Great place for golf

A great East TN golf course, layout is challenging. I play here about 6 times a year.Today it was cart path only, and that does slow down pace of play, but we were worn out after about 15 holes.

beautiful course

Play was a little slow, but expected it as it was a weekend. played earlier in week as pace was under 4 hours. Found the course to be challenging with the hilly terrain. Enjoyed playing the course and the great views.

Course has some surprises

Being set in the mountains, many of the holes are sloped side to side and some second shots are blind. Fun Course. The area had suffered some heavy rains recently as evidenced by some dead fairways and still soggy ones, but the greens were impeccable and putts rolled well. Given the opportunity, this course is well worth it.

Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge

The course was in fantastic condition for very early in the golf season. The fairways were brown but the greens were really green. Great layout and a wonderful alternative to Dollyworld. The only thing I did not like was that the tees were covered, something I could live with. I will play this course when spring has sprung.

Love the course

It could have been a little cheaper due to winter time conditions/dormant fairways. Out of several beer types. I'll be back tho

Very Underrated Course

I came across this course last year and was traveling through. Its mid-February but the course, bunkers and greens were in excellent shape. Area had 80-100mph winds (plus wild fires) but you couldn't see a single sign on the course. The grounds crew were working diligently as I played through. Staff was really friendly and the locker room was impressive for a public. The course itself is a fun track and can be really challenging (especially on approach shots). I was impressed with the layout and use of land. I highly recommend it and will be back soon.

Landscape

Beautiful landscape. Back 9 a challenge. Rain occurred prior to our play day. Doesn't drain well. Muddy everywhere. Cart path only is never any fun. Tee boxes and greens in great shape. Fairway grass in dormant period. Snack bar beverage only. Not good if hungry.

Two different courses

As someone said in early review, front nine is fairly open but then the back gets tight and elevated. Incredible signature hole with a 100 foot drop. What a view. Enjoyed the course and would gain experience playing again.

Mountain golf

A tale of two nines. Front is open and friendly, back is shooting a rifle or bombing out there with a lot of vertical. I wouldn't play in the wind. Leave driver in bag except for par 3s from blues. ( on back). A challenge. Must be straight.
