    One of the cool pieces of farm equipment.
    Cathy S.

    This place is so much fun!!! Highly recommend it. They have two parking lots, one is free and I'm not sure about the other one. Price to play golf is reasonable. The employees are super friendly. After you pay you pick your club and ball out. When we went there was a line to go to the top of the mountain. The employees do a great job spacing the crowd out so you'renot crowdedat the top. After you get on the tram they give you a brief intro and you ride the tram to the top of the mountain. It is located on a side of a mountain with a hillbilly theme. Several pieces of farm equipment is used for the various holes. So much fun! It is shaded which is really nice. They have two sides to choose from: A and B. One side is a steeper than the other side. When you are done you ride the tram back down the hill. We did get several hole in ones!! This is definitely a must do in Pigeon Forge!

    As a local content creator here in Gatlinburg The Gatlinburg Hussey I tell all of my subscribers to visit Hillbilly Golf here in Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park The most fun you'll have playing mini golf

    A must do in Gatlinburg, TN! It's located right before the main strip on the Parkway, but it's easily walkable and safe. They also offer a trolley but we went later at night and didn't see any trolleys. There are two parking lots for the experience, I think one is free and the other is paid. Beware, leave your ticket in your car. We almost got a ticket when we were leaving the attraction since I took my ticket with me! There is a small window where you pay - $12.50 for adults and $10.50 for kids 12 and under. The bonus is if you come back to play again within 3 days you pay only $6.50! After you pay, you pick a club and ball and then wait for the tram up the mountain. It only takes a few minutes and is a super fun experience, especially for the kiddos. The front row is the best seat! They provide brief instructions and then you are sent up the mountain - it's a pretty steep incline up about 300 feet. Then you embark on side A or B. A is a shorter course and B is a longer one, we got a few holes in one on both sides but the kids liked side A better. At night the golf is brightly lit throughout the course. You basically play "hillbilly" themed holes down the mountain - lots of obstacles. Some look easy but they are harder than they look. Experience 10/10! Employees are friendly and the attraction was one of the best mini golf experiences we have had. A must do in Gatlinburg!

    We spent 4 hours here on the 4th of July enjoying both 18 hole sides. Great fun for the whole family. While there's lots of people playing, we never had to wait long to play each hole. We arrived about 10 AM. It took about 30 minutes in the queue to pay and ride the tram to the top. One hour, roughly, to play. Since it's only $6.50, plus tax, to play again (within 3 days), we decided to do the other 18. Unfortunately, the queue was now about an hour. Still, we were glad to have done it. BTW, parking in the municipal lot is not free. Small lot, with restrooms, that costs $1/hour. Credit/debit only. Law enforcement routinely checks and tickets those that didn't pay.

    Great so since and literally 10/10! So fun!!!! Amazing find! Loved it so much. Wish we had taken advantage of coming back within 3 days for a discounted 2nd round. So much charm and theme is on point!

    Fun outdoor experience. The staff was friendly and the pricing was very fair. The course is shaded so it is a nice break on a sunny day.

    Excellent mini golf course with a really unique incline rail car that takes you to the top. I thought each hole was very well designed and fun for any age. They also had some cool displays about old farm equipment, trees, and wildlife. Funny signs throughout as well. It's no wonder they've been in business 40+ years and stood the test of time. I'd say it's one of the best in the area. Only downside is the traffic and parking in Gatlinburg. But, that's probably an issue anywhere. Highly recommended. Fun mini golf.

    Hillbilly golf is a household favorite! We've been twice and have done both courses. It's a must when you visit Gatlinburg!

    We loved this golf course. Super unique and fun for the whole family. Love that there's 2 different courses to pick from and you can do the only course or a 2nd game for only $6.50

    We had an absolute blast at Hillbilly Golf! We played one of the courses during the day and had so much fun that we couldn't resist coming back later that night to play the second one. The ride up the mountain on the incline tram is such a cool way to start the experience, and the mountain-themed obstacles are quirky and fun. Playing at night gave the whole place a different vibe--peaceful, cooler, and lit up just enough to make it feel like a new adventure. Friendly staff, clean course, and just an all-around great time. Highly recommend doing both courses if you can!

