Nicely maintained. Challenging shots, mostly wooded, well designed. Holes 3 and 7 appear to be the longest, both are mostly open (along a large power line alley). Had good weather the one time I played (11/29/14) and the course looked beautiful. Two tees on almost every hole and a few with multiple pins.

This course is only about a year old and it appears to be going through early growing pains. I'd give the course itself at least a 3.5 if the signage, map, and par info (no distances listed anywhere) were updated. Apparently, there are 12 HOLES NOW, although I did not have a chance to explore after playing the first 9.

This part of the park is a little scary - large graffiti on outer walls of (locked) bathrooms the Saturday we played. Park entrance hut looked like someone had crashed into it. The course itself, though, is very pretty.

Played all par 3's (only hole 3 is listed as 4), but impossible to determine proper pars without signage. Not sure which pin placements DGCR website distances are referring to. I was visiting from out of town, so it was difficult to read the course on a first-visit; seems like a great place to play if you're more familiar with the layout and course construction progress (new pins and holes).

Nice simple layout
Mix of wooded and open shots
Convenience

I heard about this new course recently and wanted to check it out. Moving to Hendersonville from Charlotte, I was surprised by the lack of course options in the Asheville area. Richmond Hill is stellar but there are no other legit courses nearby. This little 9 hole course was a breath of fresh air. 4 holes are very open and 5 are heavily wooded. This combined with the mixture of shots provide a nice quick round. No holes are extremely long but a few are probably pushing 300.' The finish throwing right at the lake is a nice touch. Park near the bathrooms and the first hole hugs the road you just drove in on. Park only open 8am-8pm

Give this one a try, especially if you live south of Asheville.

Course is in a nice park setting next to beautiful Lake Julian. This course was designed by a professional player so each hole offers a unique challenge. The flow is good with elevation coming into play. Wooded & open holes. Straight shots with some lefts & rights mixed in. Large benches on holes #5 through #9 & #11. Clean bathrooms & water available. Lots of parking. Friendly park staff. Large gazebo with picnic benches. Fairly easy to navigate but take a map the first time. Only 12 holes means a pretty quick round. Some OB & Mandos in play.

Dirt tee pads are rough & uneven. No tee signs. Loose branches & tree limbs are stacked up along the sides of some fairways. Next tee signs are needed on certain holes to ease navigation. ***Most of these 'cons' will probably be fixed later as this is a brand new course.

Alternate tee pads on holes 1, 5, 6, 9, 10 & 11. Alternate pin locations on holes 3, 8, 10 & 12. With the lake behind the basket on the downhill #12 makes a beautiful yet menacing finishing hole! It's great to have another course in between Asheville & Hendersonville. This will become my new 'local' course.
