A Complete Guide to Maggie Valley Golf Club & Resort
Maggie Valley Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 championship course set between the Blue Ridge and Great Smoky Mountains near Waynesville, NC. At 6,500 yards with bentgrass greens and Bermuda fairways, it plays well for a wide range of skill levels and stays open year-round.
The Course
The front nine runs through rolling valley terrain with water features. The back nine shifts to true mountain golf — elevation changes, tighter lines, and views that open up across the surrounding ridges. The back nine is the more memorable half.
