Bent Creek Golf Village

Great people running the show. Not a $70 course. Enjoyed the members I was fortunate to meet and play with.

The course is layed out well with great views of the rolling hills and a good amount of water (creek and ponds). Front nine was easier than the back. The back is in more in the mountains and has multiple blind shots. Lots of fun. Highly recommend. No driving range, just putting green. I would say a cart is a must, especially on the back 9.

Everyone I encountered at Bent Creek was an example of hospitality. Friendly and helpful!

The course was saturated with rain, so conditions were not ideal. It’s a tough course with blind shots and narrow shot lanes. I loved the site, with trees over the cart paths and beautiful steams along side.

Front 9 is some great views and good challenge holes.

Back 9, strap in for some target golf. Super fun

I really enjoyed my round here. The front 9 was conventional, and the back 9 was, in the words of the Marshall, a ‘mountain course’. This meant on several holes you couldn’t see the green, only the 150 yard marker. The course was in great shape. The water challenges were from a running stream.

Beautiful setting in the Smokies. Great value - I’d definitely play here again.

Was sold on it due to Player design. Solid layout. Back 9 was a bit more target golf. Good views. Greens were slow. Round was $60. Good value.

Very nice course. Just be ready for trouble. Streams and bunkers will harass you throughout your round. You have to be precise on some holes or it is disaster.

Little to no food options. The course was in horrible condition, dirt tee box’s! The course has so much potential unfortunately it has not been maintained well. From sand traps full of bees, dirt filled fairways and poorly lit bathrooms.

Good course layout and pace of play was good. Back nine was closed and there were no signs indicating that the back nine was closed due to a fallen tree across a bridge. In addition no one told us when we checked in that the back nine was closed

No snack bar was open either. Not a bad course, just disappointed that no information provided about back nine.

Bent Creek is our favorite course!! Very nice area and we loveee the ladies in the pro shop, Heather is the best!

I get helping the greens, but they were practically unputtable! Front nine still a fun layout but back nine was gimmicky and odd. Views we’re nice just not anything golf wise to get excited about!

I’ve played many rounds with recently punched greens. These were the worst. Like asphalt with excessive sand on top. I called the pro shop for 30 minutes straight before I booked on GolfNow with hopes of asking the course conditions. No one would answer the phone. The phone was ringing the entire time I was in the pro shop and no one bothered to answer it, which explains why I had so much trouble trying to call in advance and discuss course conditions. Would’ve been nice to be told beforehand that the greens were awful (and maybe a small discount on the green fees?). I understand regular course maintenance (and appreciate quality upkeep), but driving 4 hours round trip, and paying FULL PRICE to putt on trash was really disappointing.

The greens are in good shape, with only a couple needing some attention. The fairways need a little love. All off the rough areas have been beautifully trimmed for the preseason. There was much storm debris that was nicely cleared. Kudos to the course crew!!

It’s late March and fairway grass is still dormant. Front nine is a fairly flat layout. The back nine is mountain golf. Precise shots and some required exact distance necessary to play a few holes. I did get my only birdie on one of the back nine’s par three. We will come back again later in the season. I’m sure the fairways will have greened up. For the price a very nice course to play. The back nine reminded us of Fairfield Glades courses.
