The Omni Grove Park Inn

This one is worth the money!

I play here as often as I can. The course is beautiful,

but the staff is incredible! If you've never experienced

"premium treatment" , you should visit this place.

The course is in excellent shape because everyone cares.

Thanks again to everyone!

Played this classic Donald Ross design after two days of torrential rains. It was wet, but draining well. Terrific, classic Ross course. Fabulous views of the surrounding mountains and Grove Park Inn above the course. You can feel the history as you play. Ross, Jones, Presidents and so many others have played here. Greens recently aerated and coming along nicely. Walked and pushed my cart. Front is not flat, and has good sized hills as you climb uphill from 5th thru 9th holes. Back nine is extremely hilly, so be ready for the ups and downs, especially the ups. Makes 385 yard holes play like 450+ uphill. Not sure if the scorecard reflects the true yardages - my GPS was telling me the course from the Black tees was much longer, so take a GPS/rangefinder to check your yardages and adjust accordingly, especially uphill. Great, friendly staff. Must go to the Sunset Terrace at the Grove Park Inn post round for a drink and the magnificent views.

First time playing a high end course and was not disappointed!!! Shot my best round

For late March in Western North Carolina, the fairways and greens were in excellent shape, greens very fast but putted true.

Not the most creative Ross layout, but this was a 1926 re-design by him of the original 1899 course. Plenty of challenges greenside, false fronts, undulations, etc. in which Ross no doubt had a hand.

Fairly tight fairways, some sloping, no need for lots of bunkers, etc. Mountain views to the west are fantastic!

Beautiful Donald Ross course. Challenging, but perfect, greens. A must play if you live in or visit Asheville NC

Love this Donald Ross course. Great playing experience

Wonderful Donald Ross course. Great condition and always great views.

My ratings are based on the fact that I got a great deal through Golfnow. This course is typically a bit pricey, but was a super bargain at $32.00. It's worth playing at twice that. It's one of the best kept courses in the area. Fairways and greens are excellent. Pace of play was excellent on this particular day, plus I was able to comfortably play in shorts and short sleeves. Not bad for March 1st.

I liked the course but it was in later winter / early spring. The pro shop said it was 90 degrees with the cart but the postings on the course said cart path only. The course was far from easy but it could use some more traps to make it more interesting. The view of the mountains, Grove Park Inn and very nice homes made for a very nice day.

Got a hot deal and played for $39.00. Cold, 45 degrees, and cloudy day and we had the place to ourselves. Not sure I'd ever play if I had to pay full price, but I would pay $39 to play rounds like I did anytime.

Considering that this course had flooding rains over several weeks, it was in good condition. There was major damage to several holes and fairways were wet, HOWEVER thanks to the crews and well established grass, the course play was good. This is an excellent course with rolling fairways and fast greens. Staff was excellent. Highly recommended. Will definitely return to the Grove Park.

We played the Grove Park Inn golf course in mid-December. The weather was perfect - low-70s - and the course was in great shape. The greens were fast and the fairways (all belt-grass) were perfect.

Kudos to Fred, the golf starter, was very friendly and knowledgeable.

With a great rate from golfnow, I played this classic Ross track. Narrow fairways, turtle back greens made for a very challenging round. Greens were still fast after a serious rain. 3 putts were not unusual for the entire group. Great views of surrounding mountains and valleys. Regular rates are for resort guests, not for locals

Well cared for Donald Ross track...great value...will play again

The GPI course was in nearly perfect shape. If players would fix divots on greens it would have been perfect. The staff was open and friendly. I love playing here!

Staff was very professional and helpful. The conditions are absolutely perfect. The fairways are cut nicely tight and are weed free. The greens are extremely fast but soft for receiving approach shots. I was never pushed or held up by any group. It was a perfect day of golf for me.

Nice course, tough to read greens no practice facilities

Staff was very friendly and helpful. We had 2nd tee time and for the most part we weren't pushing anyone and no one was pushing us. Course is consistently well maintained and was in great condition considering it was late August and the area had had a lot of rain. It is a classic tricky Donald Ross design which presents you good opportunity to reach in Regulation but hold on too your putts! Slick fast rolling greens with subtle to dramtic breaks, and a lot of false fronted greens so select the right club. All in all it was an enjoyable course and enjoyable day, however I'd never suggest paying retail there, you must get a deal and make it a low price deal. There are other courses in the area for around $100 That are in much better shape. Great course and swanky facility!

I had a lot of fun playing this old Donald Ross design. It's not very long, even from the back tees, but offers a lot of interesting and challenging holes. The greens were in good shape and run pretty quick with classic Ross slopes. I played as a single at a twilight rate and got the whole course in in 3 hours. I'd love to go back and play it again.

A nice place and typical Donald Ross design not sure if this worth 120 or so for some of their rates but if you get a deal on golf now or so it's def with the 75 to 100 price range
