    I played at Lake Junaluska Golf Course while visiting from out of state and had one of the most…read moreunnecessarily uncomfortable golf experiences I've had. We booked a last-minute tee time and only brought one golf bag for two players because we did not understand the course policy requiring separate bags. As soon as staff raised the issue, we immediately offered to rent clubs or delay our tee time if needed. Instead, the course employees themselves decided to let us play the front 9 and then decide whether to retrieve another bag before continuing. That should have ended the issue completely. Instead, we were approached again during the round and effectively hassled over a situation that staff had already approved. The marshal then explained that the reason was because there was a board member playing behind us who was complaining. That is incredibly unprofessional. If management or board members disagree with a decision, that should be handled internally between staff -- not by repeatedly confronting paying customers after an arrangement was already approved by the course itself. Don't put players in the middle of your internal politics and communication failures. The most frustrating part is we were cooperative from the beginning and willing to fix the situation however they wanted. If the course had simply delayed the tee time for a few minutes so we could handle it "correctly," that would have been far more professional than interrupting us multiple times during the round over a decision their own employees made. Beautiful scenery, but the customer service and professionalism were disappointing enough that I would not return.

    The course is advertised as easy and open. While the course isn't as long as some others, it more…read morethan makes up for it with blind tee shots, narrow fairways, dramatic elevation changes, and some very challenging, uneven greens. Beautiful scenery but if you are beginner, it can be challenging.

    I will start by saying I am bias when it comes to this course not only is it a beautiful mountain…read morecourse it is where I scored my first "Hole In One". I will get the bragging out of the way Hole #8 149 Yards - 8 Iron was the weapon of choice I must admit it wasn't a beautiful shot but effective. I actually topped the ball slightly a quick trip to the front side of the green a few bounces 1 - 2 - 3 in the hole. This would be a memorable course without the above mentioned. The course provides everything you want in a mountain course plenty of elevation changes of course a very scenic back scape and a lots of challenges.You would be well advised to manage the course don't let the wide open feeling fool you there are some tight fairways that are very deceiving so pick your shots carefully and enjoy a great venue. The staff is extremely friending and outgoing, The pro shop is adequate and the cocktails are poured generously in the club house. You know I will be back and I can assure you this experience won't disappoint you.

    I think for the cost to play there are better options. There were to many blind shots for my…read moretaste. A few holes have blind tee shots with severely sloped fairways that you would have had to of played it before in order to have a chance. It was in fair condition for mid June but the grass in some green side areas was so long that you could lose your ball. Playing it out if you found it was nearly impossible. I wouldn't play it again for 50% of what I paid.

    I was in the Asheville area on vacation and someone recommended this golf course. I was super happy…read morewith it! And I'm pretty picky with my golf clubs so I think that says something?! The front nine is relatively flat and is in the "valley" but then the back line goes up and down the mountain a bit. The holes are a little wonky sometimes but are usually very fair. The greens on the back nine can get a little crazy , it helps to play with someone that has played the course before. When I played the course, it was in pretty good condition. Comparatively speaking it's in much better condition than the other public tracks in the area that I have played. There were a few brown spots on the fairway, but nothing major. The greens rolled very true. My only real complaint was that the expectation of how fast you should play is pretty unrealistic... I think they have teetimes every 10 minutes and there's a lot of older golfers. There's also a lot of groups that have both males and females in them... None of this is a bad thing, but it slows the round down because people are teeing off and different places. There's also a couple holes that are cartpath only that really Can slow down your round. The price felt a little high, but it was in much better condition than courses that were only a little bit cheaper and so I'll take the higher price and the better conditions any day There wasn't a lot of water on the course... And buy that what I mean is jugs of water to drink... So it's not a bad idea to grab a water bottle in the clubhouse for you come out. The only other thing of node is that the driving range is nowhere near the clubhouse. I got lost taking my golf cart there! Twice! And longer hitters won't be able to use driver on the range. Beautiful course. Wonderful round. Worth the drive. Beautiful views!

    We stayed at the Maggie Valley Resort & Clubhouse for two nights on recommendation from our family…read more We arrived after spending a week in a cabin sharing with 4 other people, so we were really pleased with this place. We didn't use the amenities, but at check-in, it was made clear that we could use the pool, schedule golfing, and that the restaurant at the club was fantastic. Our favorite parts were the views, how homey the condo was, and the proximity to places we wanted to go. It isn't far from Biltmore Estate, Waynesville, downtown Asheville, or the Blue Ridge Parkway. There are local restaurants around, some shops, and grocery stores nearby. The complex was also very quiet. I would highly recommend staying here for any trip.