    Hillbilly Golf course is located in Gatlinburg on the Parkway and while it has a pay parking lot next door is walkable from most of the downtown hotels. Cost is $14 for adults to play one of their two courses. The receipt let's you return within 3 days to play the other course for 1/2 price. This mini golf course is unique in that it is built into a hillside above the ticket booth and both courses are accessed by a funicular that takes the patron up the hillside to each of the courses No. 1 tee box. The people who staff the course were very friendly and helpful. Being on the hillside the staff warn you about the squirrels and chipmunks that live near the course and occasionally steal your ball. Also, bears sometime frequent the course after closing at night. This is common all over Gatlinburg as it borders the National Park. The courses have trees all around them and that means leaves are common on the putting surface. The uniqueness of playing mini golf on a hillside is overshadowed by the goofiness of some of the holes that could also be in better shape. I thought playing the course I chose was ok but not enough to come back to take advantage of their 1/2 price offer. I give 3 stars because playing here is about average from what I expect from most mini golf courses.

    Just one of the unique features

    Always a fun time to ride up the mountain and play putt-putt on your way down. Could use some updates, but that's my only criticism.

    Ask the Community - Hillbilly Golf

    Should you make reservations to play?

    No, reservations are not required.

    Is it handicap friendly?

    It's on the side of a mountain so there are tons of steps. I don't think it's wheelchair accessible.

    Would a couple with a baby be able to play or would it not be stroller accessible?

    It is not stroller accessible. A lot of uneven pathways and stairs as the course is built in to the mountainside.

    Was there fire damage at the putt putt course?

    No damage to Hillbilly Golf, but many many structures were destroyed including the RiverHouse Inn that has been in Gburg for decades. Evidence of the massive fire is still visible.

    What is the cost?

    13 dollars, and 10 for military and senior citizens. 5 dollars to go again immediately after the first round

    This place swindles. Do not buy gift cards from Tori…read more I visited Gatlins on October 6, 2023. The place was running a promotion for selling gift cards. I bought 4 gift cards to give to my family members as stocking stuffers for Christmas. Tori, the manager who assisted me with the sale, said that the gift cards would be honored for one year. Sadly, my family was not able to make our annual trip this year. I called to ask for a refund. When I purchased the gift Cards Tori told me specifically that I would be refunded if the gift cards were unable to be used. Tori wrote her name and number on the gift card, just in case the family was not able to travel to Gatlinburg When I called today to ask for the refund we agreed upon Tori and the other Manager said they were not able to issue a refund. I asked if they would issue the refund if I mailed the gift certificates back. She said they would not. I will be reporting this transaction to my credit card company. Do not buy gift cards from this establishment. If it was possible to give a lower rating I would.

We've gone two years in a row (2024 and 2025) and even between the years it seems that there is more to offer. Plan to be there all day, especially if you have small children. There is so much for them to do, climb, and explore which is nice so you can enjoy your drink while they play. All the kids areas are secure too so you won't lose them or worry about them falling down the mountain. Our kids LOVE the slide and birdhouse climbing area. There's a stage for live entertainment close by which we really enjoyed. Lots of food options all over however we really enjoy the lookout mountain restaurant and you have to get ice cream for dessert afterwards. Transportation up the mountain is either by their Ridge Rambler (open bus with no windows so dress accordingly) or the skyline with both open and closed cars (runs really slowly and usually a LONG line). I highly recommend purchasing your tickets online in advance because even though that option is available, many do not opt for it and would rather stand in a VERY LONG line to purchase tickets and then get in line for the skyline. If you purchase in advance and opt to ride the bus like we do, wait time is very minimal and you can bypass most of the line which is a huge plus. (also, the waiting area is by 2 private restrooms in case you need to go before boarding). Even though it's busy, everything is so spread out that it's not crowded which is super nice. Plan to take a backpack to carry items as you will stay on the mountain and it's not easy to go back and forth to the car (could but will take time), plus, it's nice to have in case it's chilly and hot later so you can store clothing layers. Currently, Anakeesta is closed until March for remodels and they've shared ideas and things to come which all look like great additions. We can't wait to go again this fall 2026 to enjoy all the new amenities. Highly recommend for all ages!

We had to switch to another lane since the pins were not coming all down or it was malfunctioning at times. There was a staff member that checked on it and he decided to temporarily close one of the lanes down when it kept having issues.
