Awesome par 3 course

The course was not what I expected at all it was more, I will definitely play more at this course. If you are seeking a challenge with your iron game this is the place for you as the holes only allow iron play you'll never uncover a driver, 3 wood, or even a hybrid lol you may want to hit the range with them so they don't feel neglected lol over all very nice staff and course., even had some first tee kids watching us tee off at #10 we hit and they clapped lol thought that was neat

Course was great, instructor even better

We lost a hat on the course and one of the instructors (Alex) tracked us down to return it. He then followed that up with some helpful tips to improve our game. We’ve never had a course go out of their way to make our experience so good. The course was a lot of fun, in great condition and Alex deserves a raise because he was awesome.

Great as always

This course has become one of my go to courses in Knoxville. Love it! Dad was in from out of town, and we played it in the morning. Fun times! Good pace.

Beware....you better be an accurate hitter or else you’re losing some balls. But, if you’re accurate, it makes for a really enjoyable course.

The Little Par 3 That Could

WARNING - do not underestimate this par 3 course.

It will eat your lunch and then go back for seconds. Designed by Tom Fazzio, so you should expect the wonderfully undulating greens and being rewarded for attacking the pin. As I was told before the round in the club house, “long is wrong”. Play aggressive, bring extra balls, and do not look at this course as a typical fun little par 3. It is absolutely a serious golf course that will chew you up and spit you out. It is humiliating and fun all at the same time. 8/10. I would absolutely play it again.

A gem in Knoxville

My wife and I consider Williams Creek a great place to play 9 or 18 holes. Even though it is a par-3 course, the terrain makes each hole a challenge. The greens are difficult and the overall scenery is lovely. It’s well worth the time and effort to find it and play.

Great Day With The Wife

Since I was off and was going to ve on that side of town I decided to play a ground. I got the last 1:00 tee time which was perfect because I was unsure of what time I'd be done with my previous commitment. And the best part was that my wife came to drive me around the my round. I got there early enough to hit the driving range and to let her hit a couple of balls. Which my round started I saw the time on the driving range pay off early. I was driving it further than usual and even straighter. The use only ONE ball through the until I got to the 8th hole which has NEVER happened, got a par on 5th and the ICING on the cake birded the 9th!!! Overall a GREAT round and the best part was spending the day with my wife!!!

Very nice and challenging

I played this course 7 or 8 years ago and it was in great shape. Nothing has changed. This is the best par 3 course that I have ever played. I haven't played a ton of these courses but I have played my share. Very nice greens and excellent layout. A very good challenge for anybody working on their short game.
