Played on the way home from the 2025 Masters. Such a unique track. Loved the variability in the layout. I feel like most “river” courses give you a hole or two on the water, but Island Pointe gives you more than you could ask for.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s conditions rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Conditions is the golfer’s overall conditions score, or the average of their greens, fairways, tee box, and bunker scores when no overall was given. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs conditions ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Knoxville, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
