Description

The only course on Lake James, Marion Lake Club rides rolling lakeside terrain with long views toward Linville Gorge and Shortoff Mountain. Breeden's routing favors playability over punishment, using gentle doglegs and open fronts to keep the round moving. Bentgrass greens and Bermuda fairways provide a classic Carolina surface blend that stays playable nearly year-round. From the back tees it plays just over 6,300 yards, but the lake breezes and changing elevations keep club selection interesting. A small practice range and putting green sit steps from the clubhouse, making it an easy warm-up before the first tee.

Greens were recovering from being punched a couple weeks prior. Not much fluff in the fairways. Staff seemed friendly. I don’t like that holes 13 & 14 share the same fairway. Restaurant wasn’t open when we played. The sodas are on the smaller side and a little over priced. Nice course with some great views of Lake James on the back 9. Don’t think it was worth the money for early in the year. Played 3/30/24. Some blind shots so you need to be careful. We were almost hit twice on the last hole. Once at the tee box then up next to the green.

Greens were green and rolled great. Rest of course was in good shape. Reason for my low star was pace of play was brutal. No Marshall/worker to check. Group of 20 year olds turned their 2 threesome group into a six some. They wouldn’t let people play through and held up play. Took extra hour than necessary. Not recommending this place to anyone.

We loved the course and even though there was a mix up with our tee time through a third-party booking, the golf pro worked with us as if we were members. We hit some balls first and the we started off on the back nine. Beautiful! So much history, loved the lake views. Plays a bit long for women and challenging but so worth it. We would play here again in a heartbeat!

It's not worth the money. I've played courses for less, that's better. All the fairways are on top of one another, and the layout is just not ideal. The practice range or warm-up range should be only irons. Hitting driver or 3 wood lands you into the first tee box fairway. Shots landed 10 ft from where I was on the first fairway. Rated two stars due to challenging slopes, which was fun.
