Knoxville Municipal

Mostly good some greens in need of attention as far as ball marks, just recovering from severre storm that took down some treees so staff is probably busy with that.

It is what it is.

The city of Knoxville needs to put some money into the course for cart path improvements. The employees were extremely nice and course is in need of some repair. The cost was a great deal for a holiday rate. For my level of skill course was good but I remember when course was in much better shape and condition.

A very friendly municipal course - great value!

Every attempt is being made to keep this jewel owned by the City of Knoxville available and up to snuff. There is some work to be done (show me a course that doesn't - I probably couldn't afford to play there), but they are in there pitching! Many great holes, many different looks. We had about a 45 minute wait in the clubhouse while a storm passed through and it was downright pleasant! The course drained well after a good downpour and there was no confusion about who was on which hole when we started back. If you're looking for a good place to play with no pretentiousness, this is it!

Needs maintenance

Fairways and cart trails were terrible. Pitting and ground under repair everywhere in fairways. Had to drive at 1/4 speed because of lumpiness of fairways. Cart paths in dangerous shape. Greens in reasonable shape and tricky/challenging. For first time player, pay the dollar for the course yardage book...cartoons on scorecard were useless and
misleading.

The course has character

Greens were in good shape, rolled well. The layout is interesting, tree lined fairways make it challenging. The staff is great. Cart paths were quite rough however. Hole # 3, make sure your drive is not right of center or it will roll in the trees or creek.

Disappointed

I have played Knox Muni many times over the years. This was by far the worst condition the course has been in. The tee boxes were horrible. The cart paths are in bad need of repair. As usual the staff was very friendly but the golf course was bad.

Poor cart paths

This course demands good tee shots or you will be playing from the trees on several narrow fairways. Very short and easy par 3's especially since there are no bunkers on the entire course. The cart paths are in very bad shape. Overall the course conditions are below average. Other than mowing, the entire course seems to be in a state of neglect. There is no driving range. The entire staff however were very helpful and friendly. There are many better choices in the Knoxville area in this price range. This course is not recommended.

Knoxville golf club

The staff was very helpful and considerate. They were very helpful with directions around the course. The deli was clean and the food was good. The course is playable but would be much better if the fairways were over seeded for the winter.

Was not expecting much with all of the rain the prior day, but was surprised at the good drainage. There were 2 holes they are working on the tee box. Greens are in great shape! Super friendly staff!

Rough Track

I guess you get what you pay for here. Course is in very rough shape in regard to both the esthetics and terrain.

About 8 holes that are basically the same set-up from tee to green I thought. Greens were bumpy, cart paths (where there were any) were bumpier and the maintenance staff seemed unaware of the patrons while they cut grass, etc.

Fun course if you've got nowhere to be and about 12 cold beer (per golfer).

Good for about $10 less

No bunkers anywhere on the course, several areas that always seem to be extremely wet (including the lay up area on the par 5 hole 9), and tee boxes are generally in disrepair. The greens are very well maintained and there are some fun/challenging holes, but for $30 I would much rather play Centennial in Oak Ridge. If you are looking for the cheap/easy course, you would be better off playing at Whittle Springs for $22.

Easy access from Knoxville area.

This course provides moderate difficulty for all levels of handicappers depending on the tee boxes. There are some bare spots here and there that require patch works. Still reasonable compared to its price and location.

This course needs management.

The course was holding a tournament on the day I played. This was not mentioned when booking the tee time. When I arrived there were 4 foursomes lined up on the first tee. Needless to say, I didn't tee off for at least 30 minutes after my scheduled tee time. The play was extremely slow all day.

If you are going to have a tournament, don't post tee times on GolfNow as if you actually have room!!!

The course has been going thru renovation for at least 3 years but never seems to finish. Mounds of earth on several holes.

Under Construction

This course looks good, but the whole course is under construction the cart paths are very poor. The last 2 times I have been they don't have enough carts for everyone. I booked my tee time 3 days early for 11am. When I got there we had to wait till 12:30pm just to get a cart. The staff is friendly but they have poor managing skills. Our cart died on the 17th hole and we had to push it all the way back to the club house. Don't go here. There is heavy machinery (i.e. dump trucks and dossers) on the 9th fairway. When I complained they were very quick to give me a free tee time, however, they still charge 32.50 per player to play in these horrible conditions!
