🌿 Championship Pedigree in a Scenic Setting

Black Mountain first opened in 2007 and quickly rose to international fame. Designed by Phil Ryan of Pacific Coast Design, the course now features three 9-hole layouts: East, West, and North. The original 18-hole combination (East & West) stretches over 7,300 yards from the back tees and has hosted major tournaments including the European Tour, Asian Tour, and Royal Trophy.

The layout is known for its elevation changes, bold bunkering, fast greens, and water hazards that reward smart strategy and punishes sloppy execution. Fairways roll gently through valleys and along rocky ridges, making use of the area’s natural contours and beauty. With multiple tee boxes, the course is playable for most golfers – but low to mid-handicappers will get the most out of this championship design.

⛳️ Signature Holes at Black Mountain

Every hole at Black Mountain has character, but a few stand above the rest for their strategy, beauty, and photo ops:

🏋️ Hole 6 (Par 5) – One of the most dramatic risk-reward holes on the course. A long tee shot sets up the option to reach the green in two, but water short and right punishes any mishits. A tournament favorite.

🏋️ Hole 11 (Par 3) – This downhill beauty is set against a backdrop of mountains and water. Precision and nerve are needed off the tee, especially when the wind picks up.

🏋️ Hole 18 (Par 4) – A strong finishing hole. The drive must avoid water left and bunkers right, while the approach shot plays into a green framed by water and deep run-offs. A grand finale for any round.

The North Course, added later, features more elevation and tighter landing zones. It’s often combined for 27-hole experiences or used by repeat visitors looking for added challenge.

☕ Facilities That Go Beyond Golf

Black Mountain isn’t just about world-class golf – it’s a full-service destination for travelers, families, and serious golf fans alike:

🏨 Modern Clubhouse – Overlooks the 18th green and offers spacious locker rooms, a fine dining restaurant, and panoramic views of the surrounding hills.

🍽️ Dining – Enjoy Thai and international cuisine at the clubhouse restaurant, or relax with a drink post-round on the terrace.

🎓 Golf Academy – Featuring indoor simulators, PGA-certified coaching, and a driving range with natural grass bays.

🏊 Water Park – A unique bonus for families. Waterslides, a lazy river, and splash zones make this a great stop for golfers traveling with kids.

🏡 On-Site Villas – Stay-and-play options available with luxury villas just a short walk or cart ride from the course.
