Rating 73.8

Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Brasstown Valley Resort offers breathtaking mountain vistas for a completely unique golfing experience. Golf Digest has even ranked Brasstown as one of the top courses to play in Georgia. The golf course is about two hours north of Atlanta and it feels completely secluded, winding through wildlife preserves and weaving around ponds and streams. The golf course has a Scottish links style layout that hardly needed any designing. The mountainous terrain provides plenty of slopes and undulations for uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies. Brasstown Valley Resort measures nearly 7,000 yards already but it can feel even longer due to the elevation changes. Water hazards also come into play on 10 holes and there are strategically placed bunkers lurking long the greensides.

A gem in the mountains

I'd been wanting to play this course for a while and finally had the chance while passing through Young Harris, GA. Beautiful views, good course conditions and excellent weather made for a great round. Better have your sand game tuned up because what it doesn't have in water hazards, it makes up for in bunkers. I would definitely recommend it and plan on returning to play it again.

killer sand traps

Staff was courteous helpful amassbfriendly. Beverage cart circled a few times throughout play. Course was in great condition especially considering there had been so much rain this spring. Sand traps will eat your shots. We spotted a red fox in the brush too.

Best course in the mountains, great day.

Lovely setting in a valley surrounded by mountains, very well maintained course, friendly staff, and a challenging lay-out. Large greens and soft bunker sand make this a course worth returning too.

Return trip planned

This course is a must play. Greens were perfect although very slow, probably because of all the recent rain. Some minor winter kill in places. Mostly dry, only 3 holes cart path only. Lots of bunkers. Great views. Really good variety of holes that will make you use most, or all clubs in your bag. Pretty wide landing areas off the tee. My 2nd time playing will absolutely be back.

Challenging but rewarding

I tipped the course out and even though I'm a long hitter it gave me a run for my money...especially the par 3's. Course was a bit wet (which didn't help my distance) but it has rained the previous 2 days. Greens were fast but fair (although still had some plugs from aeration). Layout is phenomenal and great for both the advanced and beginning players.

March 26th round of golf

Played after a rainy day. Was windy but the course had grass on the fairways from which to hit, but of course in was dormant. All in all a very good day.

This course has poor drainage

Their hadn't been any rain in three days when I played this course and it was very soggy. It was cart path only which was unexpected. The tee boxes and greens were either elevated or below the cart path which was a tiring experience for a senior such as myself. This course is definitely for the younger golfers. The carts did not have gps range finders which you would expect from a supposedly resort such as this. Not enough value for the price.

Tournament behind us

We had a great time at Brasstown. However, there was a local "best ball" tournament which started after we teed off. We had players "breathing down our necks"! We play ready golf and are very considerate of pace of play but this was very intimidating. We let 2 groups pass us only to have more coming.

A Keeper

The quality of this course is excellent. The views are most enjoyable and there are no homes on the course.

The designer made the course fair but challenging for women. Each hole shares the problems for each tee regardless of where you tee from.

Conditions are great . A wonderful round. Had a fawn follow me for two holes...what a gallery.

Great Links course

This is a great golf course and the best by far for North Georgia. The course is lush with all of the rain we keep having and I am sure it is diffucult to mow . Stay in the fairways as you will lose plenty of balls if not.
I would only ask they cut some of the high stuff so the tee shots are not blind. The course is plenty tough without blind tee shots.

Yeah, this is Golf!

Beautiful course in the mountains. Whenever you get tired of playing the same old inexpensive public courses and want to treat yourself, this is it. The setting is beautiful, greens were fantastic, and oh those fairways of lush green carpet. Driving range, putting green, plenty of water to drink, even a beverage cart on a not very busy day. It's in a resort so the restaurant, gift shop and clubhouse are all in the same bldg.
The course has plenty of traps, some, but not a whole lot of water, and fairways that are just open enough to present a challenge.
Can't wait to come back in November.

Best deal ever!!!

I played solo on a Sunday at lunch. I probably added a 1/2 hour to the round because I couldn't stop taking pictures, and still finished up in 3:15. The starter was super nice and helpful with explaining the layout. The fairways and greens were in great shape. I would strongly recommend this course.

Great condition in cool North Ga Mountains

Excellent condition and great pace of play ( under 3:30). Beautiful mountain scenery from every hole. Only complaint is that they do not now down to edges of lakes and streams. I know it is an environmentally sensitive course but they could Bush hog or now more key areas. Other than that I would give it a 5 star rating. Greens were very good as well and perfect speed, fast enough but not out of control.
