Well, the Waynesville Inn and Golf Club has recently been renovated, and it's a great place for a mountain weekend golfing experience.
[smooth music] - The Waynesville Inn and Golf Club is a private golf club with a historic inn on site.
We have a sprawling campus here with multiple buildings and a golf course that was built by Donald Ross in 1926, and was recently fully renovated.
So what we offer here at Waynesville is we're a newly Hilton branded hotel, and if you stay here on property, that'll get you access to the golf course, all the dining, our fitness, and all of the social aspects here at the club.
- The golf course in and of itself was a transformed 27 hole layout into a really good 18 holes.
We partnered with Bobby Weed and Bobby Weed Golf Design to really create a good atmosphere out here.
The food and beverage, the pool, the fitness center, we've got great amenities here when guests are staying with us, but yeah, the course is what drives people here.
- Keeping Donald Ross's vision alive was really important to us, and really important to Bobby as he was redesigning.
Everyone that plays that front nine out there knows you can tell it was a Donald Ross design, and then what Bobby's done to the back nine is beautiful, matches it, and the vistas are absolutely gorgeous, so we really have something special going on here in Western North Carolina - With what we have going on at the Inn, the live music, the events that we have, golf related or social related, it's a fun, warm, welcoming place to gather, to hang out, relax here.
We want you to feel like you're a part of something special.
- For me, I wanted a place that we could travel as a family, and everybody play golf, and kind of be in the mountains a little bit cooler, and this was really close to home, about an hour and a half away.
- When we're looking at a club, we really look at the whole package.
As a former golf professional, and a former college golfer, we really look at the course, and we love the golf course, first and foremost, and then secondary, you know, we're looking for a fun family atmosphere, and a place that we feel at home, and this is somewhere that we feel that could be our second home.
- We actually have 17 different room types.
We have kings with a balcony that overlook the course.
We also have two outlying buildings.
We've got our Brookside building, and then we also have our Golfview.
So the cottages, we have three of them.
They would be great for family reunions, because it allows you all to stay together, or if you are between all of our accommodations, it becomes a great central point for y'all to experience.
- So we have a lot of event space here on property.
This is just one, this is the Rotunda.
Below the Rotunda is the Watershed Tavern, that is more kind of like a sports bar feel, but it's also one of our two meeting spaces as well.
Dining options, so some of our most popular items are the Waynesville Burger, which has bacon jam on it.
That's a big hit, our chicken wings, and of course some of our fresh salads.
- I ordered the smash burger and potato salad.
The scenery is stunning here, and I love to hear the music.
It's just very pleasant here, very inviting, refreshing.
It's a nice little place to visit.
- We want an exclusive element to the property, but we want it to be approachable as well, hence why staying at The Inn if you're not a member is a very great option, 'cause it's a fun place to be.
- I mean, this property is truly a getaway.
I mean, whether you're a golfer or not, I mean, we have so much to offer here, and Western North Carolina is beautiful.
The weather's great, with being up here in the elevation, you have mountains everywhere you look.
We're very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
Downtown Waynesville is beautiful shops and restaurants, so it's truly a getaway for everyone in NC.
It's a playground for everybody.
- [Deborah] The Waynesville Inn and Golf Club is at 176 Country Club Drive in Waynesville.
