A Nod To

Ross’s Vision

With a legacy dating back to 1926 when famed golf architect Donald Ross chose an old dairy farm as the perfect setting for his “Carolina 9” course, the foundation of the Waynesville Inn & Golf Club has always been one of understated excellence. The 165-acre historic property is now home to 18-holes of breathtaking golf, 72 well-appointed guest rooms, 6,000 square of event space, a picturesque Event Lawn and dining concepts that expertly complement any occasion. Members and guests, alike, can expect state-of-the-art facilities and amenities encapsulated within a legacy as timeless as the surrounding mountainscape.

Our Past | A Look Back

For the next 90 years, the course and property provided a casual and relaxed atmosphere in the mountains of Western North Carolina and the course has hosted many PGA legends from Sam Snead, Chi-Chi Rodriquez, and Arnold Palmer. Today, this remains an ideal setting for a one-of-a-kind golf and hospitality destination.

Our Present | Preserving Our Legacy

In partnership with Bobby Weed Golf Design, we are fully renovating the golf course while preserving the history of the original Donald Ross design. Weed, who has generational family ties to Waynesville that date back more than 100 years, as well as a deep professional footprint throughout the Carolinas, envisions a challenging but fair course with modern appeal and design that is exciting for both the everyday golfer and the low handicapper.
