Omni Grove Park Inn

This was our first time playing this course. Loved it! Beautiful, the wildlife was unbelievable!

Played as a single on 12/28 and paired with another single and a couple from out of town. The greens were typical Donald Ross, don’t get above the hole and super fast with deceptive breaks. Sadly, many greens were bumpy due to people not fixing their ball marks and I had several putts knocked off line.

Fairways were okay for the time of year, and the rough was manageable. I happened to find 4 bunkers during my round, and they had not been raked. I’m a pretty good bunker player but it’s hard to get up and down out of a footprint.

Glad that I was able to play on a hot deal but it wasn’t that great because of the conditions. I suggest playing Broadmoor instead.

Grove Park is one of my favorite courses in WNC. Challenging Donald Ross layout, great course conditions and friendly staff. I’m usually a single golfer but always manage to join up with other golfers. I’d play it 2-3 times a week if I could! Never disappointed.

When on hot deal worth playing otherwise it’s nowhere close to being worth the cost. Pace of play is hit or miss I’ve played in 2.5 and waited every shot in misery

Beautiful views with a private club feel. Super classy! Could have been in better condition but greens were fine.

loved the places, fairly complex but fair.

Bobby Jones used to play here.

Thursday at noon tee time, it was an overcast day and no one was on the course so lucky me. Course is in great shape. Not very long, great par 3’s (on the front 9, back nine are ok) and short par 5’s that are very scoreable. All the classic Donald Ross features are present ( blind tee shots, extreme uphill/downhill approaches, really tricky greens with lots of undulation.) The routing of the course is very unique, it sort of takes you all over the place. I mention this because I walked and it was a little tough to try and find the next hole, but definitely wouldn’t be a problem if you take a cart. Not a ton of holes where you can hit driver.

When you see a hot deal tee time I highly suggest getting it. This course is a little over priced at rack rate. However at under 100 it’s worth it.

Conditions were great as well as the views. Staff was very friendly. Also a great spot for a drink over looking course and sunset up at the hotel. Played for my second time with two friends who both immensely enjoyed their rounds. Will be back.

I have played thus course for years, Always enjoy it!

First time playing this course. Also the last time I’ll play it. Omni is VERY PROUD of this layout. For $165, you get no range, limited practice putting greens, average boring layout, and sandy greens. Most of Donald Ross courses are wonderful, this one isn’t. What a waste of time and money.

Loved this golf course . Pace of play excellent . Greens very fast.
