Ok

We selected the course based on the four star rating. This isn’t a four star course. The views are nice but the course has a ways to go.

If you are in the area and are looking for an inexpensive round, this could be an option.

TEE BOXES WERE IN TERRIBLE SHAPE NOT A LOT OF GRASS AND SOME OF THE GREENS WERE VERY VERY Hairy and very slow to putt

The only reason to drive there and play this course is because they have a par 6 very challenging but other than that there are a lot of other courses in a whole lot better shape

Black Mountain Blues

A par 6 747 yd hole? How cool is that? The course was in great shape and had some wet areas due to the recent rain but the staff and course were great. We had a 4some walking in front of us and they let us play through so we finished 18 ( even played the par 6 twice) and will return. The greens were recently sanded but still ran OK. We will play this course again when staying near Asheville.

Good value but slow greens

First time playing this course and I enjoyed my round except for very slow and a few bumpy greens. Loved the views and the par 6 hole. I would recommend this course to friends.

Great Vistas

Black Mountain Golf Course was fun to play with many challenging holes and great vistas of the Black Mountain Range. However, pace of play was extremely slow for the first nine played in just under three hours. It did pick up on the back, as slow gofers only played nine holes. Pro shop was nothing to talk about and the staff was not friendly.

I would go back as the vistas was great and we love playing golf n the Carolina mountains.
