As long as I've lived, I have never been to a disc golf course that's been so perfect. The claytons…read moreis a professionally cut and maintained course right outside of Knoxville tn. that has everything you might want out of a disc golf course taken care of. Here's the list: 1) claytons is the size and quality of an actual golf course, maintained for disc golfers. 2) there are dedicated AstroTurf tee off pads at the start of each hole 3) there are detailed course maps available at the start of each pin with par, total distance, and a and b markers clearly labeled 4) there is a creative expanse of different shots to be made on a course that has plenty of open space and winds around through both forest and park like setting, the full course is huge 5) creative liberties taken on some holes--especially 18. The course was still under construction (front 9 in forest) and so I only played the back 9 in the park. Playing just half of the course still delivered a full and five star experience as this was the best course that I have ever been too. Definitely try to be back to try out the whole course!

This is one of my favorite parks in all of Knoxville. First it's so big. The park has an amazing…read moreloop that's perfect if you're trying to do a few laps to get some miles in. It also has a trail that goes beside a pond and goes into a wooded area that's great if you're looking for a more serene experience. In addition there is a dog park and typically when I've been there the people are very chill which is not the same at other dog parks I've been to where some folks can be a little uptight. There's a large shelter - perfect for picnics - and large green fields which often hosts soccer games among other sports. Finally I don't have children but from what I can tell the playground looks fantastic - pretty new and updated very big and there's always a lot of kids playing at it. There's also a pretty large frisbee golf course. Victor Ashe has a little bit of everything for the whole family which is why I love it so much!

After driving around, we came across the playground area that also displayed Alex Healy's statue. He is the author of "Roots." It's a lovely statue of him and it's really big! There is no graffiti or damages to his statue, which is always a good thing! There is a lovely playground next to it and it has lots of things for kids to do! There are swings and slides and monkey bars for them to use. There isn't any shade in that area, which is a bummer so make sure you keep cool with an umbrella, sunglasses, and water! There is parking on the street above on Dandridge St.

We located Morningside Park quite easily off Dandridge Ave..I just plugged the directions in to my Google Maps app on my android and Gertrude (the name of my phone) guided us there quickly from our luncheon off Central Ave. We went strictly to see the Alex Haley statue located there in the Haley Heritage Square. This park is large and the entire area is FREE. We found parking easily and entered into the area of the park where the Statue is located. It is very nice but remember on a HOT SUNNY day, like today..Don't touch the statue YOU WILL GET BURNED...just a little FYI in case you wanted to climb on it for a photo or put a small child near it for a photo opportunity..just be careful it will BURN YOU or THEM... I was surprised to learn that my 18 yr old daughter has NEVER SEEN the ROOTS SAGA...I am a bad mommy..I have to make sure she sees it and soon!!! IT is a terrific Story of a True family that needs to be heard.. If you are in the area visiting Knoxville, put this Wonderful FREE site on your MUST DO LIST...and enjoy...the park is nice and set up for picnicking if you choose..

I finally got a chance to come here with my neighbor and her toddler on a weekday and I was surprised how many kids were at the playground. However, we never felt crowded here and there are several playgrounds in the park, with one being in a slightly wooded section. Besides children's playgrounds, the park offers extensive greenways, sports facilities, and even, event spaces. Sports facilities include: baseball/softball fields, soccer field and an outdoor fitness center. On my next visit, I'm going to explore even more of the greenways and try to find the steel sculpture in the park called the "Quantum Embrace." Know before you go: 1) Lakeshore is open daily: 6 am - 10 pm 2) Plenty of parking spaces 3) There are public restrooms onsite 4) Events at the park hosted by the Roots & Revelry Group. Some events coming up are Paint & Sip (April 28th) and Mahjong in Garden (May 12th)

While they also have a ton of stuff for skateboarders as well, there cream of the crop is definitely disc golf. I've been to Pluto's a couple of times in the past when visiting the Knoxville area. What's cool about Pluto's is that they have free maps of all the disc golf parks in the Knoxville and Farragut areas if you ask. The staff is also very nice and approachable. For this place, think comic book store but for disc golf, it's got exactly that feel. They have a huge selection of discs at various weights, as well as collectible discs that are no longer being printed and "light weight" discs for your girl or your guy who has no throw. I went in here recently to pick up a new champion plastic and was by no means disappointed. This place gets five stars because: 1: the place has a relaxed and chill comic book store feel but is for a different kind of nerd. 2: the staff are not only approachable and friendly, but they are also knowledgeable about the areas the store sells. 3: the selection for disc golfers here is on fleek!! 4: they have types of discs here that are rare. They have lightweight discs here, which is also rare. 5: the price for discs is not too bad.

It is by the lake, so had great views. They have nice to basic picnic shelters and pavilions which can match any budget. (Smaller old shelters are as little as $10 a day, and include a grill. See posted photos.) The park is by a public boat launch, paid boat slips, and a campground. They have an outdoor clamshell style stage, lots of walking paths, and pretty nice playgrounds. I really have been enjoying reading in the shade lately, while my husband plays an extra round. The only things I could wish to see improved would be a more easily accessed handicapped bathroom* and a fenced in dog run.** Morristown is doing a pretty good job with their parks. We visit this park, and the nearby dog park at Jaycee field once a week, and often end up getting lunch in town, or running errands. They are hosting this years Tennessee State Disc Golf Championship, June 7-9. Way to go, Morristown! *the bathroom has a handicapped ramp, but is a long walk from the parking lot. This would work for those in scooters, but would be too much for someone in a walker. **the Morristown Dog Park at Jaycee Field is not too far away though, and it is very nice.
