Omni Grove Park Inn

I’ve played this course twice and enjoyed the experience each time. Fairways are in great condition and even at a 8.5 stump, the greens were tough! If the green fees were $50-$75, I’d play this course 2-3 times a month. Even with a discount, it was $100, usually $150.

Course and staff were great. It was a little wet, cart path only day, but a beautiful day to play for the first time. I will say the Course was a good challenge with the hills and terrain. Harder than the courses I usually play. I truly enjoyed the play and the day. Will definitely play again next time I'm up in Asheville.

First class service, first class golf course. Fantastic conditions and tranquil setting. Course sits a beautiful Asheville neighborhood - worth the money.

Played 18 today in 5.5 hours. Backed up the entire 18. Every single tee box and green needs maintenance. Tons of unprepared pitch marks on the greens. They’ve also lost a few areas of a few greens.

Paid over $200 for weekend morning. Easily worst course I’ve ever played for a price near that.

Don’t be fooled by the sub-6,000 yardage on the card. Ross laid out this lush Golden Age course on the side of a mountain, making it play longer than imagined.

All of the par 5s play under 500 yards, but if you don’t hit the fairway off the tee you will be scrambling for a score. I thought the short par 4s were standouts, particularly the sixth and 13th (best green on the property).

Seemingly every hole provides views of the Blue Ridge mountains or the historic inn.

One of the most beautiful courses I have ever played. From the staff to the condition of the golf course, it is one of my favorite places to play and definitely recommend it!!

Fast putting surfaces. A few challenging false fronts and pin placements but an absolutely enjoyable round of golf. $175 is pretty steep but the conditions and pace of play were both outstanding.

Course beautiful and in great shape. Greens somewhat sloped and tough. Would definitely return

I really enjoyed this course. The layout is routed beautifully off the mountainside making great use of the elevations and property features. There is a good variety of long and short holes. The greens are great, with nice slopes, ridges, false fronts, and are tied into the surroundings. Most have a opening to run shots up but are protected through slopes or bunkers on one side or the other. Some nice dogleg holes are used and some pretty views of the mountains play into the experience. Although trees are located throughout, you never feel confined off the tee and you have plenty of room. A top-notch experience.

Very good course inaa very good condition. Soft greens and a few tricky

Title pretty much says it all. It's an ok course, but not even remotely close to being worth what they're charging. It's worth an $80 greens fee, max. It's a shame, because Asheville could really use a somewhat affordable public course close to town other than the muni.

You can’t go wrong with Donald Ross, but the lack of a range, slow greens (pm), inconsistent bunkers, and a high price means the value is less than it should be.

My two beefs are as follows. Some of the bunkers (including greenside) are Georgia clay. My sand wedge bounced on one hole and the second greenside made me did dig deep to clear a high lip. This course should have only ONE sand type. No excuses.

Next…and this has much to do with inconsiderate players, when you leave a ball mark on the green, fix the mark! I fixed 2 or 3 per hole in addition to my own.

At this green fee, the course should give out ball repair tools (probably 5 cents each) and encourage and remind players to repair the marks.

Pro shop said greens were 13 on the stimp. In the afternoon it’s more like 8. Donald Ross greens are designed to be fast but these were slow.

The layout is great. The course is fun with some memorable holes. And it’s quite beautiful.

Last comment…I paid $1300 to stay 2 hours nights. The guy I played with stayed elsewhere and was charged $5 less to play than me.

Treat your customers better than that Omni.
