Lake Lure Municipal Golf Course

Originally opened in 1927, the course was built in the “GOLDEN AGE” of golf course design. Donald Ross is said to have designed the original 18-hole layout. Due to the financial struggles of the late 1920’s only the existing 9 holes were completed. 

The log cabin style clubhouse was built as a WPA project in the mid-1930’s and survives today as another reminder of times past.
