The Cleghorn Club

Cleghorn Plantation is a beautiful course with many challenging holes, as well as breathtaking views, especially this time of year (Oct). Our second time playing. Course was in better condition on our first visit in the summer. Greens need to be rolled and cut down more for a "true" roll, they were choppy. Also, many many workers on the back nine when we played, very annoying. We saw, heard, waited for workers to get out of our way on 7 out of 9 holes. This should be done at dawn not when the course is at its peak time.

Great value and the staff and course were in great shape. They had aerated the greens a few weeks earlier but did not seem to effect the putting. This course is worth the drive from Asheville.

Beautiful course. Hilly, but has wide fairways. Great condition. Does have some hazards but is a fair course. Will definitely return to play again

The course is looking and playing really nice. The greens were rolling well and the fairways are cut tight and coming back from the long shutdown nicely. The staff is very friendly and great to talk with. Enjoyed it very much. I will be back!

Great course! Overall very good condition considering the time of year. Staff and facility were great! Hope to play again someday.

Course was in great shape. Played in less than 4 hours on a Monday at noon. Had a great time.

We played as a twosome on a Wed. pm. Staff was super friendly. Course was in pretty good shape on a wet front 9, very good shape on the back 9. The greens were very nice and rolled true. There were several challenging holes that put a premium on landing zones. Beautiful vistas on many holes. It was a fun round of golf. I would recommend this course to anyone who enjoys a challenge.

The course is well maintained and has many beautiful views. Although the course is hilly, the fairways are wide and forgiving. Overall a great value.

great day -- pace of play was very good. finished up in 4 hours. No two holes look the same --

staff was friendly...got the prepay rate for 17 a person. you cant beat the price. i dont think id pay the full price that they charge at the course cause its an hr away from me. $17 id play it every weekend. course was in great shape. rain held off for us. greens were a lil slow from what i was expecting.

Course went into chapter11 and closed for several yrs..reopened 2 yrs ago and has a way to go...Loved the layout but the grass was full of weeds and the greens were not good.

Greens are coming in well. Much better than earlier on in the season. As challenging as ever. Beautiful course. Get out there ASAP for one of the best courses in western NC.

The course has wide, sweeping fairways, generous gently sloping greens, and several elevation changes, to test your skill at adding or subtracting yardage as required. Add in some risk-reward holes & good putting greens, and its easy to say; "I'll be back!!".

Played this course several months ago, about 2 weeks after it reopened and again 8/5. The difference is night and day. Tee Boxes 10/10 Fairway 7/10, needed mowing on the front. Greens 7/10, still recovering from being "punched' and had not been mowed thus the greens were super slow. My son and I used a hot time and were able to play for $17. WELL WORTH IT. If I lived closer (30-40 minutes) I'd play this course weekly. Has a mixture of dog legs, straight shots, short par 3's and at least one that played 190 from the whites. Hilly terrain but still plenty of flat lies. Sand in bunkers was in good shape, unfortunately for me I can attest first hand to both fairway and greenside. Enjoyed the round and will most definitely be back. Oddly enough, ran into a couple of guys that lived further away then I live, I remarked to one of the workers and she laughed and commented, "Yes, we don't see many locals." Either locals don't play or fear that it hasn't recovered from 2 yrs of dormancy. IT has recovered admirably and will only continue to get better if the 3 months between playing it is any indication. Kudo's to the owners and staff. Beautiful property with more then adequate practice space. Do yourself a favor and play Cleghorn.

We really enjoyed the course. We had drove 1-1/2 hours to play the course. It was worth the drive!

We were disappointed to find they had just punched the greens. All in all they were pretty smooth considering. I could see where the greens would be very nice in a few weeks.

Fairways and the rest of the course were very nice. Above average. Beautiful layout. Tight fairways and mountainous.

I'd call the course a hidden gem. If you haven't ever played the course it is a must play. We will defiantly go back.

This is a gorgeous and challenging course. The views are incredible; I spent quite a bit of time taking photos (I was playing as an single).

There is a ton of elevation change and variety in the course. Quite a few great doglegs and fairly long holes too, with opportunity to try and carry hazards. Lots of opportunity for strategy.

The fairways were in great condition. Unfortunately they had just aerated the greens the day before, so I couldn't putt for anything.

Staff is extremely friendly. I can't wait to play this course again!

Beautiful course. Very friendly staff. Reasonably priced.

They are aerating the greens next week so I won't be playing there for a few weeks.

Haven't played there in a few yrs, and we decided to play from the tips which made it more of a challenge, but still fun. I will definitely be back for another round or 2 or 3. Great course to test your game and hit EVERY shot you can imagine

This course sports an excellent layout. Beautiful views and elevation changes. The greens on a scale of 1 to 10 were about a 5. There are bad spots in the greens (that are being repaired) will get better with time. The greens were rolling true but were slow. The fairways, rough, bunkers and other course features were an 8. Overall this course was a great find and provided an enjoyable round of golf. I hope to play here again.

If you haven't played this course in a while, it is well worth the trip. I last played it in March just after it re-opened and it was in really rough shape then. Now, except for some rough spots on the greens, it is in excellent condition and the fairways have come back really well. The staff is very friendly, especially the lady working in the grill. She was even giving away some home-made brownies. These folks are really trying to do things the right way, so hope everyone will support them. It is located a little out of the way, but it is worth the drive.
