River Islands Golf Club was designed by internationally renowned golf course architect Arthur Hills. This spectacular course features numerous holes crossing or playing along the French Broad River. With four holes located on islands in the middle of the river, River Islands offers a truly unique golf experience. A "must play" in the Knoxville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area.

River Islands has received Golf Digest's prestigious 4-star rating. With water on 9 holes and beautiful Zoysia fairways, River Islands offers a challenging yet beautiful experience. At 7,001 yards, the course is a worthy adversary to scratch golfers from the "tips", but plays a manageable 6,300 yards from the regular tees. The course travels along the edge of the French Broad River, with three islands in the middle of the river serving as a focal point of the course. The championship layout and manicured conditions make River Islands a consistently superb playing experience.

Outstanding golf course. It is probably my favorite course in the Knoxville area. Fairways and greens are in excellent shape and the scenery on the course is absolutely beautiful. It is definitely a challenging course, but also one that you can shoot a good score on. Don't miss out on playing this one!

A truly unique course. You play from Sevier County across the river to an island then to Knox County and then back to the island and then to Sevier County. From the back tees, there are four tee shots across the river. The fairways are zoysia so the ball sits up and says, "Hit me." In my opinion, one of the finest public access courses in East Tennessee.

I really enjoy River Island. A very good public course and the surroundings are very relaxing. A river winds throuh it and 2 par 3's play across the river. BEAUTIFUL!!
