Hidden Gem

I've been playing in the Knoxville area for several years now, and have only recently heard of Ruggles Ferry. Played this weekend with a group of friends and absolutely loved it. I was not expecting such good conditions for the price. The tee boxes were actually flat and had great grass. The greens were also in remarkable shape. It's also pretty open, so even if you don't hit a perfect tee shot, you still have a decent shot at the green on most holes. This is my new favorite course in the area. Will absolutely be back.

Poor staff and poor conditions

I normally try to avoid this course but was playing with a group this weekend and we decided to play here since it was close to all of us and a few of us were using our new East TN Golf Card. I have probably played this course five times over the last few years and this will be the last time I play here. Every single time, I have felt unwelcomed by the staff. They never seem happy to be there. I will say the woman running the concessions this weekend was friendly and welcoming, but that was the only exception.

The course is also in dire need of water. Weeds everywhere and the fairways are thin. The greens were also covered in samaras (helicopter leaves) and sand. The greens were dreadful. Several were unputtable. This course keeps going downhill more and more by the year, and it's just about unplayable at this point. Unfortunately, it is a city course so I doubt much will be done.

Wonderful Course

This was my first time playing this course and it was a great experience. I have never experienced such a friendly and welcoming staff. It was a busy Saturday and they handled it very well. The course was in great condition and the views were great. Several holes were challenging but I felt it was well balanced. Great day all around. Will definitely be back!

Phenomenal Course

First time playing and I really enjoyed this course. Carts are quite nice and come with a GPS screen which comes in handy for several tough shots. Fairways and tee boxes were in great shape for this time of year. Greens were in amazing shape but incredibly fast. Easily the fastest greens I’ve played in this area. Can’t wait to come back though. Will probably be one of my new favorite courses.

Course that Cares

I read great reviews about this course, so I decided to drive up to Townsend and check it out. It was a beautiful course tucked away in the mountains. The clubhouse and amenities were really nice. The guy at the front desk was very friendly and directed me to the tee boxes. It’s a mountain course so there are many elevation changes within the course, but the fairways were decently wide. What stood out to me were the little things that I could see the staff wanting to get right. There’s a fairly new and clean ball wash station at every hole with a nice sign and stone slab. Even the trash cans and bathrooms around the course were fresh and clean. You could tell the staff cares and is working to keep this a top notch course. There were a lot of leaves on the course which was frustrating, but a friendly grounds crew member said they were getting a heavy duty blower to take care of those next week. I can’t wait to come back in the spring and play again.

Deceptively Challenging

Fairways were fantastic, but several greens had some bare spots. The cart paths were horrible though. Lots of big bumps. There was also a big lack in signage. If you’ve never played here or live in the subdivision, it’s almost impossible to know where to go. They need to add signs along the road to direct you to the other courses and even holes. Overall though the course was fun to play.
Would recommend it to others, but definitely has some areas that could be improved

Unique Course and Great Value

This was my first time playing this course and I greatly enjoyed it. For mid December and having several inches of snow just one week ago, I thought the course was in good condition. I was worried it would be a frustrating day after reading about how difficult this course could be, but the great weather, views, and uniqueness really covered up the doubts. Overall it was a great round. I was very lucky to be hitting straight that day. If not, it could’ve been been a very long afternoon

Fantastic!

Staff was super friendly and helpful and the amenities were superb! I was a little hesitant to go because they had just aerated, but it really didn't affect my play much at all. The course was very well maintained and had some amazing views on the back nine. The only downside was it is a little expensive, but you definitely get your money's worth. Would definitely go again!

Value Course

Some fairways were in rough shape in spots and some greens had some dead spots, but overall it was a good course. They had just aerated so that was agrevating. I read in previous reviews that the maintenance used to be top notch but had fallen off recently and that was evident around the course. It's not worth the $35 or so upfront so look on Golfnow for a much better deal

Great Course!

This was a great golf course! The staff is very friendly and the facilities are very well kept. The course is pretty well maintained (even stripe their fairways). Some holes can be challenging with lots of quick elevation changes but overall not too bad. Best deal around!
