Three Ridges Golf Course
📍 6101 Wise Springs Rd, Knoxville, TN 37918, USA
★ 4.5 (301) Good availabilityThree Ridges Golf Course in Knoxville is an 18-hole layout rated 4.5 from 301 Google reviews. Golfers describe well-maintained greens, a thoughtful layout with some good views, and a friendly staff, and some call it one of the best municipal courses they have played. It can be a challenge, and the Bermuda rough is thick off the fairway, but the fairways are decently wide and the course works well for large group outings.

Beautiful course! Well maintained greens. Very well planned out for a large group scramble. The course has its challenges, but is friendly in some areas. Fair ways decently wide. Cart technology is amazing, with GPS, music optional, and when you go off course (marked by yellow dots on screen) the vehicle will warn you before stopping. Also has an auto brake feature on the carts. Will definitely want to play there again. Pro shop was not open, but seemed very well stocked
Three Ridges Golf Course is by far the best municipal course I have ever played. The length, layout, condition, staff, pro shop, and fees provide any golfer with an amazing experience. When I lived in Knoxville, this golf course was a little bit of a drive from my home, but I always seemed to enjoy my day due to the professionalism of the pro shop employees and the courtesy of my golfing partners. I always showed up as a single, but somehow, some way, the starter would always find a spot for me to get to the first tee. I took this place for granted when I lived in Knoxville County, and even though I have enjoyed playing some courses in Nashville, I still rank Three Ridges as my number one public golf course. Someone told me years ago that Three Ridges hosted Nike Tour events. Once you play there, you'll understand why golfers at a higher level would be challenged by this layout. I don't really have the skills to play Three Ridges from the tournament tees, but even if you're a single digit handicap player, a couple of the par 5s play like par 6s. The golf professional Mark is a very kind and skilled teacher. The starters and pro shop staff are wonderful as well...⛳👍✌️
Played here for the first time, it’s actually a pretty nice course. It’s in great shape, rates aren’t bad, and some of the holes are pretty challenging. It’s got some good views and the course has a good layout. The food in the clubhouse is good and on the cheaper side. Would definitely come back and play again
Love the course layout. Only thing I didn't care for was the depth of the Bermuda rough. If you miss the fairway you will spend a lot of time looking for balls. Public golf courses should keep rough cut lower in my opinion. Slows play and it sucks to lose golf balls that just miss the fairway.
Extremely nice people working there, starter was so nice! Went for a Church outing yesterday and I really enjoyed it. It is a tough course!! If you want a challenge - go here!!
