Golf
A classic Cashiers course revived by A MODERN VISIONARY.
As challenging as it is inspiring, High Hampton’s new 18-hole course celebrates the exhilarating play and personality of classic high-country golf. Surrounded by epic mountain views, natural character and thrilling contours, the course was thoughtfully and thoroughly reimagined as a par-71 championship course by acclaimed designer Tom Fazio. A Carolina-native, Fazio’s dramatic design honors the history and charm of our course while refining play with more modern greens, fairways and features. Notable characteristics include the deep green bent grasses that stretch from tees to greens, as well as at least 5 sets of tee boxes — ranging from 7,000 to 4,500 yards — that ensure fun and challenging play for all ages and skill levels.
