Grassy Creek Golf & Country Club
2360 Swiss Pine Lake DrThis is the closest golf course to our place. It is a cozy course with plenty of views.
This course is cart path only, but the fairways are pretty narrow, so it's not a big walk. The views are so worth the effort, as it is in the shadow of Mt. Mitchell, the highest mountain east of the Mississippi. There is a great restaurant in the club house with good views as well.
