Asheville Municipal Golf Course

Asheville, NC · 3.7 mi away

The Omni Grove Park Inn course sits on the eastern slope of Sunset Mountain within the historic Grove Park Inn estate in Asheville. Donald Ross renovated the layout in the 1920s and gave it the routing still in play today through the Blue Ridge foothills. The par-70 course threads tree-lined, hilly corridors with significant elevation change and long views back toward the Arts and Crafts hotel. At roughly 6,100 yards it is short by modern standards, but uneven lies and steeply elevated approaches make length beside the point. It is the mountain counterpoint to Ross's flatter Sandhills work.

Weaverville, NC · 8.4 mi away

Reems Creek Golf Club lies in a valley near Weaverville, North Carolina, a short drive from Asheville and surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains. The course was designed by the British firm Hawtree and Son of Oxford, England, the same firm behind Royal Birkdale, and opened in 1989 with a Scottish Highland-style look of rolling terrain, deep knolls, and bentgrass tees, fairways and greens. It plays to a par of 71 across roughly 6,235 yards from the back markers. After falling into disrepair and a 2019 bankruptcy, new local ownership took over at the end of that year and made extensive renovations, including bunker removal and irrigation and clubhouse upgrades. It operates as a semi-private club with limited outside play alongside its golf community of homes.
