Women's Golf Courses
Cliffs at Walnut Cove
The Cliffs at Walnut Cove serves as the home facility for the women's golf team at UNC Asheville. This Jack Nicklaus Signature Design opened in 2005 and was recognized by the PGA Tour as the only championship golf course to debut in tournament-ready condition. The course’s front nine holes wind across open fields of former farmlands, playing across soft ridges and featuring bunkers that create multiple risk and reward opportunities. The back nine plays into native woodland vegetation, crisscrossing over and around mountain streams. The course features five sets of tees, offering any player a perfect fit for a memorable round.
Country Club of Asheville
Designed by Donald Ross in 1928, its bent grass greens and fairways give way to stunning views of downtown Asheville and the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. This vertical track proves a formidable test with several uphill and downhill shots for golfers of all abilities to master. Sharpen your skills at the practice area featuring both putting and chipping greens as well as a 25 - tee driving range. Members take advantage of our active golf calendar of club-sponsored events and tournaments throughout the year.
Mountain Air Country Club
The Scott Pool designed 18-hole course spans 6,400 yards and has nine different sets of tees for all playing levels. As a very family-friendly community, our course is even U.S. Kid rated with appropriate tees and score cards. Sensational elevation changes make Mountain Air’s golf course like no other. With a 360 degree view of the Blue Ridge mountains, it’s no wonder LINKS MAGAZINE described it as “one of the most dramatic and naturally conceived courses in the country.”
Biltmore Forest Country Club
Founded in 1922, Biltmore Forest boasts a Donald Ross golf course maintained at the highest standard, elegant Clubhouse facility and appointments, fitness center, tennis facilities, pool and offers a wide variety of member activities. Our historic clubhouse and Donald Ross designed golf course are situated on 135 acres in the Town of Biltmore Forest, North Carolina.
The Grove Park Inn Resort
Donald Ross originally designed this historic course in 1926, and it was overhauled in 2001 to keep the same feel and spirit. The 6,400-yard championship course has been played by PGA stars Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan and Jack Nicklaus and even President Obama. Feel a sense of pride and accomplishment after navigating the tree-lined fairways and bent greens with amazing views of the Blue Ridge Mountains all around. Elevated tee boxes on the par-70 course provide perfect sight lines for each drive.
