Food scene
I have driven past this place for way too long (always too busy). Perfect example of stop and smell the roses, or the beans. I have found my new fave of the area! The service was outstanding (think typical friendly southern folks) and the food was good. The big surprise is the Pinto Bean Pie, it is a scrumptious way to end the meal, or you could enjoy an old fashioned banana split, either way, stop in. Just 7 miles from the house.

The original 18 holes, designed by Dan Maples, meanders its way through valleys, hills, and woodlands. Then, in 1991, nine more holes were added with the same characteristics or the original design, bringing the area’s first 27 hole golf complex. And if the course itself doesn’t offer enough scenic beauty, you will often find yourself pausing to admire the views of the Great Smokey Mountains and Douglas Lake. Dandridge offers the same lush Bermuda fairways and bent grass green as its sister course (Patriot Hills).
All combinations are par-72 and measure approximately 6,100 yards from the back tees, 5,800 yards from the regular tees, and 4,900 yards from the forward tees. Dandridge is a public course. For tee times please call (865) 397-2655.
Dandridge Golf & Country Club is conveniently located just 25 minutes from Knoxville and 35 minutes from Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. Take I-40 East from Knoxville to exit 417. From the Sevierville area, take highway 66 to exit 407. Then take I-40 East to exit 417.

Что взять с собой
Always check the weather first!
Having lived in this area for 53 years, I do know that the weather has changed. This year at Christmas it was 60 degrees, last year we have 4 inches of snow. Be prepared for daily fluctuations! And the weather can change drastically from area to area. Always check before heading out for the day!
