Cummings Cove Golf & Country Club
About
Nestled within the Blue Ridge Mountains, Cummings Cove Golf & Country Club is peacefully tucked away with the Great Smokies sheltering it to the west. It offers some of the most stunning views of any golf course in western North Carolina. Although it feels remote, Asheville is less than half an hour away. The mountainous surroundings provide a dramatically hilly terrain that is ideal for a challenging round of golf. Players will face plenty of uneven lies on this layout. The elevation changes also provide some interesting risk-reward opportunities throughout the golf course. Mature trees frame most of the holes and the small, sloped greens are often framed with bunkers. The Cummings Cove layout seems unusually short at only 6,415 yards from the back tees but it's not to be underestimated. The undulating terrain makes it feel much longer.

Great course
The course is in fantastic shape. It is very challenging and incredibly fun. The temperature was in the high 50’s and very few people were there. It is easy to lose your golf ball in the rough, the course is narrow
Golfnow should warn customers
Greens had recently been aerified, almost unplayable. GPS on cart not functioning. Gnats horrible.
Golfnow should have a warning system in place for work being done on courses
Nice Course
Very nice golf course in excellent condition, recommend you take gnat repellent as they are fierce at some times.
On site grill was not open as being remodeled but should be open soon.
Great Course!
Great course. Friendly staff and starter. Pace of play was slow, took more than 4:20 to play. Conditions were ideal — even with all the rain it was great and greens rolled very true. Only complaint is they are transitioning who runs the food/bar and that wells closed. Bummer to not be able to grab a drink during such a slow round.
Otherwise, great course!
No Bueno
Course in rough shape. Staff not friendly. Permanently closed the bar and restaurant. I think they raised the rates too. Pass on this place.
Two different nines
First of all - the staff was very nice the entire time.
Two very different nines, front nine appears to have been there quite a while. Narrow, small greens, pretty poor design, funky doglegs, overall fair to poor condition. 8 short holes and one very long par five ninth. Would rate one star.
No 10 is a par three over water, pretty much in line with the other holes in the front. Then on No 11, someone is developing new housing and has built new holes for No 11 thru 17. Those holes are overall good, much more modern and in much better condition than the front. Then back to No 18 that is part of the old course. Kind of a funky mismatch of holes overall.
Just went there because we were driving by and it fit our schedule. Would hope there are much better choices nearby.
Nice course
Course is in nice shape. I like the different layouts of holes. Some you can grip and rip. Others you have to be strategic. Always enjoy playing here.
Unreasonably tight and fairway grass high
This course is narrow to the point of not enjoyable. I am a 10 index and have been a 7 known for straight drives. Fairway grass was half an inch and roughs 3 inches plus. Played gold tees at 6,000+. course had 5 par threes and most very long 180-200 and 5 par fives. Greens had plenty of grass and were rolliing about 8-9 which was ok. I would not go back.
Over the month of July we have received just over 10" of rain. As a result of that we have not been able to mow as frequently as we would like which has resulted in thicker rough than normal. I typically tell new players to not let the yardage fool them, it does play longer than the yardage shows. We think you for coming out and wish you best in your future rounds where ever you play.
