Cherokee Valley Course and Club
About
Surrounded by rolling hills, Cherokee Valley Golf Club has a beautiful setting and temperate climate that draws visitors from all over the state. It feels peacefully tucked away but the course is only minutes from downtown Greenville's attractions. The challenging layout features eleven lakes and more than 50 strategically placed bunkers. The dramatic elevation changes provide even more challenges. It is seemingly a very intimidating golf course but the wide fairways and clean rough make it much more forgiving than it looks. The fifth hole is the golf course's signature. There is a beautiful cascading waterfall on this hole as well as a stunning view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Cherokee Valley G.C. is known almost as much for its practice facility as it is for the golf course. The popular, state-of-the-art facility includes a triple-tiered driving range, two putting greens, and a chipping green.

Good shape
The course is in good shape, greens are too. Could be a little faster though.
Great hot deal
I've played the course a few times before so I knew what I was getting into. It's a course that rewards accuracy over raw power. If you take what it will give you you'll have fun. The greens were wonderful, a little fast but they rolled nice and true. Looking forward to my next trip.
Nice course.
This is a challenging course. Opportunitys for birdies on short par 4's. Excellent risk for reward course. Tough greens. Fun but need to play a few times to learn correct clubs on big elevation changes. Beautiful views.
Challenging course worth the Drive
This course meanders through the foothills of the far reaches of Traveler's Rest. Surprisingly excellent warm up area with all the amenities you would expect in a course that hosts the golf digest school.
This is a challenging course for a bogey golfer with excellent views. Although there are some homes along some of the holes, you really feel like you are in the woods versus hitting close to someones backyard. Water comes into play on two of the holes and blind shots occur on two or three holes. Greens were in excellent shape. Staff was friendly and welcoming. A golf cart is required on this hilly, long and challenging course. At the price point its one of the best values in the Greenville area.
Great Course
Cherokee Valley is an awesome course! I'm not a great golfer by any means so, it is a pretty difficult course for my skill level(about a 20 handicap). It is very hilly, which isn't a surprise since its in the mountains. However, that also makes for some awesome views!
Great Course
This course is challenging with it's greens that have a lot of slope to them. As usual, the course was in great condition.
Mountain view gem
Played on golfnow hot deal....worth the $$$. Staff was great....especially the cart guy! Course was tight in spots, big greens, small greens....something for everyone. A lot of elevated greens made it challenging . They have some great stay & play accommodations. Worth the 2 hour drive....
Great day ( minus the soggy conditions), mediocre at best staff treatment
Course was great and in good shape. My only concern was with the ranger. It was a cart path only day and he came to my group as we were heading to #2 advising that it as cart path. We acknowledged him and reminded him we'd just played #1 cart path only. He then came back to us 3 holes later inspecting our carts and made the comment " oh I can tell you really are following the rules because I see your tires are clean". He was being sarcastic and trying to insinuate that we were abiding by the rules. He also told us the the group behind us were former members trying to steal 9 holes of golf. We advised on the turn that the 2some behind us were indeed driving all over the fairway and not even in 90 degree fashion. She schrugged off my concern. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth and the other executives I was playing with at the time.
As always, a nice and beautiful course. Excellent service
Keep doing what you are doing.
Cherokee Valley
First overall in good shape, greens roll exceptionally well , A lot of hills also I lot of scenic views
Best value
Our foursome played this course for $53.96! Then I got $10 off that with my golf now rewards! No better deal anywhere! Big fun, best deal ever!
Amazing golf
I would recommend Cherokee Valley to any golfer. It is a challenging but fair golf course with some of the most beautiful views you'll find in the upstate .The golf course is always in immaculate condition and has all the amenities that a golfer would need in order to enjoy his around of golf.
What A Deal
Great course and the greens were in great shape as always! You can't beat $10 per player including cart! The golfnow hot deal was on fire!
Nice Course for the Money
Course was in very good condition. Pace of play was a little slow but not horrible for a weekend. If you haven't played here before, there are a number of blind tee shots. This can lead to less considerate golfers inadvertently hitting into you. So, recommend being alert and leaving one cart where it can be seen from the tee box. Overall, a great buy for the money!
Great and challenging course
We played as a threesome on Fri morning. Course is very challenging, reminds me of a RTJ layout. Not a flat spot on course (fairways or greens), so bring your A game. The blue tees played about 6,100 yds. This is now my favorite course in Greenville/Spartanburg area with Clemson's Walker course as close second.
threesome
It was a very hot day. Weather had been very dry. The courrse is in great shape. ...good watering. A challenging course . ...will definitely return.
Great day of golf!
Nice golf course n very good condition! Greens are in excellent shape!
Great course
This is a beautiful course look forward to playing again. Just got behind some young guys with their kids playing really slow, not really the course issue just poor sportsmanship.
