Good value for the money

Course was in pretty good condition considering the amount of rain we received the day before even through the night. There was some casual water in low areas, but overall pleasantly surprised that carts were allowed to go 90 degrees.

Great value

Course was in excellent condition from the tee boxes, fairways and greens. Everything was very green, the greens were very receptive running a little slow which is typical for bent greens this time of year. Randall Hodge and his family have done an excellent job with this course. The only noticeable negative was the lack of sand in most of the sand traps as we were in three of them. A good layout of holes, especially from the blue tee boxes with the inclusion of some tee boxes we have never played from.

Must Play

One of the best courses in the Nashville area, was in very good condition. Always enjoy playing this course. Played late afternoon as a single and was waved through by three groups before pairing up with a threesome that was being held up by the foursome in front of them which had more than one hole open in front of them. Could have used a ranger, which they usually have, but not this late in the afternoon. Overall a very nice experience.

Not what I expected

Arrived at course, was checked in promptly and given the opportunity to play the back nine first as a single. Tee boxes and fairways were frozen as were greens underneath, along with several bare spots and mounds of dirt in and along several fairways as temperatures had been below freezing for two weeks. Greens appeared to have been aereated recently but rolled good and were fairly quick, considering conditions of 40 degrees temperature and 12 mile per hour wind, would not hold most approach shots as they were frozen underneath. Played very quick as I joined another single to play the front nine and finished the round in just a little over 3 hours.

Fall Fantastic

The course was in great shape despite some recent rainfall a few days before play. Greens, fairways and tee boxes seemed to be over seeded with rye grass. Pace of play was really quick despite several groups playing. A little over 3 and 1/2 hours was nice.

Best cup placements ever

Made reservation on golf now, arrived at course, starter met me in parking lot with cart. Went inside pro shop, checked in, went to first tee and teed off, not many people playing due to earlier rain and cool weather. Played in 3 hours as I was by myself which was nice. The course was in great condition, tee boxes, fairways, greens. The greens were very firm but rolled really well, but held good shots. I would like to compliment the person who set the cups in the greens as they did an excellent job. It was very windy which made it a challenge to play.

Needs some attention

Arrived early to check in and find club house golf shop has been moved to front of building. Hit a few putts and drove up to starter before first tee where we were asked to present receipt and sign and print on clipboard. Questioned starter about course conditions and was informed sand bunkers were in bad shape (mostly dirt with rock in them) and most people were laying out of the sand traps. Was informed we were early for our tee time, but no one was in front of us, so we were allowed to tee off early. Golf course played difficult on long par fours, greens were in good shape and held well, tee boxes and fairways were good, cart paths need some work. Also had a major water leak on hole #11 near tee box and had the remains of a golf cart that had burned to the ground (never saw anything like that before). Overall a good deal thanks to Golf Now, but would not want to pay full price for current conditions.

Challenging layout with wind

Arrived at course about an hour early, was checked in
and met by attendant who provided range balls and directions. Starter came by range and sent me out early because it was a slow day. Course was in great shape from tee box to the green. Also played fast since I was a single (3 hours).

Needs some work

Course is not in the typical Egwani condition. Greens were in great shape but very slow (need mowing), the fairways still not grown in several areas, hole number two playing as par 3 due to drainage work, many cart paths need repaving and some have sections that have been repaved, bunkers need some work and better sand. Have seen some improvements to parking lot, new signage, repaving sections of cart paths, and work being done on the course. New management seems to be spending some money on the course.
However the eighteenth fairway is as plush as I have seen. Enjoy playing this layout.

One of Blount County's best courses

Course was in best shape of the three blount county golf courses played recently. Good to see money being put back into the golf course for improvements.
Always enjoyable to play, beautiful setting in the foot of the mountains.

Worth the price

Had not played this course since 1995-1996, but remembered how well it played and the great condition it was in. Greens are now Bermuda and lots of changes to the landscape. Generous fairways, well kept greens and bunkers along with very good rental clubs (Taylor Made Speed Blade). The speed of the greens seemed a lot slower than they used to be 20 years ago, but held the ball very well. I will play again when in Orlando and recommend to others.

Good value for the price.

Course was in good shape, grass on tee boxes was a little long, greens held good and were in good condition although speed was a little slower than what they were from previous trips. The rough was brutal and made it hard to find your ball. A challenging little layout if you are not hitting the ball straight.

Fun course to play

I have played this course many times over the years and it is always in good condition. The only disappointment was the slower speed of the greens than what I expected and that could have been from playing on Sunday afternoon, but they did hold well and had been watered during the day.

Not a must play

I came from out of town to visit in Nashville area and decided to play a round of golf. Checked golf now, booked $18.00 rate, drove 30 minutes to course. The fairways were as high as most rough on some courses but the greens were not very bad, just a little slow in speed. Had some difficult holes like number 2 with severe slope and par three across water that distance did not seem correct even with GPS. Would be a fun course to play with a lot more attention to detail on mowing.

beautiful layout

The tee boxes and fairways were in great shape, there were some areas in the fairway that were very wet. Greens were in
bad shape due to recent aerification and were difficult to putt because of undulations, but held approach shots well. Overall a very nice place to play.
