Lake Junaluska Golf Course

Other than the course being excavated to put in new irrigation system was fun. reminded me of Caddyshack.

Even though they were upgrading sprinkler system, course was in good shape. Friendly check in and thoroughly explained how the construction will affect our round. Will definitely play this course again!

I played this course 9 years it’s come a long way kudos to superintendent

Need Ranger to regulate pace of play. Quit after 9 holes because course was so backed up and play so slow.

Very narrow course, really challenging at times, par 5s are fun because they are reachable in 2 for an average player. Greens were in excellent shape this round

My wife and I trying different courses in the Asheville/Greenville, SC area. We went here on a cold day and received an equally cold reception from the woman in the pro shop who checked us in. Without saying hello or welcome, she slaps a scorecard down in front and circles the holes that we are allowed to play that day. (1-5, 7-9 & 18). No apologies or explanation and since we had prepaid, they already had our money. She handed me a key and pointed to some carts parked outside. We played and had a pretty decent time, there were only a few other groups on the course. The fairways were in decent shape as were the greens. I cold tell that if there are a lot of players on the course, the chances of being hit by a stray ball are pretty high. Looking around there appeared to be no place to have a coffee or a drink or to just sit around in the clubhouse. The whole vibe on the course was that the employees in the pro shop thought they were doing us a favour just by talking to us. My wife hit a ball into a creek and an employee helped her fish it out so kudos to that gentleman. Oh and the capper was that I turned the cart in and lost a thermos we had brought. I admit, it may have fallen out which would have been my fault.But, it was the perfect capper to a downer of a day.

The pro shop did not inform me the Thursday Mens group consisting of 16 players teed off and there rounds could be slow, over 6 hours.

I teed off at 1030 at 2:30 I had completed 13 holes. Waited 30mins at the 14th tee before I left.
The pro came out to enforce slow play until he realize it was his Thursday Mens group. He just left, never said a word to the foursome.
The staff has no consideration for visiting players.
Course is worth playing , I would ask if they have a league playing, if so you can decide if you want to play a 6 & 7 hour round of golf.

This is a fun little course but they are reseeding the tees. They have temporary tees in front of the regular tees and there was not a level place to hit from all day. TEEOFF should have noted this during booking!

Junaluska is a mediocre golf course, with a poor layout and poor pace of play unless it’s empty. I am local and only play here when I have time and no other choice. The staff that are there are usually friendly, but they seem always understaffed and not prepared for the day. The course is short, but horribly laid out with some goofy holes and some dangerous holes.

Overall great course for the money, if you need par 3 practice it’s for you. Very short course with a par of 68. The only thing bad to say is there is no Marshall so the pace is garbage we felt rushed the whole front 9. But the greens are fantastic and the fairways are clean cut. Great value course

Nice course, well maintained. Could use a bit of fairway repair on 2 holes, may have been related to excess rain this year.
