Lake at Carolina Trace Country Club

Both courses are in excellent condition. RTJ really tests your skills with some tough bunkering.

The Lake course is beautiful with well managed fairways and greens. There are many scenic photo ops to be taken from the tee boxes. I’ll be playing this course again..

Carolina trace country club has the perfect conditions for a terrific Golf day to happen. fairways were perfect , greens in great shape and the staff at the pro shop as well as the grill upstairs were outstanding. It’s worth the drive to experience this golfing community.

Course in great condition. Don't let the wide fairways lull you into a lack of focus on the tee box. Greens are large and relentless. Enjoy your round!!

It was the first time playing the course and we were all very impressed. The pace of play was as very good especially considering that it was a Sunday. It’s a beautiful layout, well maintained and the staff was quite friendly and helpful. An overall excellent experience. Highly recommended.

Looked at several options around Pinehurst, all looked pretty worn due to lack of rain. Carolina Trace Lakes course was in pretty darn good shape. Greens brutally fast but played true, bunkers strategically positioned and I used several both ring side and down the fairway. Lots of shape and elevation changes made for a fun afternoon. I would definitely suggest this club. Staff were awesome carts were supercharged in a NASCAR kind of way. I wouldn’t take my usual work colleague/playing partner as he’d kill us inside 4 holes. Looking forward to going back one day and play the other course.

The Carolina Trace Lake course is super underrated considering it’s competition in the surrounding areas. The layout is fantastic and the conditions are top tier. Best bang for your buck!! Thanks again!!

Course is fabulous. Always in great shape. Greens were 12..girl in shop super nice unlike most there. Bar and grill shut. place is weird but course is awesome. Superintendent is fabulous.

Greens fees are ridiculous for this course. The Pro Shop snack bar was atrocious, old hot dogs and a very limited selection of drinks and snacks, that were equally atrociously priced. I’m not sure this would ever be a place I would return to or recommend. They need to recognize it is by no means a special course but the pricing is completely ridiculous

This course is always in excellent condition. I’ve played both the Lake and Creek course and struggle to say which wins. I’ll give a slight nod to the Lake course due to the views. Both courses have fantastic layouts that don’t punish you a ton for going for it. However trouble is placed strategically to still make you think. Course doesn’t play exceptionally long, however still hard to score. Greens read true and fairly straight with only a couple holes with a lot of break.

This was my third time playing the course but certainly not my last!

This place is phenomenal! Impeccably maintained and not for the faint of heart. This is an extremely fun and challenging course. I’m not a member yet but hope to be some day as the rate and initiation is very doable compared to some. I played the Lake course twice and looking forward to playing the more challenging Creek next! Bring an extra sleeve or two. You might need it. Pro shop is top notch! As are the staff. Only one thing I’d change is the gas carts and they didn’t have much for food options. That being said, give this place a go! You will not be disappointed!

It’s a fun course to play once or twice but it’s definitely not an amazing course for the price point. It’s a rather expensive round for just a decent course not amazing by any means.

This course had a wonderful layout and excellent course conditions which made for a great day of golf. Easily one of the premier courses in the area!

Very nice course. I’ve lived in Sanford for about 8 years but never played here. I was not disappointed. Will definitely be playing here more often.
