About Sapphire National Golf Club

Sapphire National Golf Club in Sapphire, North Carolina is one of the most spectacular mountain courses in the Southeast, carved through the Blue Ridge at an elevation exceeding 3,500 feet near the Cashiers-Highlands resort plateau. Designed by Ron Garl, the 18-hole layout takes full advantage of the dramatic Appalachian terrain, delivering panoramic views of the surrounding peaks, deep gorges, and forested ridgelines on virtually every hole. Elevation changes of 200 feet or more between tees and greens demand careful club selection and a precise mountain-course strategy. The course is known for its immaculate conditioning, pristine mountain setting, and an overall experience that ranks among Western North Carolina's finest. Sapphire National serves as the flagship golf experience in the Cashiers-Sapphire resort community.

History

Sapphire National Golf Club was designed by Ron Garl and opened in the 1990s as part of the upscale Sapphire resort community development near Cashiers. Garl's design embraced the challenging mountain terrain rather than fighting it, resulting in a course that is both visually stunning and strategically demanding. The club quickly established itself as a marquee mountain golf destination in the Southeast.

Mountain golf enthusiasts and Cashiers-area visitors seeking a world-class Blue Ridge course experience with breathtaking scenery.
