Golf in Farragut

Farragut is a prosperous Knox County municipality in the western Knoxville suburbs, named for Admiral David Farragut — born in nearby Stoney Point — whose Civil War victories at New Orleans and Mobile Bay produced the famous 'Damn the torpedoes' order. The town occupies the varied terrain west of Knoxville along the Turkey Creek corridor and the Campbell Station Road axis, in a landscape that has been transformed over the past thirty years from rural farmland into one of the most sought-after residential addresses in the Knoxville metro. Turkey Creek, the large-format retail and commercial development anchoring the community's western edge, reflects the scale of Farragut's growth. Golf in Farragut and western Knox County reflects the affluence and density of the suburb, with a mix of private clubs and daily-fee facilities serving the population along the I-40/I-75 western corridor.
