Move up

2nd time I played this course. Forgot how long the forced carries actually are. Unless you hit consistent bombs with your driver, move up a set of tees. Pay attention to the flat areas of the tee boxes.

My only real complaint is that they were doing a lot of maintenance all over the course, including spraying the turf next to us while we were playing. I am concerned about possible exposure to toxins.

On 15, if you can go for it and cut the corner, you will be very close to the green. You'll see when you get to that hole.

Fantastic Golf Course and Views

In a word ... this course is STUNNING. Every tee box is a post card worthy view and the course conditions were excellent. Friendly staff were helpful in getting situated for the driving range and tee time. I've organized golf trips for over 20 years and Sequoyah National is a course that I would definitely design a golf trip around as a marquis course. Side note: Course was about and hour from Gatlinburg, TN and the drive through the Smoky Mountains NP at 7AM was delightful. Driving through the park we saw a bear crossing the road a few hundred feet ahead of us and herds of elk on the NC side as we got near Cherokee, NC.

Can't wait to play Sequoyah National again soon and I offer my highest recommendation to play this course if you can.

Keep It in the Fairway!

The fairways were reasonably wide, but be careful not to stray beyond the first cut of rough because the second cut can be brutal. The greens are undulating and very smooth, but not as fast as they appear. A good quality golf course tee to green.

Fantastic experience

The scenery is spectacular and It didn’t seem to matter how well I played or not. The layout is honest with everything in front of you. A little tough for a first timer to pick the right club and/or line from all those elevated tees. Course was in tiptop shape from tee to green. I can’t wait to play it again! .

Beautiful Mountain Course!

A must play if you're in Western NC mountains. Played in 3 hours in the afternoon.

Golf on 6/17

Fantastic course. The staff members I met were awesome and very friendly. The layout was very enjoyable and challenging. The fairway spongy grass was a different experience for me and very nice to hit from. The greens were fun to putt on and read. Unfortunately there were a lot of ball marks and unraked bunkers from the inexperienced/ inconsiderate golfers in front of me. The views were amazing. This course reminded me of my favorites from central and northern VA but far better. I will be playing this course every time we return for sure!

Great Staff made for great first impression

Very friendly staff got the morning off to a great start. Se wasn’t busy so I went out as a single. Front nine was a good mix of warm up for a few holes and then some more fun/challenging without killing the score card right out fo the gate. 10 & 11 take all that confidence back tho. Some of the craziest cart paths I’ve ever been up/down

Overall conditions were fair looks like some re-sod and new drainage had been cut in and didn’t take (possibly due to the season) and the tee boxes were all sanded pretty heavily.

With perfect conditions I would think the average $90-100 price tag is justified. I paid $60 on a Hot Deal and I think with the current conditions that’s even a little high.

Hopefully conditions improve for summer time.. would definitely play again and recommend.

It was raining all day.. I tried to contact you all to cancel the. Round. The course was very wet and highly which made it difficult to walk up the hills. For your ball.

Once was enough

Greatly overpriced. Decent course in pretty good condition. A lot of sidehill/downhill/uphill lies. Not a lot of fun, really. Did I mention it was greatly overpriced?

Excellent Mountain Layout But Average Condition

We expected quality condition with all the hype about their bunkers, fairways and green repair & grass replacement. Most of the tee area were hard as rock, the fairways were all patchy and greens were bumpy. It looks like they have changed the management team and managed the operation locally.

Great layout horrible greens

Course has a great layout but when we checked in no one let us know that they just punched the greens and sanded them. Overpriced for those conditions
