Very unique course in north TN mountains

Course is very unique and in the north Tennessee mountains. Some of the views are stunning and for the views alone and several of the water holes on the front 9 worth a visit. However, the conditions are suffering in several areas: several of the back tees have been abandoned (and have for some time) and they appear to be aggressively de-bunkering or not maintaining their bunkers.

Very Scenic Course

Really nice course with lots of elevation change. First time ever playing it and as a twosome never had to wait and completed the round in 3 hours 15 minutes. Greens were in nice condition.

Nice course, Friendly staff.

This course is a nice but tough layout. The first time playing you have to know where to place your shot off the tee. The buck 9 is considerably tougher than the front. Hole #3 is a beast. Takes a well placed tee shot over water with less than driver and a forced carry second shot over the water. This is a position course that you have to play more than once to Score very well. Some easy par 5’s help. Derrick was working the pro shop and bar and is a great guy.

Over booked

If you don't mind playing with 6to8 players on a hole this course is for you. Deerfield overbooked. Shame on you.

The pace of play was terrible as they have no Ranger. Fairways were hard like the middle of summer. fairways were cut too close and greens had no consistency.

Very Pleasurable Round!

Course is in great shape. Even after a steady rain from the day before not swampy or muddy. Greens are awesome and fairways not far behind.Will definitely play here again!!

Nice course

Course was in pretty good shape considering it being mid February and the over abundance of rain. No sand in traps. Very hilly terrain. Course presents lots of uneven stances, even in the fairway. Several hole have pretty tight fairways and landing areas. Challenging but fun for a the average golfer.

Incentivized Review

Come-in round the mountain course

Too many side hill/side slope fairways to really be considered a good layout. Half fairways require a tee shot that misses to hill side and ball will roll off into fairway. Actually hit four fairways dead center and ball rolled off side of fairway out of play. Tee boxes needed mowing, as well as greens. Unfortunately hole five, guy actually came out and mowed green. Which increased green speed by 75% so putts previously coming up 5-6 ft short now rolled 10-12 ft past hole. Then four holes later greens were unmowed and shaggy again. Other than length, greens were decent bent grass with big patches of poana. None of bunkers were raked but they all had sand. Played on hot deals rate, - $20. It is not worth $40 normal rate. Quite a ways from Knoxville but probably worth drive if you get discount tee time and like playing different and unusual courses. There were several scenic views of Norris Lake from elevated fairways and tee boxes.
