When Anderson Creek Golf Club first opened in 2001 it was immediately recognized as the "Best New Golf Course in North Carolina." The course was designed by 1997 PGA Championship winner Davis Love III, it was his first signature design in North Carolina. It has a traditional layout that epitomizes golf in the Carolina Sandhills. The layout features rolling emerald fairways lined with towering pines and undulating greens bordered by large roll-off areas, a tribute to the classic Donald Ross designs that are prevalent in the Sandhills. The challenging golf course has tricky doglegs and there are a variety of elevation changes throughout. Water comes into play on a few holes at Anderson Creek Golf Club, most memorably though on the par-3 fourth, which demands a carry over a large lake. Strategically placed bunkers also lurk along the greensides.

Anderson Creek - Always a relaxing, yet challenging experiencing

Relaxing. Why? During the week, I have experienced no delays or slow play. We turned 18 in a little over 3 1/2 hours. Challenging. If you are out of the fairway, you will pay the price.

The course was in good shape for these current drought conditions. They were watering mid afternoon, keeping the greens in nice condition.

I would play this course more often if it weren’t a hour away. Great bar and restaurant area with good food and beverage specials. I highly recommend this course and the facilities. .

Firm Fairways and Greens

This is a good layout and I have been here several times in the past, but this visit the course conditions were a little rough. Fairways need some TLC, greens are pretty good and pretty firm and fast. Tee boxes are good. Staff is great and value is worth it. They need some rain bad. I hope they get some grass growing a little thicker on those fairways.

Anderson Creek

Aweful course. They decided to aerate the greens a the day before and didn’t tell us when we checked in. Looks like it could be a nice place but currently I wouldn’t waste me time.

Anderson Creek Golf Course

Great value. A little far from home for daily play, but well worth a 50 minute drive from Southwest Wake County. During the week, you can turn 18 in less than 4 hours. Middle of a drought, course was fast.

Course needs work

The greens, although fast and smooth, had very poor grass coverage.

The fairways were very dry and cut extremely short.

I was planning on 18 holes, but left after 9 because it just wasn't fun.

Same course, fairways and greens still a bit dormant, super tight lies and wobbly greens. Good value at $42 to ride. Super slow play today.
