Would not return

Views are beautiful, condition of fairways great. Some holes truly unfair tests (17 237 yd par 3, tiny bail out area to left, marsh to right) other holes offer horrible lies even from middle of fairway(not just uneven lies which are expected from mountain course, but almost shelves of elevation. . Greens very bumpy (other courses played were perfect..cleghorn and connestee for far less $). Golf cart gps is awful. Each hole no fewer than 3-4+ messages dinging with constantly repetitive messages…”dont go in the tall grass” limit time in tall grass” cart path only(it was after a rainfall…yes…we know its cart path..) advertisements for casino etc..etc. Clubhouse was underwhelming for the cost of green fee. The staff in pro shop probably the least welcoming I’ve seen in long time. Heavier set guy w unkempt hair couldn’t look or act less professional. Basically one word answers for any questions also smart @&$ comment about losing a score card when asked for a second one. Made us feel like we were bothering him. After asking about replay on phone before booking i was told replay rate was for cart fee). After completing first round, i was told it was $50. Money was taken without anything being entered into a computer or cash register and was left out on counter. No part of our experience that day justified what they charge for a green fee.

I hope Heaven has a golf course like this

If you are looking for a course to take your breath away, look no further, this place is it. If you are looking for a course to challenge you like you have never been challenged before, this place is it. If you are looking for a staff that is proud of what they have and will do whatever they can to make you happy, this place is it.

This course is the best course I have ever played! I hope that when I die and go to heaven that they have a course as great as this one.

Upstate Foursome

There was not an aeration alert when I booked. Greens had just been aereated. Love the course and layout. Course conditions are always excellent and the staff is always courteous and friendly. Ratings are usually
5 stars for everything, but putting was a challenge during this round. We will definitely be back. Thanks

Great course.

Beautiful championship style course in the mountains. Only negatives were that all bathrooms were out of order and the greens had just been aerated.

Sequoyah Nat

Had a good day despite the greens having been punched and sanded. The layout is awesome and the scenic shots are hard to beat. The pace was slow due to getting paired with a young couple who had no idea how to play golf, but we ditched them after 9 holes. Also we had to wait a few times on the grounds crew to drag the greens but that was understandable. I would definitely like to go back when the course conditions are prime. Our round was discounted so the price was excellent for what we got.0

Winter conditions are stellar

This course is a gem in the winter months. Irrigation is top of the line and greens roll true. If you can get on for under $75 a round, it’s a steal.

Lots of elevation changes and amazing views! Course layout was very fun. Would come back just for the views. Practice facilities weren't great (driving range was small and closed, a couple of small putting greens and a rundown chipping garea). Starter (Hank) was great. Still winter conditions, with recently aerated greens, but I'd imagine it's absolutely amazing in season when everything is greened up (or fall with the leaves changing). Got a HotDeal, so for less than $50 it was worth the drive and would recommend it if you're in the area.

Difficult, fair, and beautiful

I live in East Tennessee and have played most courses in the east Tennessee and western North Carolina. This is easily my favorite course in the area. The greens are fast and true. There's an advantage to playing here more than once as there are certain spots on the fairway that you want to hit, and spots to avoid. Beautiful doesn't begin to describe the scenery. Majestic would be a better word. I will be back, often!

Could be much better

Pace of play extremely slow. They don't have enough carts. 30 min. delay on tee off time because of the shortage of carts. The carts need to be updated. GPS system works some of cart.
They should build a better club house with better pro-shop, dining area and restrooms with at least two shower room. Their parking lot is so small.
