Course constantly improving

Have played Etowah many times over the past 20 years and this is probable the best condition I have ever seen the course. The greens were absolutely perfect. Probable the best condition that I have played at any course. They have done a good job of restoring good grass on the fairways. There are still some areas that need some more work. The course layout is very good with a variety of hole layouts. You won’t be disappointed playing this course especially if they keep making improvements to the course!

Great course but confusing

I enjoyed playing this course but when it came to the back nine, there is no signage after you cross the road to indicate where #10 tee is located. I went to the most logical tee that matched the scorecard, but the GPS had no idea where I was.

Great condition

The staff was really friendly and helpful. I played as a single and got into a really nice group. The starter was super sweet. The course is in great condition a bit tricky but fun to play.

Great condition

I’ve played Etowah for years. Since going from 27 holes to 18 the course conditions have improved dramatically. It has become one of my favorite local courses.

Rough around the greens can punish you. Greens are rolling true and quick.

Saturday 18 holes

Beautiful day for golf really enjoyed it pace was a little slow on the front nine. Definitely different from the front and the back in the layouts. The back is much more hilly and a touch harder will be back.

Wet

Rain nearly every afternoon has the rough quite lush but some areas are boggy surrounding the greens. Still completely playable though.

Had a great round at Etowah

Fairways were lush. Greens were in great shape. you can expect wet conditions when playing mountain courses in August. Much better option than hard, dry pan fairways. Staff was very friendly and I ended the round with a beer at the 19th hole.

Consistent Etowah Valley Play

Course was sopping wet after heavy rain the day before, so CPO. Flat terrain on South course does not drain well, but most holes on West course were fine. Greens firm and well-groomed; fairways largely in good shape, traps were unraked & smooth as sidewalks, and tee boxes had healthy grass. Good courses for a workout!

Great all around

Booked a hot deal at 3 pm on a Friday. Didn’t have much time to get there but staff was extremely nice, and helpful letting me play when I got in, and didn’t make me rush. Everyone was very kind, the place was quiet and peaceful, the other players in front and behind me were respectful, and the course was in great shape.

Fun course

Pretty flat if you want a break from the hills. Of course it’s in great condition. The only thing I would knock would be the card pass. They all need to be re-asphalted.. They are in pretty rough condition.
