Cherokee Valley Course and Club
About
Surrounded by rolling hills, Cherokee Valley Golf Club has a beautiful setting and temperate climate that draws visitors from all over the state. It feels peacefully tucked away but the course is only minutes from downtown Greenville's attractions. The challenging layout features eleven lakes and more than 50 strategically placed bunkers. The dramatic elevation changes provide even more challenges. It is seemingly a very intimidating golf course but the wide fairways and clean rough make it much more forgiving than it looks. The fifth hole is the golf course's signature. There is a beautiful cascading waterfall on this hole as well as a stunning view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Cherokee Valley G.C. is known almost as much for its practice facility as it is for the golf course. The popular, state-of-the-art facility includes a triple-tiered driving range, two putting greens, and a chipping green.

Good course
Pace of play was great, green is fast, couple holes with blink spots. It would be nice to let people know not to hit a long club.
A beautiful mountain course!
I enjoyed this course very much. It offered beautiful scenery, surprising holes with bllind shots, and especially true, fast greens.
The layout was good with every hole offering something different.
I would recommend the course to anyone in the area and plan to visit again when I return.
Thanks
Nice layout, good conditions, staff even let us set up our telescope to view the solar eclipse! Thanks!
What a fantastic and fun track
Some tight fairways. Many hills and elevation changes - some pretty dramatic. True rolling hard and fast greens with many undulations and levels.
Challenging up hill mountain course with great views.
Enjoyed our round but it was a challenging course that seemed to be all up hill. Greens are fast and unforgiving so put it close. Great value and we will be back.
Don't pass up this course.
A great course to have a challenging and fun day with friends. A must play.
Good conditions, fun course, but NEEDS A RANGER!
This is without a doubt one of my favorite courses in the area. I gladly make the 45 minute drive if the price is right. Fairways and tees were in good condition, and the greens were in excellent shape. I heard some rumblings of new ownership, and I hope that doesn't shake things up too much. My only complaint is that there was not a ranger to keep up the pace of play. EXTREMELY slow foursome a few groups ahead made for about a 5-hour round.
Hi covers05 thank you for the feedback. We did come under new ownership this year and we are making many adjustments to improve our pace of play. The course is in excellent shape, come out and play again soon!
Great setting
Challenging course with numerous elevation changes. Pace of play can be a struggle at times but the views of the mountains partially make up for that.
Pro shop staff member seemed to be having a rough day of wax just tired. I always give the benefit of the doubt but still, c'mon. Greens were fast and hard. Overall pretty good shape.
Hi u000001736007 thank you for the feedback. We are taking many measures to ensure our pace of play improves as well as golf shop staff friendliness. I hope that you'll come out and play, our course is in great shape.
A great way to spend a Sunday with my friends
Course was great greens were fast and we all had a great time . I just need to work on my game Lol.
A have to play if you like a challenge
This is a mountain course that has its challenges. You'll use ever club in your bag and wish you had more. Not for the beginner, although they would love the scenery. Low handicappers will love this course. Mid handicappers may struggle a bit, but should still have a good time.
Excellent!
Great condition and excellent value! Greens were SUPER fast but true and all in great shape. I will definitely be back soon!
Good course
Course in good shape for this time of the year, had quite a bit of play on the day, only negative was greens didn't seem to have been mowed that morning and they had some trash on them and that makes the grain in the grass a lot harder to deal with, but it is understandable for the greens not to be mown this time of the year.
Great layout and views
Even though there were many blind shots every hole was fun to play. Very hilly with multi tiered greens. Greens were in good shape for off season.
Definitely will play again.
Greens were ok but that's it.
No grass in fairway no sand in bunkers. We paid to play 18 but we left after just 9 holes course was in terrible shape. Very disappointed after we read the good reviews online they were very misleading. Not worth the hour and a half drive. Will not be back
Hi TuskedLlama, I am sorry to hear about your experience, we appreciate the feedback. We have been very intentional with our improvements to the golf course. Our course is in excellent shape and we would love for you to come out and give us another chance.
Great greens
First time playing this course. I had to rate the course conditions as average mostly due to the lack of rain and the tee boxes could use a little leveling. The best part about this course are the greens, the are in great shape and quite diabolical. You better bring your A game with the putter!
Hi fkamphey, thank you for the feedback. I apologize for your negative experience. We have a course conditions focus and are making many improvements to our facility. Come out and see all of our changes!
