Not the Boone of Okd

Prices have gone up I get that everything is more expensive but the course isn’t in the kind of conditions that warranted the price to play. Ranger is a joke as a single I expect to wait but every hole? Was hit into multiple times couldn’t look for errant shots as I would be hit. Unless something changes or I find a super deal I will probably not be back for some time, and that is a shame as this is by far my favorite course in the mountains

Great fall golf

Played for the first time and loved it, wish I could make it again before they close for the season Nov 8. Extremely well maintained, variety of difficulty, friendly staff and good pace. Real nice gps carts (a recent addition I believe) with the map showing no-cart zones. The Par 3s killed me, so hope you have better luck. Slopes add a nice challenge for sure. Can't beat the setting, nor the value. Highly recommend.

Love this Ellis Maples design!

Boone GC is a "must play" course if you're in the area. What a gem of a course! I drove 2 hours one way to play the course and it's well worth the drive.
Even though it's getting close to the end of the season, the course was in primo conditions. Fairways were lush, greens smooth and true, and my playing partners were awesome.
Kudos to all the staff for making Boone GC such a great place to play!

1st timers in Boone, NC

The weather was perfect the course conditions were above average for a public course this late in the season. The tee boxes were pretty beat up but playable, the greens were I'm very good shape and difficult.

Great golf course, bad service

The course was in great shape. Greens putted well. It is a shame that as good the course was, the staff was the opposite. At check in hardly a word. The starter told us not to be in a hurry on the front nine because they start on 1 and 10 and we couldn't play hole 10 until after the last group on the front nine teed off. On hole 6 a ranger stopped us and told us to pick up the pace because we had to tee off on hole 10. He was very rude. I guess when you are the only course with in 30 minutes customer service is not a big deal.

Still Great

Was able to sneak away to the mountains this last weekend and squeeze in another round at Boone Golf Club. It is one of the best rounds you can find. The course is in great shape, its fun to play and the people are great. Go play here as much as you can. The only negative is that the course is packed out on Saturdays, so the pace of play is usually a little on the slow side. Just be prepared for a 4.5 hour round or so if you are playing on the weekend.
