Great Day of Winter Golf

Course was great for this time of year. It was like 20 degrees the night before we played. Greens were fast, tees were great , and fairways were fine for this time of year.. Solid struck golf shots held the greens well. Was Pretty darn Impressed. And me and my dad had alot of fun. Travis was very nice as always in the Shop...Just a great day for Winter Golf In the Mountains..

Needs a little work!

I used to play this course quite often, and it was very well kept. But this time, bunkers was rocky, greens had been aerated maybe a month ago, and wasn't filled with sand properly. Greens hadn't been mowed, so between aeration and mowing, greens putted terribly. I probably won't return for a while. The only reason it was ok, was because of the great deal on GolfNow.com

Nice Relaxing Course

Played Carolina & Dogwood. Carolina very flat and repetitive. Dogwood has more elevation changes. Both very short and not much challenge but still good for an ego boost.

Not worth the money.

Called and booked a tee time a week in advance. Asked about price and was referred to their website, which was odd. Arrived at the course on Friday, mid-day and checked in. "Dale" behind the counter was a smart-alec. Was told the price was $68.75 for 18 with a cart. Told him that according to their website which I was referred to by their staff was $55.00 on weekdays and $65.00 on weekends. He said that was wrong. I said, that wasn't my problem. He brought out a sheet of paper and said he was giving me the "local" discount at that. Against my better judgment, I payed and went about my round.

Arriving at starter shack, that gentleman was very nice and helpful. The putting green was small and sparse. Went off #1 Carolina and hit the middle of the fairway. For the price I paid, I did not expect the course to be loaded with crabgrass, which it was. All fairways loaded and approaches as well. Very few ball washers on the course which were needed if you hit a green. Thick mud. When a ball washer was available none had towels and very few had water, much less soapy solution. Not the experience I was hoping for at that price.

Short, relaxing

My wife and I played Carolina and Dogwood. Dogwood is a bit hillier but quite short; I played back tees and found many lob wedges as second shots on the par fours. Course in very good condition and they are pretty lax about which courses you play, and they will let you stop for lunch after nine and then resume play. A great "date" track.

This course was fun to play

It was fun to play mountain golf. We played the Dogwood & the Blueridge nines. A lot of crabgrass in the fairways, but the greens were fine. The staff was great, inside and out!
Would recommend playing it. We may go back if we have the time this week.

Staff is excellent and very very friendly

The staff was over the top nice and very helpful. I would play here again in a heartbeat! The course was great and a lot of fun but the starter was such a nice guy and gave us such a friendly welcome that I just thought I have to write a review. I don't normally write reviews either.

Great Historic Course in the Mountains

mMy family thoroughly enjoyed our round on this historic course. We played the Carolina (designed by Donald Ross) and the Dogwood for our 18 hole round. The staff was very friendly and professional from Jerry at the Starter Booth to Amy serving up cold beer in the bar. I hope that Waynesville knows how much a gem they have in this facility.

smooth sailing

The course is a nice mix of reachable holes, smooth fairways, true greens - all set in a mountain valley with pretty views. There are really no long holes for the stated pars - with good rolls on a dry day. A great course for the average golfer and pleasant to play. No blind shots - with good visibility of greens on almost all holes.

One area for improvement is the low water pressure in the only fairway fountain - making it undrinkable.
