Lost Creek Golf Club

Tucked into the rolling countryside of Jefferson County, New Market sits in the valley corridor between Knoxville and the Great Smoky Mountains — terrain that gives East Tennessee its character: ridgelines, creek drainages, and the kind of hardwood-covered hills that make autumn rounds feel like something else entirely. Golf in this part of the state tends to reward shot-shaping over power, where the land insists on movement and flat lies are earned rather than given.

Lost Creek Golf Club reflects the spirit of a community-rooted layout, the sort of course that serves as the anchor of a local golf scene rather than a resort destination. Courses in this corridor tend to play through natural terrain features rather than around them, and a name like Lost Creek suggests the kind of property where water defines the routing and shapes strategy throughout the round.

Without a prominent national profile, this is a course likely best known to regulars from Knoxville and the surrounding Jefferson County communities — a reliable, honest round in genuinely beautiful Tennessee hill country.
