Patriot Hills Golf Club

The course is nice and usually plays pretty well. However, the few times I have gone it gets pretty backed up. They do not seem to care about pace of play at all. I have had a couple of rounds that took 5 hours or more. There is no ranger that is keeping up pace or a starter sending people off

Very nice course. Even in September the fairways still had good grass. Challenging par 3’s from the White Tees. #13 and #15 more than 170 yds and the wind was kicking the day we played. Plenty of scoring opportunities though because the course has 6 par fives and 6 par threes. Beautiful views of the Great Smokey Mtns. In the distance you could see the Nantahala Forest which separates TN from NC. Hope to get to play this course again next year.

I'm from WV, wife let me get 1 round in on vacay and I chose Patriot Hills after alot of research. Glad they had a range but BEWARE!! It's only about 225-230 and they do not allow drivers on the range, so no driver warm ups. That's where the negatives stop!! I got paired with 3 locals who were VERY COOL, they helped me out with course management and aim points on blind shots. The fairways were beautiful, carpet like. The greens were challenging to figure out, started out slow and wet, but when they dried, very quick and true. The back 9 looked to have been punched not so long ago but still rolled really well so it was a non factor really. The staff was great. We were stroke playing and had guys who were scrambling behind us, if you golf you know , 1 group scrambling is gonna play fast, we were on a 2 hour per 9 pace and they kept calling the clubhouse on us, ranger came by and told us but also said our pace of play was fine, he understood and just keep playing our game, he just wanted to be seen talking to us so they would back off. Very cool move. The conditions put almost all my courses back home to shame and it was even cheaper than any of em!!! I
