Hot day of golf.

This is a tough course. The course was in excellent condition. Be prepared to walk a lot. Many of the holes are cart path only.

Gatlinburg golf coure

Overall good experience for the price. It played slow because a couple of groups decided to play as more that a foursome. After calling the pro shop they came out and fixed it.

There are alot of blind shots and fairways and few level lies. Greens are fast and smooth.

Dry County

I did not realize Gatlinburg golf course was in Sevierville when I made the teatime not until I got to the course and realized it was not in Gatlinburg and it was a dry County, just beware… we waited on every hole at least 5-10 minutes for The groups in front of us

Fun time

Course was cart path only so there was much walking since there was a bit of rain the night before. Course was in good condition. You need to place your shot carefully but managed to get a few pars. Greens are in good condition.

Wonderful views

Good course overall, several holes have elevated tee boxes and beautiful views. Got paired with a 3 some unexpectedly by the stater (which i understand isn’t all that uncommon) and the only other complaint is the blind tee shots / with hardly any lay up options. I will play this course again on the next visit to the Smoky mountains.

June 16/24

First time here. Front 9 fairly straightforward, back 9 much more slope and blind shots. Really need to play it a few times for shot selection and distances. Unfortunately did not have chance to do this as from far out of this area. Would recommend the course, given the need to play repeat rounds.

Nice place to play when in the Smokies!

Course was in pretty good condition considering they had recently punched the greens. Pace of play was a little slow but hey we’re on vacation so no worries! Would definitely love to play again. Keep up the good work guys!

LOTS of elevation changes!

Being from South Georgia, the changes in elevation took a little getting used to. While it was something new, it wasn’t impossibly difficult. The front 9 is definitely easier because it’s more open. The back 9 is quite a bit harder. It was much, much tighter than the front. The facility was nice and the staff was very cordial. Picturesque views all over the course! The only negative was the pace of play. We played the front at a normal pace, but the back was a different story. There’s a 15 minute per hole time limit, but I don’t think the golfers in front of us were aware of that piece of information. Other than that, we had a great time. We’d love to go back!
