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.

Some holes closed

Just like the last couple of round nobody cares to mention that this course has two holes that you're not even allowed to play, so I paid $50 for 16 holes, I think the course or golfnow should have to put that on the website. I'm almost done with golfnow they're never honest.

Bring a book and your own lunch…

Let’s just say I knew something was wrong when we had a 1010 tee time and we weren’t able to tee off until 1030 because of the slow play.

The starter assured us the pace of play would pick up when we were on the course and we would have a decent round..

Once we were finally able to tee off, we had to wait on every single shot. It took us two hours and 45 minutes to finish the front nine.

At the turn, we saw the two groups in front of us backed up on the 10th so we decided to go into the bar for a quick lunch.

Once inside, we found a line at the bar for drinks and food, we also found that they had run out of half of the items on the menu.

I wound up grabbing two wrinkled hotdogs (at least I think they were hotdogs) off the roller machine, just for something to eat.

Despite the fact that all I got was sell service food, it still took me almost 10 minutes to wait in line and pay due to the fact there’s only one person working the entire area.

When I was walking back to my cart, I commented about the slow play to one of the employees at the card barn, he just laughed and said oh yeah, you should’ve been here the other day it was worse..

Needless to say, the course was decent, not gonna lie but the overall course management was terrible. I would never think of playing here again unless I got the first tee time out.

Oh, and the alleged hotdog? After two bites into the leathery dry, jerky like meat tube, it was lost into the trash bin on the 10th tee box. Just like my patience for this place.
