I'm a beginner golfer, I've only played a handful of courses, but this was my favorite course I ever played by far. Very well kept grass, the greens were all nice and smooth, the fairways were all consistent, everything was really nice. Customer service was actually pretty good, they got food at the pro shop, have a nice driving range, and the location was beautiful, some places you can see off the mountain for a long ways as you're approaching the green. I will definitely be revisiting quite often.

The staff member at the front desk during check-in wasn’t very friendly, but the other two guys more than made up for it. The fairways were in great shape; however, the greens were covered with poa annua weeds. As a result, the greens were very bumpy, and any putts over eight feet were essentially unmakeable. It will likely be at least mid-June before the greens are back in good condition.

Rude staff. Recently moved to Guntersville and have been trying out courses. We will never return to this place. Older man behind counter is inexcusably hostile. Staff members r stalking the groups and rushing u as u play. Insane. There r several courses within minutes of this place with much better views and greens and whose staff is polite. Please find another place to play.

It's our tradition to play golf on Thanksgiving when my sons come in from out of state, they weren't real busy but they still wouldn't let us play 5, so we split 3 and 2, but the Marshall followed us around sneaking up on us questioned us at least 3 times. I've never been treated so rudely at any course I've played and it started from the minute we walked in, staff were very unfriendly, and all need customer service training. Probably want play there again.

22 just to ride a golf cart for nine holes. We weren’t even playing and the cart we got didn’t even have a score card on it so we couldn’t even keep the score of the person that was playing. I don’t know what was going on with the staff that day but the only person that wasn’t rude to us was the gentleman that collected our cart after we were done.

Fantastic course and in excellent condition! The best course I've had the experience to play. This is my favorite course as of now, being from Oklahoma and playing courses in Colorado, Texas, and Louisiana. As a plus, the views are beautiful at each hole of the course. Overall, I'd recommend this course to anyone wanting to play a fun yet challenging, well maintained course with wonderful scenery.

I was hoping for stellar views but the trees keep you focused on the course. No beer cart. Decent course at a great price. Book online.

Beautiful course, but they over booked and it took 3 hours to play the front 9. When I asked about getting a rain check for back 9 I was told they will only do that for weather. Normally I don’t mind but it does not take 3 hours to play 9 holes. If you have a tournament going on, which they did, you need to inform players of that so they can arrange to play later or go to another golf course entirely. Great course, but poorly run with terrible customer service.

Course is great but staff is unreasonable and rude. Just not customer friendly especially for inexperienced players. Management and Marshall's try to run like a PGA course....it is not that good. Course rules are very inflexible regardless of circumstances....they just do not care.

The course all around looked great. But they charge each person for a cart fee even if you are riding together. We also got accused of driving on the tee boxes which we weren't doing and afterwards get followed and watched like a hawk by one of the workers for the next 3 holes. Will not be returning.

I've played here a few times and it's a great course! If you are used to paying club prices, you will be overjoyed at the prices here. The course has a good number of hills and some great scenic views while staying wide open enough that it's tough to lose a lot of balls. The greens are in great shape and the hazards are forgiving.

Best views I’ve ever seen while playing golf! Reasonable greens fees and the grass is in great condition. Their fleet of golf carts could use an upgrade though...
