Overview: Highlands Country Club is a Donald Ross mountain course in Highlands, North Carolina, set at high elevation among wooded slopes and open mountain views. The course is listed at par 70 and about 6,255 yards, with a compact scale that makes the terrain and green contours central to the challenge. It is a classic example of golf shaped by a cool Appalachian setting rather than a flat inland site.
History: The club was founded in 1928 and the course is associated with Donald Ross. Later generations have maintained the historic routing while the surrounding Highlands landscape has matured into a defining part of the experience. The available course data supports the 1928 date, Ross attribution, par 70 and 6,255-yard length.
Did You Know? Highlands Country Club sits at roughly 4,000 feet above sea level. The elevation is not just a scenic detail; it changes the way the mountain air, slopes and seasonal conditions influence the course.
