Changes
Major changes are taking place. They have already made a huge difference and they have just started. Going to be great in a couple years.
Better than last October
As a part-time NC resident. I make it to this course several times between Jun and Nov each year. The efforts made by the new management company are obvious on the course. The greens, although a bit on the slow side, are all lush and fairly true. All of the bunkers appeared to be well-groomed. With a few significant exceptions, the fairways have much more grass than last fall and the newly-sodded 16th fairway is a fantastic improvement. Heck, 16 is an all new hole with a pristine green and reimagined bunkers. Tee boxes and cartpaths still could use some work on many holes and some more tree work is needed to open up some tee shots, but there’s evidence everywhere of movement in the right direction. If you book on GolfNow and pay in advance, don’t be surprised when they charge you a $1 facility fee at check-in that they tell you goes directly towards course improvements.
We appreciate your review of our golf course and are glad to hear that you have noticed the efforts made by our new management company. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the slow greens and the need for improvements on some tee boxes and cart paths. Thank you for booking with us and for your support towards our course improvements.
Greens were really good.
Greens have been redone and are much better shape than the rest of the course. The fairways are playable but the rough is a mixture of weeds and grass. Course has a fun layout. Overall had a great time.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our business. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the rough. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the layout of the course and had a great time overall.
Renovations are looking great!
Lots of work has gone into rehabbing this course and it's paying off. Greens were in great shape, rolled true and with a nice, quicker pace than most other courses in the area. Bunkers are greatly improved. Many tees have been redone, flattened and sodden. Holes on the back that used to be sparse turf now have large areas of new sod that's growing in nicely.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Asheville Municipal Golf Course.
Renovations are amazing
I have been playing at Muni for about 5 years now and the new management company has made tremendous improvements in just the last 6 months. The greens roll really true and are getting better by the week. Love the fact that they are returning some of the course features to Donald Ross’s original design. New tee boxes, better fairways are also obvious improvements. The staff and the regulars are a pleasure to be around.
Hi, RG8696DEA885FB9D680F. Thank you so much for your feedback. We are glad you had enjoyed your time at Asheville Municipal Golf Course, and pride ourselves on delivering the best experience possible.

In the making
This course needs a lot of work. The good news is they are currently doing a lot of work. The improvements are fantastic and I’m excited they are breathing new life into a fun course.
Hi, u4146071! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Asheville Municipal Golf Course!
Awful
What fairways? The greens are nice. Pace of play was unbearably slow. Poorly managed and maintained course.
Hi, Andrewtsmith. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We understand your frustration with the construction projects underway. Please bear with us as we work diligently to make improvements. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Getting better
Nashville municipal golf course is making so many great changes, and things are getting better every day. The fairways are uneven, but the grass hasn’t fully come in yet. They are doing amazing work on all their tee boxes and some of their green complexes. I can’t wait to see the finished product. We were allowed to hit off of one of the redone tea boxes, which was amazing. Definitely worth a trip to the course. Kudos to all the staff on all the hard work.
Hello, James9720163. Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Asheville Municipal Golf Course.

We take customer feedback very seriously at our course. Please reach out to our team in the golf shop and tell us what's on your mind.
Better days ahead
First time back here in about a decade, and the other reviews are accurate, pretty rough shape. That being said it’s clear they’re working hard and it should be much improved in 6 months or so. The layout is GREAT and when they get conditions back on track this will be a must play; pause for now though
Hello, willpro. Thank you for visiting us at Asheville Municipal Golf Course and taking the time to write a review.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated so that we can improve your future experiences at our course. Thanks again for choosing us.
Don't waste your money
This is hands down the worst course I've ever played. Sure the staff was nice. But I'm showing up to play golf. Not make friends. None of the grass is a uniform length, there's mud pits every where. It's like they don't even have a grounds keeper. I wouldn't play this course if it was free.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon. Thank you for choosing Asheville Municipal Golf Course.
In the Right Direction
I know that for many golfer new to Muni they will say it is in bad shape, fairway rough or bare in place, traps well what can we say but no good, tee boxes rough. But for those of us that have played Muni for year (me sense 69) the improvements that are be done we can see what the course was like years ago. Have cut down many trees to give sun lite to fairways. Have redone 6-7 tee boxes so far and more to be done soon. Working on redoing bucker or getting rid of those that were not in the orginaly course layout.
I think that if you come back late summer or next year you will see the beginning of a course that Donald Ross would be proud of.
Hello u395899765, thank you for taking the time to review us, and for the 3 stars. We're sorry to hear the course may not have been in the best shape on the day of your round. We appreciate your feedback as we work to make any necessary improvements. Thank you for choosing to golf with us, and we look forward to seeing you again soon at Asheville Municipal Golf Course.
Great things coming
I played it muni yesterday. They have aerated the greens, but they ran pretty good. They are doing a lot of extensive work to the course right now, so some tea boxes were closed for renovations. Overall, the course is in decent shape, and I recommend it to anyone who’s looking to play. I’m looking forward to seeing the end. Results of all these amazing changes. Thanks to the staff for all their hard work.
Hello, James9720163. Thank you for visiting us at Asheville Municipal Golf Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Abandoned Course
I know the course is going to transformation, but it still looks and plays like an abandoned course. It has a very long way to go before I will never go back.
Hi u314163771836, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry your experience didn’t match your expectations. It was an uncommon instance and we’ll do better in the future. Please feel free to reach out to us with any further comments, concerns, or suggestions you wish to share. We would love to make things right if you give us another chance.
Under Repair
I love this course. It’s a muni and you get what you get at a public course. But the course is being worked on (and it needs it) so I won’t be back until next spring or maybe late fall at the earliest. Many temporary tees, lots of ground under repair, WAAY too many people crammed onto the course so it was a 5:30 hr round.
Staff is always great. Layout is fun. But it’s not ready for people to be golfing on it while they’re working. Again, it needed the work so I’m glad they are, but stay away for a couple of months.
Hi, Cole4303162! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Asheville Municipal Golf Course!
Shame on Asheville
How could Asheville let this course get to this horrible condition. Donald Ross would not want his name associated with this course in this condition. The cart paths are dangerous. There are no decent fairways. The greens were OK. It is amazing that so many people play. If there were other public options close by, this course would go out of business. Hopefully new management will restore course to something worthy of a Ross designation

Golf course starter is routinely rude and very unprofessional, and gives unwanted advice and opinions. This is not the first time he’s done this to myself and others…

Don’t Play Here
Absolutely the worst course in NC. Poorly managed and poorly kept. Do not waste your money playing at this sorry excuse of a golf course.
