Private Golf
Blowing Rock Country Club-To play here you'll have to join, or join a member on the first tee. Diminutive at 6,000 yards, the Donald Ross design (revision by Tom Jackson), is immaculate.
Hound Ears-Blended into the natural contours of the valley's streams and rolling terrain, our Hound Ears golf course challenges the casual, as well as the serious player. If nature designed our course for beauty, we designed it for challenge. Some of our holes demand clear-cut skills. "It's an enjoyable course," says our Pro. " Yet it requires a lot of accuracy." We invite you to take a Virtual Tour of all 18 holes by visiting our web site at www.houndears.com/houndears6.htm or contact us at 828-963-4321 for additional information.
Linville Golf Club-Understated elegance. 1926 Donald Ross design mountain benchmark. Private membership integrates guests of the Eseeola Lodge seamlessly onto tee sheet. New irrigation system, new tee boxes and subtle refinements implemented by architect Bobby Weed rocket the old club into the 21st century without sacrifice of the style and grace held dear by traditionalists.
