Gatlinburg Country Club is great for the price. You will pay about 60 bucks, greens and cart, but if you wait until after 1 you can get 10 dollars off.

The back nine is very diffilcult and number 12 par three will take your breath away. It plays over 200 yards but you can hit a short iron.......thats right! Straight downhill.

Also pick up the tip sheet at the clubhouse.....you will lose 8-10 strokes without it and when it says hit an extra club.....DO IT!

And yes you can get on even though it is a CC.

Bent Creek is a good one also, the front nine is basicly flat , back and forth in the valley around the club house with a creek and pond coming into play, the back nine goes into the mountain type area with lot's of elevation change a par 3 that is also straight down like 150 feet. The back nine had something I had never seen before, flags in the fairway that where landing area's for your next shot around the hill or down in a hollar. Bad part the locals call it Nat Creek in the summer because of all the flying bugs. we played early in the season and no bug problem.
