View Course Details
Avalon Golf Course is the creation of golf architect Joe Lee and
is perched on a hillside that offers beautiful views of the East Tennessee
countryside. The course is very well
maintained and features water hazards and many bunkers that present a challenge
for golfers and place an emphasis on risk-reward type shots. Avalon also gives back to the surrounding
community by hosting many tournaments for charities in the area.
Rarity Bay is located just outside of Knoxville, TN and sits on 150 acres
that offer some amazing views of Tellico Lake and the Great Smoky Mountains. The course presents a fun challenge with
sloped fairways, challenging greens and natural water hazards provided by
Tellico Lake. Many tee boxes are
elevated giving golfer’s great views of not only the surrounding scenery but
also of the fairways and greens making it easier to know where to place your
tee shots.
WindRiver just completed a huge renovation in the spring of 2015 that
added new tee boxes, fairways, redesigned bunkers, and added a new bar and
grill to the clubhouse. The course ranges from 4,700 to 7,225 yards depending
on which tee boxes you use making it a great course for any handicap. WindRiver
also offers unlimited range balls and stocked carts including towels, tees and
ice to keep your drinks cold as you enjoy yourself on the brand new redesigned
course.
Tanasi Golf Course is potentially the most played course in
Tellico with the club house sitting on a peninsula surrounded by Tellico
Lake. The course features beautiful
views of the lake on holes 1, 17 and 18. Holes 5, 14 and 18 are par threes that all
have golfers hitting over water off the tee.
Fairways have generous landing areas and the greens are fun to putt on
with some having multiple tiers. Tanasi
is a shorter course with a fun and friendly layout that is in great shape. This is one of our favorite courses in the
area due to the beautiful views from the tee boxes as you navigate the course.
Toqua Golf Course is a par 72 course that was renovated in 2008
and now has four tee boxes that range from 5,230 to 6,910 yards. Toqua, like Tanasi, is placed on the banks of
Tellico Lake with holes 3, 14 and 15 crossing the lake. Most fairways are tree lined placing an
emphasis on shot placement but then open up to large greens.
Kahite is the newest of the three Tellico Village Courses and offers a
unique style of play with views of Tellico Lake and the Great Smoky
Mountains. This classic links style course
is known around the area for being well maintained with very helpful and
friendly staff to help you navigate the course.
Kahite’s signature hole number 9, a 808 yard par 6, makes this course a
must play for golfers traveling to the Knoxville/Tellico area.
