Opens for season May 13, 2022!
The public courts at the Sugar Mountain Tennis Club are spectacular – some of the best in the NC Blue Ridge Mountains. Six courts, meticulously maintained of fast-dry, Har-tru clay, are wildly popular. Men’s, women’s, and mixed play “friendlys’’ can be found every day of the week. Like our golf course next door, the tennis facilities are open to everyone, either on a pay as you go basis, or economical season pass options. And don’t forget the cool summer temps and the mountain views!
