Avalon soars

Played this course 2 years ago- greens were so bad we were given a pass for a free round. Played today- excellent course condition, great staff and had a beer in the cozy lounge. Only negative- 3 holes border on the interstate- quite a bit of highway noise

First Time Playing

Great Track

Had a blast playing this tough, but fair course. Played in the hills, in valleys, 17 and 18 are fantastic finishing holes over water that reward risk and crush you if don’t hit the right shot. Great time overall. Pin placement today was very tough and forced good shots or chips to even have a chance at birdie/par. I saw a beverage cart at least 5 times and even the rangers carry water. Great conversation with starters and staff mage for an enjoyable experience. The only thing that took away from the round was Cart 32 It would benefit from some TLC and maybe a suspension change and brakes checked. It was an I treating ride to be sure. Other than the cart having a mind of it own sometimes. No complaints at all. I will definitely play here again when I come back to town!!

Avalon

Avalon has always had issues with greens dying, bunkers, and uneven tees.

Bunkers now have sand as well as rocks so bring your practice wedges. Tee boxes now have grass on them and offer uneven lies. The greens have elevated from dead grass to zoysia which is great for fairways. I have played Avalon since it opened and always hoped the golf course design would match golf course conditions.

Greens were bad.

Tee to green was not bad. The greens were terrible. They had aerated them about a month ago and they are keeping the grass high which makes putting very difficult. A couple of greens had unplayable areas in them. Lots of courses around Knoxville are a much better value.

Avalon has had a difficult history

Been playing here sporadically since 1990s. Greens issues, tee area issues, and unplayable bunkers have been areas of concern . New ownership has taken these on. Tees still uneven but more grass than in the past. Bunkers were in the past a disgrace now playable if you don't mind dinging your wedges with rocks. The new zoysia greens are something else. They are playing as a normal courses fringe areas.

Staff an A+, practice tee a B pace of play B.
