North Carolina is home to some of the nation's finest golf courses, designed by architects from Donald Ross to Tom Fazio, from Ellis Maples to Rees Jones. But golf resorts in North Carolina offer so much more than challenging and meticulously groomed courses. Many are also complemented by the luxurious accommodations, pampering spas, fine restaurants, boutique shops, nearby wineries and other amenities that elevate a golf vacation to an entirely new level.
Each room at The Golf Club at Ballantyne in Charlotte, for example, includes a Bose Radio II, a 10-foot ceiling and Egyptian cotton linens. Guests at Eseeola Lodge, next door to the Linville Golf Club, relax on private porches and soak up the cool, green mountains that surround them before a dinner of pan-seared trout plucked from nearby streams. Enjoy a champagne cruise at Greystone Inn in Lake Toxaway, treat yourself to one of the Grove Park Inn's "Heaven Series" spa treatments, or soak in a whirlpool at Sea Trail's Village Activity Center.
In North Carolina, it's not just about the golf.
