45 minutes from downtown Chattanooga and is one of the best courses within an hour of Chattanooga. Course and greens were in great shape and the views are breathtaking. Plus who doesn't like a lake that can be trouble on many holes on the back 9. Lol. Worth the drive and priced well.

A Hidden Gem of a Golf Course! Dogwood Hills is an absolutely beautiful, family-owned golf course that feels like a peaceful retreat. What really sets it apart are the stunning natural ponds scattered throughout the course—you just don’t see that kind of scenery at many other places. The layout is thoughtful and challenging, but not intimidating, making it perfect for both casual and seasoned golfers. The staff are incredibly welcoming and you can really tell it’s a family-run operation—they care about the course and their guests. Everything is well-maintained, from the greens to the clubhou…

Hidden gem? Absolutely. Located out in the country, but really convenient to Chattanooga, Huntsville and Nashville. What an awesome place! From the minute you walk into the clubhouse, you're treated like family. That's because it's a family-run business. Our golf league just recently booked a package at Dogwood Hills for our annual fall golf trip. And not a single negative word was mentioned to me by any of our guys. Everyone is already talking about a return visit. The staff is amazing. When is the last time you stayed at a resort and the owner was helping with the breakfast service? The cour…

Quiet Value with Southern Charm Tucked just 40 minutes from downtown Chattanooga, Dogwood Hills Golf Course offers a laid-back yet rewarding round for those who enjoy classic, no-frills golf with a touch of countryside tranquility. One quick note for travelers — the course runs on Central Time, a small but crucial detail that cost me an unintended two-hour head start. From the first tee, it’s clear Dogwood Hills is cared for by people who love the game. The greens are smooth, quick, and in excellent shape; the fairways are well groomed, offering consistent lies throughout the round. The flee…

I played here on Saturday, October 13, 2024. Great course, great weather, the people that run this place were super cool, I saw a cute little baby crawling on the floor, a sweet little dog that came up to me, and the coolest lil ole lady that was awesome. This place rocks. I hope they read this review, look at my picture, see my name, message me on Facebook, and offer me 25 free rounds of golf plus cart . #JustSaying . True Story ..

Beautiful course, only 1 hr from HSV, AL. Perfect fairways, lots of features: hills, water, sand, trees. Very well-designed course. Great ownership 😁👍 Very reasonable prices for such a great course.

The course was nice, and very scenic . The course was very soft though, when I played. The area got alot of rain the day prior. Great views, good conditions. The staff was friendly and nice. I had a greens keeper pull the pin and give me a read for my birdie putt on a par 3. I would definitely go back to play again.

This course is an absolute gem in Northern Alabama. Played this course on a whim in the first weekend of October as part of a golf trip to Chattanooga. $35 to ride on a Friday with only a $15 replay rate, I'd play here every weekend if I could. The course is in beautiful shape, scenic, rolling hills. Front 9 plays much different than the back 9 thats for sure. We will gladly play this course again if we are back in the area.

Love this course on Sand Mountain in Flat Rock, AL. Of all the courses I've played around the Chattanooga area it's the most challenging one for sure. But it's my favorite since I moved just 10 minutes away. Great staff and new pro JD. Here are some pics with my grandson on #10.

I love this golf course. It's not fancy but the fairways and greens are always in good shape and it's fun to play. Reasonably priced too. They have some cabins for group golf trips. Again, not fancy but functional and priced well.

Me and the kids had a great time together. First time I've ever golfed with all four of my kids. We had a blast and for a bonus We prayed four of my balls that day, that was a first for me also. Hope We do this again soon!!!
