Looking for a unique golf experience in East Tennessee?  
River Islands is ideally situated between Knoxville and the Great Smoky Mountains, and a short drive from Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge!

River Islands is as scenic as it is challenging.  Featuring a true, links style, Arthur Hills design and breathtaking tee views, River Islands has been a favorite of East Tennesseans since it opened in 1991.

The course covers over 7,000 yards and takes you over sweeping knolls, into lush valleys, below sharp bluffs, and across a flowing river dotted with islands.  With water on 9-holes and beautiful Zoysia fairways, River Islands offers a challenging yet beautiful experience.  

The course travels along the edge of the French Broad River with three islands in the middle of the river serving as focal points of the course.  The championship layout and manicured conditions make River Islands a consistently superb playing experience.

What are other golfers saying about River Islands?
“One of the best. Make sure you check out landing areas before hitting shots. Sometimes what you see is not what you get. Lots of high rough in summer…worth the drive!”

“Condition, layout, fairways, greens worth twice the money, three times the money, just wish the course was 1000 miles closer to where I live. Would play it all the time.”
