Smoky Mountain Area Golf Courses
Gatlinburg Country Club
The oldest country club in the area is the Gatlinburg
Country Club, which is actually located next to Dollywood
in PIGEON FORGE. (yep. you read that correctly! The Gatlinburg
Country Club is located inside the city limits of Pigeon
Forge!!) This course is not only beautiful, but it also
allows non-members to play and to reserve T-times. 1-423-453-3912
for reservations and information. Reservations can be
made up to 7 days in advance (highly recommended) and
cart and green fees range from $41 for Sunday through
Thursdays, and $51 for Friday and Saturday. This is of
course subject to change, but you can at least get an
idea about what you'll need to spend.
The Eagle's Landing Golf Course
When you drive in from Interstate 40, and exit at the
407 milemarker, you will notice a golf course on your
right as you drive toward the Smoky Mountains. That
course is a fairly new one. The Eagle's Landing Golf
Course will allow you to reserve green time up to 30
days in advance with a Master Card or Visa, and the
peak season (May through October) fees are $39.50 for
weekdays, and $46 for weekends. Call 1-423-429-4223
to reserve time.
Bent Creek Golf Course and Resort
L located on highway 321 outside of Gatlinburg. It is
actually about 8 miles from where you turn left at traffic
light #3, so don't think you have missed it. The phone
number for reservations is 1-423-436-3947. They are
accepting reservations for anytime in this calendar
year. The green fees (including cart) are $48 from Sunday
through Friday. Saturday is $53.00 and they offer a
twilight rate of $27 after 5 pm until dark. (he said
as long as you can play...that would depend entirely
upon the time of year. For the summer time, this is
a great bargain since it is daylight until 9 p.m.)

In Townsend, we have a couple of very nice golf
courses as well. Don't forget about them. Townsend isn't
quite as busy as the cities of Gatlinburg and Pigeon
Forge, so your chances of getting the reservation time
that you wanted are great.
