Length 6517 yards
Slope 142
Rating 72.0

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.

Scenic and challenging

Beautiful and challenging course with lots of hills and valleys. Some of the best fairways I have ever played. Greens had been aerated and sanded that week so putting required more speed than normal. Friendly and professional staff. I got a bargain hot deal, but the rack rate is pricey. That said, stunning views and well-groomed course make it worth the cost.

Must Play

Great place, conditions are very good and the views are spectacular. One shame is the greens have hundreds of improperly or not at all fixed ball marks. So lazy and inconsiderate by players, not thr fault of the course. Fun range and staff friendly. I really enjoy this special place.

Great Course! Can’t wait to go back

What a setting for a golf course! So picturesque! Course conditions were good with the only exception being there were a myriad of pitch marks on every green which made it difficult to putt at times.

Pace of play was quite slow most of the day. Seems like they have a couple big groups out ahead which seemed to slow things up quite a bit. Sometimes 3 groups waiting on a tee box. The Ranger did what he could I believe.

Overall, probably my favorite course in WNC and will be looking for another GN deal to get back out there.

This course is must play because it is always in great condition. It is a fun layout with plenty of risk/reward holes and scenic views. If you are in Cherokee area this is course should be at the top of your list.
