About the course
This course is nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The layout begins along the Elk River and winds its way gently through creeks, brooks, ponds, and forest to create a true masterpiece of golf. Its front nine holes are wide open, but its back nine holes were built on mountainous terrain. Water hazards come into play on eight holes. The greens are fast and sloped, and the fairways are narrow. "Golf Digest" rated this as the 19th "Best in State" course for 1995-96, and the 20th best for 1997-98.
