Love this course, great layout, challenging but fair. Staff not really very friendly from the proshop to the grill.

Overpriced

Golf course maintenance has declined considerably. Bunkers are unplayable (no sand, Rocks). Tees and greens are pretty beat-up. With a price point simmilar to Willow Creek and Rarity Pointe near by, I would avoid Avalon.

Good layout and greens are in good shape overall.

All greens but one were in really good shape and held shots well. Fairways were good for this time of year. There are several elevated tee boxes that offered fantastic views of the landscape and I would recommend the course for future play. I will definitely be coming back!

Great course, Staff were friendly and helpfull

Good seperation from diffrent tee boxes. Excelent Fairways and
Bunkers. Had alot of rain night before tee time, good drainage.
The greens were still rolling good even though they were air-
rated, They have nice undulations and you need to hit your
approch shot in the correct area for a good chance at Birdie.
We are looking forward to the next chance we get to play again, And would recomend to anyone to play here.

Not a high end course

Good greens make or break a course. These showed some pretty bad wear in several spots. Driving range is too small and beaten up pretty bad. Putting green is extremely sloped so I didn't feel it would reflect the speed of the greens on the course. Not close enough to clubhouse on the turn that you would stop for anything. Course is laid out nice but it is not up to par with the better courses in this area.

Up, Up and UP....

Avalon is a course located in a large housing development on the west side of Knoxville. It was developed by the Landmark Corporation and bares some similarities to other Landmark properties I have played... mainly in California. This track is really cut into, over and around the Tennessee mountains. It requires more club than the yardage calls for because of a large number of uphill shots. (It reminded me of the stories I heard from my parents about having to walk to school and home...up hill both ways!!) One area of concern is that the bent grass greens were heavily stressed. They need some help. Regardless, if you get a Golf Now hot deal....its worth it!

Overall a great course just needs a little work on greens

Staff is friendly, Grill is great. Some of the greens are pretty rough. Sparce grass. Other than that the rest of the course was in good shape

Wonderful course.

We thoroughly enjoyed our round at Avalon. The course was in great condition, especially the fairways. The rough although only 2-4 in bermuda played extremely tough. Staff were extremely friendly and courteous. Can't wait to play there again!
