Sequoyah National Golf Club
About
Nestled in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains, Sequoyah National Golf Club is surrounded by mature oak and fir trees. Owned by the Eastern Band of Cherokee, the course is routed through flowered valleys that provide a colorful complement to the surrounding mountain views. It feels peacefully secluded but it is conveniently located less than an hour from Asheville. Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed the layout. The rolling terrain guarantees a range of different elevation changes but there are also some flat holes. The golf course is a tough test, offering several forced carries over water and severe dogleg fairways. The sloped greens are no easy feat either. Proper club selection and accurate approach shots will be generously rewarded. Sequoyah National also offers an expansive practice area with a driving range and putting and chipping greens.

Excellent course with extraordinary views of the Smokies
Excellent course with extraordinary views of the Smokies
Beautiful Mountain Course
This was my first time playing this track and it won't be my last. The course was in immaculate condition with perfectly manicured fairways and greens. Even though I didn't hit from the bunkers, they were visually in great shape. Placing your shots is key to playing well here and the undulations of the greens are something to behold. The views around the course of the mountainous terrain was gorgeous and being from WNC, I'm used to this type of view. If you can make it during the fall with leaf season, you will be in for a real treat on this course. 10/10 recommend with the hot deal and I will be back soon.
Must play
If you're going to the casino in Cherokee I highly recommend playing Sequoyah. The upgrades to the course was outstanding. Only got to play 11 holes because of a storm but was given a 9 hole rain check. Can't wait to go back!
Great course in excellent condition. Staff is very friendly.
Gem of a course
Great awesome layout with amazing views. Great conditions. Such a great course deserves a much better clubhouse, which was average at best- like a muni.
Great Renovations
Loved this course before the redo but now with the new Zoysia in nicely it is as good a place to play, in great condition!
very challenging course
unique golf course in Smoky Mountains . Back tees are only 6500 yds- slope 142 Blue 6125yds slope 139. In many places if your shot misses the fairway your ball is gone-- no need to look. Play conservative--- fairways & greens---- birdies are available. The aggressive player gets chewed up here.
Amazing fairways and greens.
This course was in great shape. I play a lot of places including Myrtle Beach. This course is as good if not better than most courses at Myrtle Beach.
My new home course
The zoysia fairways and bent greens, the mountain views, the no standing water, the list goes on about how awesome this course is.. The Superintendent, the Greenskeepers, theGolf pro, the general manager and the retail manager and those under them all deserve a raise.
Awesome fairways & greens!
It is an amazing mountain course that will challenge your game. I recommend U bring a range finder with slope measuring & adjusting ability.
I would recommend this course to everyone; certainly” best” in area!
And, I would play it again. Very cool!
Outstanding experience
I drove over two hours to get to this relatively remote location and it was worth it. A little pricey when compared with other courses in the general area but well worth it. An bsolutely beautiful layout in immaculate condition from tee to green. A true mountain course with huge elevation changes and gorgeous views. It is a tough course, though not overly long at just over 6500 from the tips. Drives that don’t find the fairway pay a heavy price with a lot of natural growth areas bordering the holes. Greens are huge but with large swales that can result in a lot of three putts. I will make the trip again. I highly recommend it.
Tough course
Beautiful course but tough .. target golf for sure
Sequoyah Experience
The Sequoyah National is one of the best courses I've seen and played in my golf career. The fairways are like carpet. You must bring your (A) game to this course because, there is only a slight room for errors. The greens were spectacular. A little slow in the morning due to the morning dew. I think the best features of this course was the view. Awesome !!!!!.
Excellent Playing Surface
This course had the best playing surface of any course I have been too. From tee box to green, course was outstanding. Bunkers were consistent, greens were tough but rolled the same on #1 all the way through #18. The views throughout the course were also incredible. The course was tough but I would definitely play better if I played there again, course management is a must. Great Experience!
