Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort

I am a single-digit handicap, and this place is spectacular. I loved everything about it, including the beautiful layout! I like elevated tees, and this place has everything I dreamed about

They had 2 inches of rain the previous night so it was cart path only. The views are amazing and the course set up is high handicapper friendly. There are a variety of tees for all handicaps. Elevation is a challenge on the back nine which makes it play at least 5-10 strokes more than the front nine. I want to go play it again right now.

Too many greens had too many divot marks. Super frustrating. Other than that. Loved the layout. Loved the course. Incredible views everywhere. Can’t wait to get back out there

Was at McLemore and very disappointed, the guy I played with (also disappointed) told me about this course not too far away headed north, and I’m so glad I played it - it was spectacular !!!!

Elevation. Elevation. Elevation. Very challenging greens. Superb conditions. Great staff. Minimal food and beverages. If you’re in the area or anywhere within 90min, put it in your list. You will it be disappointed. Next time I come back I’m playing it twice.

This was one of the funnest courses that I have played. Great elevation changes and beautiful scenery.

Love this course. Played it for the first time this past NOV and got to play it again a couple of weeks ago. Impressive views. Great golf. The greens were in great condition and relatively fast. Lots of undulations and slope (mountain course). I had just come back from a week in Monterey playing the heavy hitters and this course is just as majestic in it's views. Not many flat lies to be found but an extremely fun course. Brave shots executed well are rewarded but if not, you are most likely in trouble and looking at a double easy.

Love this course and can't wait to get back to play.

This is definitely the best course in North Carolina in my opinion. Perfect conditions, unbelievable layout. Beautiful views of the mountains all around with true dramatic elevation changes on most holes. I live 11 hours away in Florida, but I will be back up in fall to play it again!

This course needs the following changes.

1. Restaurant (food and service)

2. Practice area (short and long game)

3. Bigger parking lot

4. Better set up in pro-shop

5. Provide at least two bottles of water and towel

6. Locker room for shower

This is the second time I traveled to play at this course, separated by several years. Both times we played, the round took over six hours to complete. Every group we saw both ahead of us and behind us waited extensively on every shot. For us, it was a 3-5 minute wait on every tee and fairway shot across the entire 18 holes. Several groups ahead of us and behind us abandoned their rounds because they had another activity they had scheduled following their round.

I love the layout and condition of the course, It is very fun and challenging, but playable for most golfers. Some forced carries for women, however, are extremely difficult, but worth taking a shot. But the brutal pace of play completely overwhelms all of the good qualities of the course.

The lack of sufficient restrooms and food service on the course is extremely problematic for women and elderly golfers, in particular.

Pleasure to play the course again.

Only setback - pin on 15 was a joke.

Definitely worth the money! Fourth time I played this course and it gets better every time. Best views in the Smokey’s are found on this MUST visit course!

Course was well maintained. Would definitely recommend this course.

The course was in decent shape for the time of year. It is a very picturesque course lots of beautiful views. Most holes are very hilly with slanted fairways or narrow fairways. Playing this course for the first time did not know where to play my shots, lost lots of balls. I got a great deal through golfnow, I would not pay full price to play this course. The person who checked us in could have been a little friendlier. He wasn't rude just when you are dealing with the public and I told him it was our first time golfing he could have put an effort out to make us feel welcome.
