I played a couple of years ago when the old owners had it and it was still the Country Club of…read moreBristol and was really let down. Greens were horrible...fairways were butchered...and there was water standing everywhere. It is completely different now!! Greens were very very good ...rolled so true and smooth as silk! Fairways were so nice I didn't even want to drive the cart on them! Heck even the sand was in good shape...wow! Price is a little higher but completely worth it! If you want a great place to play this is it!

I do not recommend playing golf here if you have a bigger group than 2. We had 6 players, and…read moreunderstand we need to split up. However, the staff was extremely rude and proceeded to come find us and tell us, "if I see you it wont be good." Then told us he was going to be an a** about it if we drove on the fairways not on a 90° angle. Which we were not leaving the cart path to begin with. It was pouring rain, no one was behind or in-front of us anyways. We have always had issues trying to play at this course. One time they tried to not sell us 9 holes because we had to be done by 8:00, and they would get upset if they had to come find us. Keep in mind, it was 5:00. So I do NOT recommend this golf course. We left on the 2nd hole after paying for 9 holes for 6 people. We will NOT be back.

Just an awesome golf course, I sure wish we had something close to this in West Knoxville.read more

While the actual park frontage area is fairly tiny, consisting of not much but a small shelter with…read morepicnic tables, and a basketball court, it includes trailheads abutting some excellent running and hiking trails. On a recent visit, I was able to enjoy a brisk run along Steele Creek Lake on a wide, relatively flat trail covered in a bed of leaves (as indicated by my pictures). I also started a hike up the Lake Ridge Trail, more of a winding single-track with a good bit of up-and-down, but turned around due to an increasingly persistent chilly rain. I pretty much had the park all to myself, though I'm guessing the weather forecast of 45 degrees and rain had something to do with that. Even still, I'm guessing that due to the fairly sparse population of this area, it's rarely if ever what a big-city guy like myself would consider to be "crowded." If you're in the area and would like to go out for a run or walk, this park is definitely worth a visit.

One of the classic spots to visit in Wise, County. There is really a very good set of trails around…read morefor either hiking or mountain biking. Much of the local mountain biking scene maintains these trails to exceptional levels. High knob was vandalized / burned down a number of years ago, but the rebuild place gives just as good a views and is more accessible. Not as good in the Parkitecture front, but does it's purpose. Flag Rock is part of the area and is a beautiful overlook to Norton. Another "must see" spot. Numerous trails and routes from this part of the area. Also, there are a ton of camping, picnicing, shelters and other ways to spend some good times outdoors with friends and family.

I have visited this gym a few times while visiting this area due to my job. I have no complaints…read morewhatsoever about this particular gym. The staff is nice, the weights are in pretty good shape, the machines look pretty new, and it has everything that you would want to work out. Not to mention, it has a few racquetball courts, a pool, locker rooms, and even a basketball hoop. I'm not sure of the price and that is something to call about. Luckily, I get in for only $5 due to my profession. Overall, it's great.

This chain of gyms was bought out by Lifestyle Fitness…read more That's when things started going down the drain. I have been treated rudely several times by the employees. Either they are not trained properly or they follow the owners' directions (even worse). The employees (and probably the owners) know absolutely nothing about gym etiquette. Seems like they just bought this business w/o a clue of what a gym should be like to have satisfied customers. First of all, I have never heard of a gym opening at 10 o'clock, same time that the first class starts! Not even the courtesy of opening few minutes earlier to get the people in so they can do some warm up and take care of various business, like getting dressed!! They used to close at 8:30 M-Th (the earliest of any gym I've been), now they close at 7!! Incredible, never heard of such a thing. Oh, okay they sell 24-7 cards. So, I guess you're kind of steered that direction. That's pretty crappy. The monthly fee is as high as I've paid anywhere else. But now, I've not seen that monthly charge reduced to compensate for the shorter hours. They have all kinds of rules posted around the gym. You can actually walk around just to look at all the signs to entertain yourself (done that myself few times). And the funny (?) thing is that their own trainers don't follow them!! On two occasions I personally saw a woman trainer load the leg press with 4 45-lb plates per side and just leave it there ... for the next one to unload. I've been called a "ghost" by one of those working at the desk. I've been asked "to leave with me" by a woman at the desk when it was approaching 5 min. to closing. The same one that, when I pointed at the sign showing closing time half hour later, called her boss to complain because she would have gotten stuck there another 30 min. They immediately got rid of that sign and put a new one up. Every gym I've been, there is a courtesy of giving people 5/10 extra minutes to complete their workout. Don't expect that here!! Part of a gym's etiquette is to not bother someone while he is training. Don't expect that here!! I have been interrupted few times and once when I actually was under the weights! I see my review is getting pretty long. More on next installment.
