I Recommend This Course
Extremely well maintained course—fun for all levels
Thought yardage meant it would be too easy. Was wrong. Just a shorter course, but lots of fun hitting every shot in bag. Plenty of longer par 3’s and medium par 4’s you can play to your ability. Beautiful surroundings. Pace of play surprisingly quick for public course. Close to Banner Elk town and plenty of amenities nearby there and at Sugar Mountain. Would play again.
