Golf

Located on the north end of Lake Lure, Rumbling Bald is unusual in being a Western North Carolina multi-course golf resort. Rumbling Bald is an hour's drive from Asheville NC and Hendersonville NC and about half an hour from Black Mountain NC. It features two 18-hole layouts: W.B. Lewis-designed Bald Mountain. Movie buffs will enjoy the 16th green, the backdrop of a scene in the movie “Dirty Dancing.” Elevation changes, particularly on the back, offer a beguiling mix of uphill and downhill shots amid a variety of doglegs and straight fairways.

Second, Dan Maples-designed Apple Valley. Maples estimated that 75% of all shots at Apple Valley are either level or downhill, virtually unheard for a mountain course.
