Voted best course in the area and we are host to several collegiate, women's, men's and juniors' events.

What Is The Signature, Most Talked About, or Most Photographed Hole?
Number 13 River Course a par 3 with a vertical drop of 200' and the most awesome view of the smoky mountains anywhere.

What Is Your Favorite Hole? Any Tips to Play It?
Number 3 River Course a par 5 is the first of three island holes. The tee shot is very demanding with the river on the left and bunker and tall rough on right. Your second shot requires a decision, the river crosses the fairway and you must carry your second shot about 235Y and then another 30y to the green. Then the green is elevated with a hazard around both sides and back. Should I layup or "go for it"? If you are playing for score I recommend using something off the tee that you know will hit the fairway and then layup as close to the river as possible to make the third shot easy as possible. You do not want to miss the green!

Must Have Dish or Drink after the round at the 19th Hole?
Absolutely, we have the best view, food and beverage in the Smokies.
