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.

The staff, especially Nancy, and the starters, were very accommodating and friendly. We could not play the front nine due to construction conditions, but played back twice

The course needs to have some kind of supervision ie prison ranger

Nice play decent pace of play.

But for the second time in a row playing at the course people cut us off trying to cut in ,especially on the tenth hole. They also have their own golf carts so guys come out on the course and cut in and play for free. Not fare that we have to pay a lot of money to play and they do not!!!!!!

Soggy

Challenging course. Even more challenging with the mud. Cart path only on the day I went. Could really be an incredible course, needs some work. One note, the clubhouse restaurant is really good.

Wet weather
Used cart

Wet Cummings Cove Adjustments

Heavy rains the day before changed how to play this course; many soggy spot in fairways slowed ball rollout lengthening approaches; soft greens helped hold pitches, but slowed putts; added to the challenge!

Very wet

Well maintained but terrible drainage after a rainy week. Worth it for a hot deal but a bit over priced at regular rates unless it hasn’t been dry for a while

Cummings Cove Still Challenging

Challenging mountain course layout; greens and fairways in good shape, but many tee boxes threadbare; easy to book on GolfNow; reasonable pace of play ; and a good value.

Great little coursr for the value

I played with a friend. We only had time to play 9 holes.cost was 30 dollars per person inc. cart which I thought was pretty affordable. Pace of play was good.The group ahead if us was a tad slow, but overall, we did not wait too long. The back nine is prettier but did not have time for that.This is a narrow course.So if you're someone who's pretty erratic, make sure you bring a lot of golf balls
