Tough, fair & fun course

Connestee Falls was a joy to return to. Generous fairways, sloped greens, lots of deer & a few white squirrels, helped make a fun day on the course. Many uphill approach shots to elevated greens, make it fairly tough, but overall a great value with wonderful views and a very friendly staff.

Always fun, but always SLOW

Love the course. It's a 45 minute drive for us, but we try to play there once a month. It's a mountain course with a lot of elevation changes. The greens are in good condition, consistent, large and usually well taken care of for the amount of play they receive. Course plays narrow with trees on almost every hole. If you have a wicked slice/hook, be ready to search. Contours of the fairways can betray a shot with side spin. Staff is always friendly and keep you informed. My biggest complaint is a lack of a ranger. Pace of play is always, always an issue. Perhaps if we played at a different time, things would be different. Unfortunately, 4-5 hours is an expected round. Our group of 3 usually can play in 3.5-4 hours. Make sure you enjoy the deer as we've never played without seeing at least 20, this time, we saw close to 50 as we had plenty of time to stop and count them. Get your camera's ready on the back as one of the best long range mountains views in Western North Carolina is located on one of the holes on the back 9.

Great course

Overall I give the course a great review. .

Great condition, even considering it’s winter golf in western NC..

Greens were in great shape and rolled nice. My one issue is that all of the greens were a little small in size, so you really need to make good on your approach shots. Staff were very friendly.. The on-site Bar was temporarily closed due to Staffing /covid so we couldn’t do a 19th .

Looking forward to playing it again!

Great course

This course has such wonderful variety, every hole is different. You will likely use every club in your bag. The course maintenance is very good. The views are fabulous, you really feel like you are playing a mountain course. Highly recommended

Beautiful course

Great layout. First two holes are nice warm up holes (medium length par 4 & 5). After that, it get a bit more challenging (but fair). Nice views & deer on nearly every hole. Greens are fast, but will accept an approach shot.

I absolutely love Connestee Falls!!

This course is really nice, the members are super friendly! I love going there to play even though it's an hour drive for me to get to the course. It's a beautiful place and the spectators make it even more beautiful! They tend to watch you on all the tough holes....

Love this place!

The course is always in great condition, so beautiful to play. Hitting over deer and geese, arching white squirrels play. Course is challenging without being difficult.
