Best Summer Golf Destinations: The South

6. Linville Golf Club/Eseeola Lodge, N.C.; 828-733-4363, eseeola.com

Public access at Linville is limited to guests of the Eseeola Lodge, but it’s well worth the splurge to check out the eye-candy afforded at this 1924 Donald Ross design, situated in the Blue Ridge Mountains an hour northeast of Asheville. Trout-filled Grandmother Creek affects play on 14 holes, including at the signature 472-yard, par-4 third, where it must be carried to find the green.
