Mountaintop Golf & Lake Club

About Mountaintop Golf & Lake Club

Perched in the Blue Ridge Mountains at over 4,000 feet elevation, this Cashiers layout delivers the kind of mountain golf that makes you forget about whatever resort course you played yesterday. The routing takes full advantage of the dramatic topography, with several holes offering breathtaking views across the valley while challenging you with elevation changes that can turn a well-struck 7-iron into a mishit wedge if you misread the lies. What sets this course apart from other High Country tracks is how walkable it remains despite the mountain setting, the holes flow naturally without the punishing climbs that plague many elevated courses. The 4.6 Google rating from nearly 70 reviews tells you this isn't some hidden gem that only locals know about, but rather a consistently solid mountain experience that delivers on its promises. At this altitude, the ball flies differently and the mountain air keeps you cool even in summer, making it a perfect escape from the sweltering heat of lower elevations. The fact that walking is encouraged rather than merely tolerated speaks to thoughtful design that respects the natural contours rather than fighting them.
