.

If you are looking for something different, this is the place. Hilly is the understatement You don't have to use the word. "Fore" much because you don't know what's over the hill

Regardless it was very interest and enjoyable.

Good condition

Resort course worth playing

Not a very long course especially with all the elevation changes. I played the back tees and found it to be pretty short I hit my driver 280-300 and my 7 iron 175-185 so this was too short for me but I still enjoyed hitting different shots off the tee. The course conditions were very nice and the greens rolled true. If you get the itch to play this is a good choice for the area and really fun to play in the hills.

Great mountain views. Golfer friendly course hit the ball fairly straight and you will score well. Hole number 12 is one of the most memorable holes you will ever play.
