Lake Junaluska, NC · 4.1 mi away

Lake Junaluska Golf Course sits at the west end of Lake Junaluska in the mountains near Waynesville, North Carolina, on the grounds of the Lake Junaluska Conference and Retreat Center. The course opened in 1919, initially as nine holes, with guests once arriving by train and crossing the lake by boat to play. An old farmhouse served as the original clubhouse, and the course expanded to 18 holes during a 1990s renovation. It marked its centennial in 2019 with a year-long series of events drawing on decades of local history. The course underwent further improvements beginning in 2018 aimed at restoring its condition and profitability. It remains open to the public as part of the retreat center's recreational offerings.

Whittier, NC · 13 mi away

Sequoyah National Golf Club is a public course near Whittier, North Carolina, owned by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and set on steep, dramatic terrain in the Great Smoky Mountains about 45 minutes from Asheville. The course was designed by Robert Trent Jones II with Notah Begay III and opened in 2009. The routing climbs and descends sharply across the mountainside, producing significant elevation change hole to hole and panoramic views of the surrounding national park land. Bentgrass greens and zoysia fairways were installed, with a later renovation converting bunkers to a capillary-concrete system and adding zoysia to the fairways for consistent year-round conditioning. Sequoyah National operates as a public course with a practice facility including a driving range and chipping area, and it is close to Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort. Annual memberships are also offered alongside daily tee times.
