Great Layout and Good Conditioning

I have played Lambert one time earlier this season and it was just as enjoyable as this time. The greens are in good condition, fairways are nice, and the layout of the orange course is really pleasing to the eye. The white and red have a good layout as well but for me the orange-9 is beautiful. The pace of play never was an issue for both of my outings as we got there early and only began to run into golfers lacking etiquette later on toward the end of our play on the red. This course is welcoming to all golfers and allows folks to wear whatever apparel they are comfortable in, but it does appear that may attract some folks without proper understanding of what is appropriate behavior on the course. We had 2 instances of people playing from our fairway that were not concerned with our groups shots. It was minor but does create some frustration when etiquette isn't utilized. I love the layout, staff is friendly, and the course is not overly difficult but will challenge the golfer that gets off line.

Good course, bad fellow golfers

I enjoy playing Lambert Acres, and if you can hit the ball straight off the tee you have a shot at putting up some low numbers. The course was in great shape especially the greens. The biggest problem with the course is the people that play there. We played 18 holes and it took nearly 5 hours and on top of that there were three groups we encountered several times throughout the day that were loud and rude. Two of the groups had women in them that constantly yelled WOOOOOOOO!!!! at the top of their lungs. Unfortunately this isn't the first time I have encountered this problem there. The rangers really need to say something yet they do not. So in closing this course is nice and a good value however if golf etiquette is important to you it would be best if you skipped this track.

A few issues

This is my first time playing this course and I have a really mixed opinion of it. I usually play every Saturday, and have played the majority of the public and private courses surrounding Knoxville. My playing partner and I usually play the back tees and each carry a 7 handicap. With that in mind, we teed off before 7a and a ranger came to us on hole 6, told us we needed to pick up our pace, and proceeded to drive around the edge of the green looking for golf balls in water. We actually had to wait for him to get out of the way before hitting our approach shot!!! Nonetheless, we made the turn at 1hr 38 min. At the clubhouse we were directed to the red course because "we were running behind" on our round time and a group just went off on the white course. We got behind a group on the red course that we had to wait for, and it took us over 3 hours to play it. I actually like to read my putts and try to score, but felt very rushed on the front despite no one ever having to wait for us. Closest group was a full hole back. The course was in really good shape, and the price was reasonable to good, however, due to the above issues, we won't be returning.

A Rainy Round

First time I've played this course in many years. I will be back. From tees to fairways to greens, the course is in excellent condition. It handled the rain well. Challenging yet forgiving to the average golfer. A pleasure to play!

very scenic

With the backdrop as the scenic Smoky Mountains, you can't go wrong with beauty. The course is also landscaped very nicely. Fairways and greens are in great shape.

The ranger could be friendlier. May be an occupational hazard . We were rained out on the second 9. When I went in for the raincheck, the young lady at the register produced two receipts for $10 to serve as a raincheck that was seemingly unrelated to anything. The lady in front of me got a post it not for a raincheck. This can be improved.

The pace of play was too fast in my opinion. We did 9 holes in about 1.5 hours. It's hard to enjoy the beauty this course really has at that pace. Maybe everyone was rushing because of the impending thunderstorms.

We will return to the course without question.

Great value

The staff was very friendly at check in, and we were given our choice of which two of the three nines to play. We chose the red and orange courses. The course was in very nice condition. The greens were true and green. There were a few areas that were under repair (being resodded), but those areas were clearly marked. The only two improvements I would suggest are these. On several holes the cart path ended at forward tees and started back near green. The other is just a personal preference, but the yardage in marks were only marked on cart path (where there was one). Overall, our experience was great. This course is an outstanding value, and I'm looking forward to playing there again!

Great Golf And Value

Lambert Acres is one of my favorites in the Knoxville area. The fairways were in great shape and the greens were medium fast and rolled true. There is a variety of holes, from short par 4's to long par threes. The staff is always accommodating and appreciative of your business. For the money, you can't beat it. If you are in the area, go play Lambert Acres.

27 hole golf course

I made a tee time via GolfNow.com. I called to see if we could get on earlier than the tee time that we booked and was informed that they do not take tee times and that we could come out anytime which we did. Staff was very friendly and got us on as soon as we arrived. The course is rather open with few hazards and rolling fairways. There are some parallel fairways. The greens were in good shape and great putting surface.
