Dont let bad reviews scare you.

Honestly, ive avoided Centennial for a while due to way less than glowing reviews from friends/randoms.... what a mistake that was!! I truly enjoyed my round there, despite shooting higher than the ISS in orbit. Beautiful grounds, great layout, fun/challenging greens, great looking clubhouse and restaurant, and picturesque East TN views made this a great round and I am sure to return!

Dog track isn’t adequate

Sand traps full of gravel, greens were not putt able, tee boxes not mowed. To top it off group playing next hole picked our ball up from the middle of our fairway.

Great Course

Play this course a few times a year. Fun course to play, has some challenging holes. Greens still had not recovered completely from being punched. Will play again.

Give it some time.

My biggest pet peeve is when you book a tee time and nobody mentions we just punched, aerated, etc…

Greens aren’t great and found out too late, greens weren't dressed at all so they were rough and bumpy. Give it another 2-3 weeks and they should be good to go. Overall I like this course for it being ran by a City. Spend a little more attention to the small details and it will be great like it used to be. I’ll be back but not for a bit.

Worst Staff

Old guy at the clubhouse was a complete jerk, cursed at me and my group for being there 10 minutes before our tee time because that wasn’t early enough. Would never come back here and wouldn’t waste your money for this terribly kept course

Good value

Greens were in rough shape, but bent greens are tough to keep in shape this time of year. Lots of unfixed ball marks on greens. A couple of tee boxes need some attention. Fairways were great. Course is tough, but rewards good shots. Best “turn dogs” we have had. Definitely worth a trip back.
