About Knoxville Municipal Golf Course

Knoxville Municipal is one of the City of Knoxville's three 18-hole public courses. The Roberts family built it, D.J. DeVictor designed it, and it opened in the spring of 1984. Today the city owns it and Purple Horse Hospitality runs it.

It's a par 72 that meanders over rolling hills and across running streams, with Bermuda fairways and bentgrass greens. Expect some uneven lies. The scorecard's local rules keep carts on the path on 14, 16 and every par 3, so plan to walk a little on those holes.

The clubhouse sits at the top of the big hill above the parking lot, and its back patio looks down on the 18th. Stop at the deli before the round or at the turn. The chili dog is the thing people order.

It's one of 45 courses Yoink watches in the Knoxville & Chattanooga area, and the closest alternative is Dead Horse Lake Golf Course, about 7 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
