Challenging

Beautiful course with tight fairways. Deep roughs. Only thing lacking is driving range or driving cage for warm up. I’ll be back!

Great course but tough.

This course is for experienced golfers in good physical condition. Miss the fairway and good luck finding the ball in the deep bermuda. In my opinion there were several areas where you couldnt drive the carts, so lots of walking and hard on older golfers! It was hot and it seemed every hole we were looking for golf balls. We were paired with two other men who frequently lost golf balls and we tried to help find theirs. Im 75, it very good shape, but the heat the hills and time spent looking for golf balls wore me out. There should be water and or drinks available on the course!

Nice track

Course is really a tale of two nines. Front is mostly open while the back is tree lined and tight. Par threes are a real challenge from the back tees. Overall a good test and a good experience.

Think twice before paying $$$s

We were excited to play this course since it looked well maintained both online and visually once we arrived in Pigeon Forge.

What we could have never imagined given we have played so many courses nationwide was how poorly this course is managed.! First, we paid for 18 holes only to start our round to learn a group of 8 young men were two groups ahead of us and they were hackers!! Seriously no golf course at height of the season and on a weekend puts 8 as 1 group on a course with NO marshall to manage time of play.

Second, no cart people and NO water except on hole 6 and 16. Third, must get code for restroom which thankfully the other person paired with us was given it 😅. Forth, many of the holes had swarms of nat like bugs causing us to run back to buy bug spray. Fifth, no iron or wood warm up area only putting and chipping ( we didn’t like but wasn’t a deal killer either)

At the turn after 9 we had had enough especially given we should have only had about an hour and half to play vs another almost 3 hours so we went in to get a refund for the back nine which they refused. Instead gave us a credit 😡 seriously we live over a 1k miles away!! We should have been given credit to at least Golf Now! We would have settled for pro shop credit and they wouldn’t do that either.

The course itself though was nicely maintained though.

Im pretty sure I have never written a review for Golf Now so thought enough of this unfortunate experience especially given the cost of $75 each thatt for many is a lot. For us it wasn’t a $ issue - it was the principle of the situation when it comes to customary golf outing.

Course was in good condition. Greens were rolling well with only a few bad spots.

Layout was interesting - especially the back. Lots of shots where proper positioning was required to have a chance at par.

Great value for course condition and layout

First time playing this course with my wife. The course was in great shape and very challenging, especially the back nine. We would play it again if we are ever back in the area.

Great place to play

Twist and turn through the mountains on this great golf course. Great greens, challenging tee shots, severe elevation changes. Overall great course. Wish they had a better practice area and driving range, but the course was a lot of fun and in great shape.

Back Nine is Crazy

I played with my 12 year old and we had a blast. I birdied 1 and 10 and neither of them have easy tee shots. The front is nice but the back is very memorable. It was smoking hot out when we played but we still had a good time. Very scorable if you can drive your ball where you intend to. Hole 12 is great! It plays around 130-135 but looks like way more from the elevation.
