Grandfather Golf & Country Club sits in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Linville, North Carolina. The course was designed by Ellis Maples and opened in 1962. Fairways follow natural terrain through hardwood forests, rhododendron thickets, and mountain laurel. Elevation changes are significant, with several holes playing across valleys or along ridgelines. The layout includes multiple streams that come into play, notably on the 3rd, 7th, and 13th holes. Greens are bentgrass, and many are elevated or tilted, requiring precise approach shots. The course is bordered by Grandfather Mountain and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The club maintains a private membership, and the clubhouse dates from the original development. The surrounding area includes the Linville community, which was established in the late 1800s as a mountain resort town.
