Well kept challenging par 3

This is a nice course with tight holes. The greens are better than most full courses in Knoxville. A couple of holes are only~80 yards but they do have a 240 yard hole that you can break out a long iron on.

Best par 3 around!

Great course for skilled or beginner! It has a 245 yard par 3 that will really test your game. The greens are pretty slow so get a feel for them before you start if you're use to faster greens. Very fun course!

The course is not like a typical par 3

The course is always a challenge and different. you can can hit good shots to a green and end up in bad shape. You can hit bad shots and they end up being in good shape. the speed of the greens can change from week to week. In my foursome sometimes we make several birdies, other times we make several bogies.

Slow.................

This was our first time to try the Williams Creek course after hearing good things but.......it was not very true. The facilities are old and run down, the range and range balls need serious help, and the pace of play was awful. Someone needs to teach the staff the there things called tee times and not just tell everyone to go when ready and pair up players when needed. The greens would have been good except for all of the un-repaired ball marks. Note to all golfers, fix your ball marks!!!

Slow Play

Nice course and friendly staff. Five hour pace of play on a par 3 golf course is unacceptable. A foursome had four groups backed up behind them and the staff made no attempt to speed up play. Miserable day.

Tremendous layout

Always a treat to play. The greens may be the best in town and depending on Which tees you play, this course is a great challenge too. From 245 to 110 from the back tees. there is a reason this is ranked one of the top Ten par 3 courses in the country. If you've never played it, this layout, course conditions and beauty will blow you away.

Difficult & Fun

The course plays much tougher than the scorecard yardage sheet leads on. The greens have lots of slopes and are usually very quick.
