Beautiful course. Well maintained. The GPS on carts will help 1st timers with all the sharp doglegs and blind tee shots. Be ready for some 3 putts on fast, undulating greens. Best public course around. Definitely worth the drive from Chattanooga Dalton or surrounding areas.

Golf course is decent , The pro-shop staff horrible , tried to make a tee time online it would not let me for 1 person called the pro-shop to make the tee time the man on the phone was made because he had to do it getting a attitude the whole time on the phone , that's why this place has gotten the nickname snob-north instead of nob-north , change the personalities in the pro-shop this alone will make this golf course a lot better .

The course layout is great, but the drainage system is extremely poor. I understand it rained about a week ago, but the ground should have dried out in four days. Instead, it felt like we were playing in mud.
