Fairways could use some work

Greens were in fairly good shape with some bad spots. Lots of fairway divots. Seems to be still under repair from the Hurricane. Only 9 holes are open.

Overpriced, no wait I mean way overpriced

No driving range. No GPS on carts. No beverage carts. Minimal food & only 1 restroom for each gender. What's with all the piles of dead grass all over the fairways? Did I mention there is only one 9 open, which you have to repeat if you mistakenly signed up for 18. They said it was because of storm damage. Wasn't the big storm a year ago?

Great Course

I enjoyed my round at Black Mountain. Even with all of the rain, the course back nine was in great shape. They are working hard to get the repairs made to reopen the front nine after Hurricane Helene.

Pitiful

Hurricane Helene caused damage but in a year’s time they only have the back nine open. The conditions are fair at best. The fairways are way too long and the tee boxes look terrible. I hope they get their act together

Great course

Played the back 9 twice today as the front is still closed due to the hurricane last year. Given what this area went through I am impressed beyond belief that they are open and that the course is in decent shape. Is it perfect? No. It’s is playable especially after all the damage. Absolutely. I will be playing here regularly now and am looking forward to the front 9 opening.

Love this local gem

Great course, beautiful scenery, and some fun holes. Obviously the hurricane did some damage, but they’ve done a great job getting this course back to playing shape. Still some work to do, but I’ll continue playing here. It makes for a great afternoon.

Thankful

Black Mountain has always been a favorite course of mine. I was heartbroken by the damage it sustained in Hurricane Helene. So thankful that at least 9 holes are open again.

They are back !

After a long closure from storm in Sept the back 9 is open. Love the course. Not in its best shape , but glad to have it back open. A few funky holes but still enjoyable round. Front 9 should be back open this fall.

Half course closed

Would have been nice to know that half the course was closed prior to driving two hours to play what was described as an 18 hole course!!! Very disappointing!!!

Not ready for prime time

Having just reopened (back 9 only) following hurricane Helene, I expected the course conditions (especially the greens) to be in much better after 9 months of “rest.” Apparently, the maintenance facility took the biggest hit and most of the course maintenance equipment was lost. As a result, the course is pretty overgrown with a couple of fairways invisible from the tees due to the high underbrush. The greens were closely-cut but were very untrue due to numerous imperfections that will require aerating and top-dressing to overcome. My biggest complaint is that that should have been done the month before reopening. But, I understand that with no revenue stream, it’s hard to pay for maintenance and materials. All that being said, I wouldn’t pay asking price to play here again, but a $25 HotDeal may be a reasonable price to pay.
