About this course
Bald Mountain Golf Course is an 18-hole resort course at Rumbling Bald Resort on Lake Lure, North Carolina. The official layout measures 6,283 yards at par 72 from the back tees, with an unusual hole mix of five par 5s, five par 3s and eight par 4s. The course plays over varying elevations with small greens and narrow, tree-lined fairways. The 11th demands an extreme uphill second shot, a creek runs along the right side of the 14th fairway, and the 16th green served as a backdrop for a scene in the film Dirty Dancing.
