Black Mountain Golf Club occupies a distinctive place in the record books — its par-6 17th hole, stretching over 700 yards, has long been recognized as one of the longest holes in golf anywhere in the world. That alone makes this course worth seeking out for the curious player, but the layout offers far more than a single curiosity. Laid out across the rolling foothills terrain of the Blue Ridge Mountains, it plays through a landscape shaped by elevation change and dense Carolina hardwoods, with the surrounding ridgelines a constant presence on the horizon.
Black Mountain is a small, unhurried town in the Swannanoa Valley just east of Asheville — one of western North Carolina's most beloved corners, where the mountains soften into something genuinely livable. Golf in this part of the state rewards shotmakers who can manage uneven lies and read the way mountain air affects ball flight.
At par 71, the card plays slightly shorter than a standard layout, though that par-6 alone guarantees the overall yardage is anything but modest. This is the kind of course that lingers in the memory more for its personality than its polish.
