Typical Mountain Resort Course

Overall the course is okay. Pretty short! Elevation changes! Carries over water often! Gimmicky holes! Undulated greens that really don't hold very well! A little pricey for what the course is! Some blind shots and shots with hidden trouble if you have never played there! Enjoyed the round with friends! Probably would play again if I found it on GN HD for $20! Go see for yourself!

Course still in winter mode

The greens had just been aerated and were very rough and hard to putt on. Fairways still brown. Several sand traps lacking deep sand. Course has a ways to go before it is in good condition. Been a hard winter on everything.

wonderful golfing experience

Staff was super friendly, got right on the course with no waiting.
Caught up with two groups on the course who were very nice and allowed us to play through. Greens in excellent shape as well as fairways for time of year. Highly recommend!

Wonderful mountain coarse

My brother and I live 100 miles apart but are able to meet half way between us at King wood golf coarse.Using Golf now is a great way to reserve a tee time as well as save a little money.The coarse is in great shape and the maintenance superintendant has done a wonderful job keeping the coarse up with what I hear a shortage in budget funds.

Need to Play More Than Once

This is a great course with lots of elevation changes. The greens are receptive and the fairways are in good shape. The only problem I see with course, there are many blind shots and doglegs that require you to play the course more than once in order to figure out what to hit off the tee. This coupled with the fact that my newly purchased Garmin Watch did not have the right yardages on some holes made playing difficult. All in all though this is a good course and a good value.

Beautiful

My new wife drove the cart, and enjoyed the breathtaking mountain views. I enjoyed the unique layout that features large elevation changes and a beautiful creek that runs throughout the course. The greens and fairways were in great condition. The only thing that kept me from giving Kingwood five stars is that the ball washers didn't have any water in them. I would definitely recommend this course.

It was a fun course to play!

This is a beautiful course and well maintained. It is not long but it is a little tricky. It has some holes going up and some going down the hills. In fact some going straight down the hill. It was a great experience and a lot of fun to play.

Nice course, but....

Although they had a roving Ambassador (ranger), the pace of play was 5 1/4 hours which diminished much of the pleasure that otherwise could have been experienced at what seemed to be a nice course.

This course is laid out in the middle of some small mountains flawlessly

Staff really does a great job making this golf course worth the very modest cost to play. Tight fairways with fantastic elevations, and fast greens keep you dialed in or else. We even were privy to a mother and baby dear running across one of the fairways. They also have a great stay and play deal which just make this experience even better.

Beautiful setting in NC mountains.

It rained for several holes in middle of round, leaving course wet, when it was already cart path only. Want to return when it is dry. Still enjoyed play.

Addictive!

This mountain course has ups and downs, mountain streams and wildflowers. Plenty of scenery to soften the pain of an errant shot.

We planned to play Sky Valley a lot, but enjoyed Kingwood so much more.
