Fox Den Country Club

Fox Den Country Club is a full-service private country club in Farragut, west of Knoxville, Tennessee, set against the backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains. Founded in 1968 by Knoxville insurance executive Chester A. Massey, the club opened its championship 18-hole golf course in 1969, designed by noted golf course architect Willard Byrd, who called the property "one of the most beautiful pieces of land" he had worked on. The course measures 7,000 yards from the back tees. The club's current 34,000-square-foot clubhouse, designed by Michael Brady, Inc. and opened in 1995, houses several banquet rooms that can be configured for gatherings from small, intimate parties of 10 to celebrations of up to 400 guests. Custom room set-ups — theater, classroom, conference, crescent round, and U-shaped — support everything from weddings and bar/bat mitzvahs to business seminars and family reunions, with plated or buffet menus available. Private rooms are available for wedding parties to prepare before the ceremony, and services such as on-site hair and makeup and chair massage can be arranged for brides on the day of the event. Beyond the clubhouse, members and guests have access to tennis, a fitness center, and a Junior Olympic pool.
