The Honors Course in Ooltewah stands among the most respected private golf clubs in the United States, a Pete Dye design that has hosted the US Amateur and consistently ranks on national lists of the country's finest courses. Dye's routing through the Hamilton County terrain northeast of Chattanooga maximizes the natural topography — the ridgelines, hardwood forests, and creek drainages of the Ridge and Valley province are all used to strategic effect. Membership here is extremely limited, and the course's physical remoteness from downtown Chattanooga only reinforces the sense of arrival when the gates open.
