The Asheville Municipal golf course was severely damaged by the storms and floods of Tropical Storm Helene. The front 9 holes were destroyed with many trees and creating damage across the course. The back 9 holes were re-opened for play within a month, but the course awaits federal and state funding to begin a new rebuilding project that will bring the Donald Ross designed course back playing condition.

Renovations that were completed, Summer 2024

When Topical Storm Helene hit, the course has never looked so good. A more than $3,000,000 capital improvement project was in its final stages of completion. This renovation project was funded by the City of Asheville, Explore Asheville and a number of smaller grants and donations. It was the most significant capital improvement project at the Asheville Municipal Golf Course since it was built.  The project was managed and executed by Commonwealth Golf on behalf of the City.
