Just a great overall course
Everything is great about this course. Great layout, great fairways, greens are typically slower here but they’re in great condition. Best layout around.
Great layout, poor maintenance
I have been playing this course since it opened and love the layout. Unfortunately the new owners don’t seem to want to put the effort in to keep the maintenance up. We play there at least once a month and have seen a steady decline in the conditions since the change in ownership, Cups don’t get moved, we play on Monday’s and it is very obvious the cup hasn’t been moved in several days. Tee boxes are shaggy, as are the fairways and greens, you can lose your ball in the first cut of rough and forget finding it in the jungle called the second cut. Grass bunkers are impossible because of the lack of cutting and sand bunkers need to just be removed since there’s not enough sand in them to play from (sand traps on this course have always been an issue, primarily because of poor initial design and build so that is more on the designer and not the greens keeper).
I love the course and wish it were in decent shape. But it is not, and I personally will not be back until the maintenance improves dramatically.
Great layout with the greens and fairways very nice. The course needs to be cleaned up around the greens and tees. The bunkers are in really bad shape and need attention.
Great views-crazy rough
Really enjoyed this course playing as a tourist from FL. Beautiful views as most holes run along a river with bluffs. Greens not quite recovered from aeration and were slow but rolled fairly true. The rough just off the fairway was fair but if you get 4-5 ft out of the fairway it’s a lost ball. Hit three brand new balls that hit in fairway or in the first cut that should have been less than a foot in the high stuff that I never found. That was most disappointing. Didn’t understand the logic there. Small bucket of range balls were a fair $5. Everyone friendly. Does not go back to clubhouse after nine but has a good food truck at the turn where you can also get beverages. Bring a small cooler though because they give out the non-effective plastic bag and little ice with it. About an hr drive from gatlinberg. But near a brand new Bucees. Overall a great time and would recommend.
Great course
The course is getting better and better. They let me know that aeration had taken place so greens weren't the best. Wish there would have been a little discount due to that.
Best course in the area
Loved the terrain. River and mountains. No homes (maybe one). Every hole was different and scenic.
Course was in very good condition. Pace if play was great.
We also played Gatlinburg GC and Sevierville GC. All were nice, but this was a very enjoyable course.
Fantastic experience
Outstanding golf experience. Not resort pristine—better. Very well maintained, scenic. Great layout. No two holes alike. Played early, no wait.
Also played Gatlinburg GC and Sevierville. Island Pointe should be your first choice.
First Timer
First time playing Island Pointe and the scenery lived up to the hype. The course is nestled on the river making for a handful of narrow, challenging holes. Got in and out in ~4.5 hours. Well maintained greens and everyone we spoke to was friendly!
Pretty but difficult
Love the beautiful scenery and the conditions. It is tougher than I am good though.
I have not played in this area before. I chose this based on the reviews. Glad I did. Very nice / fair layout greens were awesome. Fairways a bit shaggy although we’re nice. Took longer to play due to catching the awesome views. Will definitely play again.
Great course
Loved this course. It was very challenging and very beautiful. Greens were excellent but as with bermuda hard to read. Would definitely play again the next time im in the area
Great course
Great course for the money. Very challenging and beautiful. Would recommend this course to everyone. Very challenging and lots of fun.
Tennessee Gem
Course was in excellent condition and the customer service great & friendly.
Course design is awesome. ,
Favorite Course
This is my favorite course to play in East TN.
Layout is great, and the greens and fairways are perfect.
