Pleasant Chestnut Round

Course is in very good shape - greens lush & firm, fairways well grown & groomed, rough was challenging but not gruesome, traps a bit ragged & rocky, & pace of play reasonable. Enjoyed the round!

Chestnut Hills, Mills River, NC

Very nice course and the greens & cart fees were reasonable. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Only thing they need is a map of the course. It's a mountain course and it can get hard to tell the layout of some of the holes. The staff was very courteous and helpful. Will definitely go back again.

Has more potential

I have played here 5 times over the past 2 years, always improving. Greens, carts are excellent. But, there are issues that are easily resolved and others that will be more costly. Easy..... 1) tee box on 11, get the mower out, 20 minutes, grass was 3 inches high. 2) tee box on #12, overseed or sod, it is awful. 12 green approach, stream plants need to be cut way back, it is only May and the green is totally blinded from 120 yards out.3) 13? Par 5. Put some red top painted stakes on where to go. I know where to go, but any first timer would have no idea. Its a weird hole to start with, but with no direction golfers are lost. Lastly there are some wood areas on stairs that need more grip tape. When wet, very dangerous.

Beautiful mountain course

This course was apparently closed for 2 years as it was being brought back to life. The course conditions are very good at this point. Truly an enjoyable golf outing!!

Good course

Ive played the course twice, course looked better this time. Both times ive had encounters with older ladies on the property, I can only assume were

members. Both times not liking were I parked which was just general parking. Just odd but every thing else was great.

Tough course, rough conditions

The course is in the mountains which makes for nice scenery but also several very elevated greens, slanted fairways and water carries. The course is poorly marked and there was no information about hole layouts and in some cases how to get to the next tee box. The fairways were a mix of bald patches, dried grass and thick new growth.

Views!!!

Vacation from Florida….. The views absolutely AMAZING! Course layout was fun and challenging. They just punched the greens but for a family outing and the scenery $15/person was a no brainer.

I’d love to come back one day.

Needs work

This course is not worth paying 50.00 for a round on a Thursday. Tees are shaggy and beat up. Fairways are in poor shape. Layout of course is not great. Greens are in good shape ( the only positive) tried to grab a coke for the ride home but no one in the bar would come out front. Just hear them talk and whistle but would not respond to me. Maybe in a month or so the course will come around but right now the cost to value just isn't there.
