Springdale Resort

Vacationing in the area so playing this course for the first time. Greens were slow but in excellent condition as were the fairways. Some of the tee boxes were a bit sparse (yellows) especially on the back nine. A challenging but fair course but as others have noted the back nine mountain holes were a bit more challenging than the front nine valley holes. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. GPS golf carts were spot on with distances compared to my rangefinder. Two suggestions: put some directional signage to golf shop from parking area as well as to #1 and #10 tees; if there was a comfort station on the front 9 I missed it. Hope to play again soon.

Have played this course on several occasions and decided to play it again because I had heard there was a new owner and that course conditions had improved. . I was cautiously optimistic but to say that I was shocked at the improvements would be an understatement. All I can say is Wow! All NEW: Clubhouse, restaurant, Pro Shop, cart paths, parking lot, Cart barn, putting greens, Carts with GPS, Bridges, and on and on and on. So happy that I am planning on bringing a group of 16-20 to play this fall. Course was in great shape. Hats off to the new ownership. You have done an outstanding job.

A great course with alot of variation in the layout. Tough holes and gettable holes alike! The facilities are on the level of a higher end club and the setting is incredible. The driving range is small but that's the only real negative thing i can say. Its not a cheap round but a great place to try out if you haven't yet. I am not sure what other reviews are referring to in the collar issues..its fescue around the greens which is tough but it was in great shape. The greens were not too fast as expected for bent grass in the summer but i bet they get quick in the fall! Had a blast!

This mountain resort course was a pleasant surprise. Close to Asheville, NC but a bit of a drive to a remote, small town location. As a resort course, it's a little more expensive than some others but once you arrive you'll see why. The clubhouse and restaurant facilities are new and grand, the course is very well kept and lush. In an area that was devastated by flooding many years ago, the owner has made major investment in the course and facilities. Virtually everything is new here from the buildings to the bridges, fairways and bunkers (though some cart paths are still in the process of being updated and a bit rough). Stately homes with beautiful landscaping and views surround the course but are far back from the area of play. Brand new carts with GPS, complimentary towels and water are a nice touch. The confidence-building front 9 is relatively open with few trees and little elevation, but the back is far more challenging with big uphill and downhill pins, dense trees, forced carries, water and doglegs. Several scenic creeks running through the property add to the ambiance. Well-maintained white sand bunkers were raked and in perfect shape even after a rain. Greens were slower than I'm used to but in perfect shape and many featured challenging contours. As some have noted/complained, some holes are ringed by thick St. Augustine grass that requires you to chip on a missed green rather than putt, which I didn't mind. I played 18 then went around again because I enjoyed it so much, and 36 is something that I haven't done in years. Great amenities, challenging elevations and mountain views from many holes make this worth the trip.

We were on our way to Myrtle Beach from NW Indiana. Found Springdale and was very happy with it. It’s a challenging mountain course with beautiful views.

We can’t say enough about how pleasant the staff was from start to finish. We were accommodated for breakfast since didn’t pass a restaurant on the way in. The pro shop, starter and rangers each made the experience enjoyable

Just a big fat WOW. The staff, layout of the course, nature, even the carts! This course is worth the trip.

Fantastic course set in beautiful area. Staff were friendly and helpful, good driving range, putting and chipping for warmup

Definitely coming back!

Course is in beautiful shape. Staff is incredibly friendly. Can’t wait to go back!

Greens and fringes not in best condition; cart path's need replacing

First time playing here. Stopped by for 18 holes while traveling for business. Michael at the front desk (and the rest of the staff) were very friendly and a pleasure to speak with. The course was in good condition and pretty views with the elevation changes. Will definitely go back if/when I am in town.

New owner is making consequential choices for the better. Picturesque, challenging, good condition, great value!

Fairways and greens are in very good condition. Green fringes are very rough and cannot be putted from or over. Greens roll nicely but do not hold iron shots well. Layout has some interesting holes but overall is of average interest. Bunkers were not groomed and many had only one rake. Beautiful views from many spots on the course.

Have been playing there 3-4 years during the warmer months. Have done a great job with the new clubhouse and recovering from the floods in Aug 2021. Favorite course in western NC.
