Bright's Creek

This place is special. One of the last tranquil private clubs in the area. You get what you pay for here that's for sure!

Beautiful golf course! Browns are very nicely maintained in. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Dedicated pickleball courts are hard to find in the area but Brights Creek has two beautiful ones! We have met a lot of fun people and enjoy the social aspects of the club as well. This is a hidden gem for sure!

We heard so much praise about this place before we visited & it did not disappoint. We booked at a home on Chestertown Dr and had a great stay. My husband really enjoyed how beautiful his golf experience was. The staff are so kind & accommodating. We got lunch once at their restaurant. Everyone loved their food. My burger was quite burnt, however. The fries were good though. The amenities are all very thought through. We enjoyed the 10 minute hike we had up to a waterfall that was nearby. It was so peaceful and nice. We actually came for a destination wedding! Not sure how many weddings they do, but we had a great time. Beautiful wedding & no complaints as a guest. Be aware however that I have AT&T and had no signal my whole stay. I relied on WiFi.

I have played Bright's Creek each of the last two years. The first year I played the course it was in premiere condition and was a fantastic experience. I have noticed a bit of a decline in maintenance and course conditions in the last year. There are a number of holes that have fairway and overgrown rough issues. This is not the easiest course to maintain as it is on the side of a mountain but the conditions are not five star quality. That said, this is one of the more fun Tom Fazio layouts you can play. There are a number of other courses in Asheville that are in better condition in the summer of 2017. The nice bentgrass greens are appealing but they will likely suffer during the hotter summer months. As one of the better courses to play in the mountains, I hope the conditions improve.

Brian Stewart and his staff are top notch. Gorgeous Fazio design with plenty of tee options to challenge any player. Set in an a quiet mountain area where all manner of wildlife can be admired. Highly recommended.
