Boone Golf Club is one of the area's most popular public courses. It was designed by Ellis Maples, the architect of many of the South's finest courses. Utilizing the dramatic Hill Country landscape, the course is as scenic as it is challenging. From the elevated tees you'll get a view of the surrounding mountains and the winding streams that meander through the golf course. The wide fairways are bordered by colorful wildflowers and the greens have subtle but tricky undulations. The par-5 sixth is one of the most memorable holes on the course. The green is the most challenging element of this hole, not only is it steeply pitched there is also water guarding the front. Boone Golf Club is a challenging but fair layout that golfers of all skill levels enjoy playing.

Terrific Course

On a perfect day, this course couldn't have been nicer. Excellent course condition from tees to greens. Pace of play was slower than normal due a group that collapsed down from two foursomes into one group of eight. It appeared the rangers got that worked out after a few holes and pace on the back nine was much improved. Undulating greens were tough to putt, but in great condition.

Wonderful Mountain Golf

First time playing here and was delighted at the course conditions and layout. Very tough greens but in immaculate condition. The reason I did not rate the value higher was the $50 price for a dozen Bridgestone balls. The greens fees and cart rental were good, considering the experience. Will golf here in the future!!

Strange Turn of Events

Normally love playing The Boone Golf Course, but it started to rain a bit as our foursome was finishing the first nine. When we drove away to go to the back nine the course officials created a golf cart blockade to not allow us to play anymore. So we were forced to quit after nine, a strange turn of events.

Boone Golf Club is fantastic

A real treasure only a few minutes from downtown Boone. I took a quick overnight from Pinehurst & played Monday afternoon/Tuesday morning. Wish I could have stayed longer and played all week! Great course conditions & views- its simply a great place. Relatively flat course with tricky greens- I will be back soon & bring some pals for a great trip!- JP

Literally the nicest course

With built in range finders in the cart as well as a beautiful layout with great views this course was amazing even though it was raining. Only problem with the rain was a few draining problems as well as slow greens. Definitely returning for another round considering the pricing is so cheap for how nice it is.

Beautiful golf in a beautiful place

For the last ten years I have looked forward to our visit to the Boone/Banner Elk region of North Carolina. I was lucky enough to find and play Boone GC in my initial visit to the area so that I knew to make it a regular place to play. The course reminds me of my Private golf club enjoyment in all ways. The staff is wonderful and accommodating to make your experience a wonderful one. The course conditions are always top notch. The layout is playable, enjoyable and skill testing for all level golfers.
