Had a top notch experience at Primland. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and professional. We were fortunate to essentially have the course to ourselves and it is a unique site lodged deep in the blue ridge mountains. Amazing mountain vistas and wildlife.

Highland course was immaculate. Played on 11-08 and the price was $150. The golf course has to be seen to be believed. Great vistas, incredible shot values, and greens that were rolling fast and true add up to a tremendous value. Move up a tee box from where you would normally play as the course has some tough driving holes. Nice pro shop and a sprawling dinner area with top-notch food. Overall, an experience not be missed if you are in the area. Difficult to get to the course on a crazy stretch of switchbacks but that just adds to the allure of the place.

The Highland Course at Primland demands accuracy off the tee — fairways are tight, and missing them often means dealing with steep slopes, thick rough, or worse. Elevation changes are constant and sometimes deceptive, making club selection tricky and adding pressure to every drive. Stray shots are punished, not just by distance lost, but by awkward lies and tough angles into firm, fast greens.
This isn’t a course you can fake your way through. Even short holes can bite if you’re out of position. The layout rewards precise play and good decision-making, especially on approaches where slopes around the greens can funnel a decent shot into trouble fast. Beautiful, yes — but it’s a test, bring some extra balls. 😎 Views are stunning and the resort / staff are fantastic.

Luxury amenities set on 12,000 pristine acres of Blue Ridge Mountain heaven. Set along the ridge atop the mountain, the Highlands course has some of the most breathtaking views you'll find anywhere.

Well run machine
Drop your clubs and everyone ushers you through the clubhouse, practice area right to first tee
Course was in excellent shape and weather in the mountains was 10 degrees cooler
Fun to play
Lunch at “smoker” is included but check what they have as ours was a bit heavy for golfiing-jalapeño brats or heavy sauced ribs
