GOLD IS BRASS,….
Located in Brasstown Valley resort, this place is way more like finding GOLD!!
Fabulous views everywhere and fun track to play
It was my first time there I will return. The course got me for a couple of strokes it wouldn’t on my next visit. Very friendly to a 12 handicap player and my wife loved it from her tees as well
The facility is really first class. Maybe I shouldn’t have been so delighted, but it is fun to find a friendly, first rate place that was “under billed “ to me!!
Dear Reader,….. I actually own my own golf course so it has to beat a higher level to get me to type this long!… enjoy your game and stay on site if you can.
Brasstown
Great Course with great views. From hilly to valley holes.
One of the best in North Ga
Course conditions are excellent right now. Greens are in great shape and rolling fast and true. I feel this course is a little over priced compared to courses in similar condition but great track nonetheless.
A Real Beauty
Lovely setting and well configured golf course. In a valley surrounded by mountains.
Course was beautifully conditioned and you’ll need every club in your bag.
Greens ran very true but running only at 9-10 on Stimp.
18th hole is only weakness. It’s one of the longest holes but has the narrowest fairway.
A MUST PLAY
Annual Golf trip with 8 guys, decided to give Blue Ridge a look this year. I found Brasstown Valley online, great website and the course looked amazing. After playing it Sunday, we went back and played it again Monday!! We played 5 courses in 6 days, and this was everyone's favorite! The course was in phenomenal shape! The staff was awesome! Will definitely play it again the next time I'm in the area!

Beautiful and Scenic
One of the most scenic golf courses I've ever played. Sand traps and bunkers galore. Fairways were nicely manicured. Rough was difficult to hit out of. Greens were a bit slow to me and didn't roll smoothly. Overall tho, it was a great experience, and I would definitely play it again. Very friendly service.
Great Layout - Beautiful Views and Scenery
This was the second time I have played Brasstown Valley golf course. It is almost a two hour drive for me to get to Young Harris. Each time I have driven the two hours to play golf, I always have a great time and leave wishing the course was much closer to where I live so I could play there more often. Great course and lots of fun. The course is nestled in the mountains with beautiful views and nice cool weather (cooler than the Atlanta area). Beautiful, well stocked clubhouse.
The service and hospitality are top notch. It is great to be helped with your clubs when you arrive at the bad drop area and given assistance and instructions as to where to go, what to do, etc.
The course has lots of humps and mounds and elevation changes as well as large bunkers everywhere. From the tee box, it appears there are bunkers are everywhere, but the fairways are very generous with plenty of landing area. There is lots of sand and water near the greens. I love the fact there are no homes on the course and you get a very secluded and nature-filled golf experience. The bunkers were in fantastic condition (I had to hit of out plenty of them today).
The layout is great with no two holes alike. The layout is also challenging and fun. There is lots of sand and water. I love the fact there are no homes on the course and you get a very secluded and nature-filled golf experience.
Friendly, scenic small-resort golf
Tucked away in the mountains, Brasstown Valley is a boutique but relatively affordable resort owned by the State of Georgia. With a skeletal staff (in keeping with the philosophy of the managing company), they manage to deliver nice service and golf. The course is very much a child of the 90s, with mounding and large bunkering sometimes sucking attention away from the beautiful mountain scenery while at other times interacting with it. Highlights include the par fives on the back nine: the 11th and 15th, which pose different but equally interesting risk-reward questions. Now that Old Toccoa Farm is open about 40 minutes away, any partnership will benefit Brasstown Valley.
Another fun weekend at Brasstown!
6th annual weekend of golf at Brasstown. Our foursome heads there every Sept and this year's retreat was as enjoyable as any of them.
A bit disappointed in condition of greens, as they seemed to be a bit diseased/rotted and also they recently punched and top dressed, but otherwise all was well. We made the best of it by instituting a 2-putt limit. Fun layout and mix of holes, lots of bunkers and some water in play as well. Tees are cut a tad shaggy for my liking but not to any detriment.
The resort itself is perfect for those looking for nice but not super-swanky. Pool, hot tub, gym, tennis, horseback riding, spa (offsite but close), as well as a sports-bar/pub and a nicer sit-down restaurant all provide a solid place for the group to stay and play. We'll be back!
Brasstown Valley Golf Course
Spectacular views. Lush fairways and very good greens. Bunkers are immaculate.
Great Layout - Bad Ending
We had 2 groups, husbands & wives. Course was wet but very playable. Greens had not recovered very well from being aerated 4 weeks earlier. We have played the course before & had a good time today, until the very end. We left a cart on 18 cart path to unload bags next to the parking lot. As one cart guy brought one of us down to the parking lot, another one stomped over to the cart that we were planning on taking back up to the clubhouse. As he was driving off he muttered “bit..” at one of the wives, thinking that they had left the cart. This was unacceptable but the wives didn’t want us to cause a scene. Not sure if we’ll be back.
Great course
Wonderful friendly people. Course layout was great. Great view. Only thing is we went after a rainy day and the driving range was closed.
A thumbs up on the whole course!
Plenty of room all around most greens !
Wish they would let you WALK !!?? No big hills - just little distance going over to #3 and back to #16 under highway, NO big deal !
Bad timing
This course is always in great shape and it was except for the fact that they had just punched the greens on top dressed with sand. Also the amount of rain recently had three or four holes that were cartpath only along with the two or three that are always cartpath only so if you have trouble walking across fairways I would give it some time to dry out but I love the course and had a great time even though the weather was bad
Welcome to the swamp
Course is in rough shape. There has been a lot of rain recently but we called ahead and they said the course was in good shape, just a little wet in spots. It was just a little wet in spots, then really wet everywhere else. They really should have closed the course it was way too wet. Pace of play was atrocious. We had to quit on the 12th hole after 4.5 hours. 4.5 hours to play 12 holes. We even called the marshal once but they didn’t do anything to help place of play.
Greens are also in terrible shape and they are having huge issues with fungus or some disease. The price was fair given the poor condition of the greens. But it makes me very sad that such a great course is going downhill so quickly.
