The Pines at Elizabeth City

Course layout is great. This course has great potential to be a really great course but the greens are terrible and some tee boxes are really hard. Bunkers need raked and some have weeds growing out of them. If this course was well maintained, it could be a hidden gem of a course.

Course layout is very nice. Condition of course is very subpar. Bunkers growing grass, fairways in poor condition, but worst of all is the DEAD greens. Almost every green has no grass or very little grass. Never played a course with greens in conditions as bad as The Pines.

There was no staff member and building were locked up when I started my round. Staff member brought me a golf cart as I was walking off the 5th hole. Stated I wasn’t supposed to be able to get a 7am tee time.

Frustrating day

Hi,

I sent this email to the course.

Four of us played this past week. I was truly embarrassed to take my relatives from North Myrtle Beach to play. If you can't maintain the course, go ahead and shut it down or at least create temporary greens. Not only were the greens unplayable, sand traps full of grass and trash, your maintenance crew had not replaced many of the red tee box markers. Mower tire marks and blade scrapes are just a sign of not caring for the course.

I would be embarrassed to let golfers on the course.

Course is in terrible shape. It has been neglected for so long that it will probably take years to get it in shape. I don’t know if management doesn’t know what they’re doing or is unwilling to make the repairs to the course. I don’t think I will be playing here again.

The layout is nice with some challenging holes. The greens were in bad shape and in need of some serious work. The staff was very friendly and the food in the clubhouse is good and reasonably priced. The potential loss of the driving range to condominiums is an unfortunate situation and could affect the asthetics of the course.

This is not what you would expect from a. Middle of the country no where golf course, hazards laid out just right, forgiving but not all at the same time , fairway and tee boxes were awesome, it's still early in the season but the greens were a bit rough and not just weeds , could definitely get away with a minus 1 per hole to off set

Tee boxes and greens are in extremely bad condition

Sneaky tough even though it's not long because of the small, mushroomed greens...Plenty of water, bunkers, and trees to make you think out there! Still a great value for a decent layout and a quick round, but the ownership HAS TO put a little bit of time or money back into the course to fix the greens! Most of them weren't even puttable.

Greens were terrible like putting on bumpy concrete. They’ve been this way for quite a while.

The course would be such a great course if they would only do something with their greens. They are patchy, dead and hard as concrete.

The course is improving under the new ownership. Still need work on the greens and the bunkers. The layout is fun to play and the staff is great. Will definitely play again.

Some fairways not cut, greens have a lot of bad spots. Most hole positions where away from damaged greens. Decent course. Just needs some attention to greens and fairways. Also couldn't play one hole, Sprinklers came on while on tee box we hit had to run to pick up balls to avoid sprinklers. Water was puddling on green unable to put

Keep driving right past the pines to somewhere else. Anywhere you go north south east or west, you’re sure you get a much better value than this place. Layout is fun and challenging but uneven tee boxes, long fairways, bunkers mind as well not even be there and patchy unreceptive greens make the course very unenjoyable. The course has continuely raised greens fees and the conditions have steadily gone down hill. Travel 45 minutes any direction and pay the same or less for FAR better golf! Save your time and money, go elsewhere.

The fairways need trimming, the Greens need grass support, and the hole needs to be updated to accommodate the ball; most holes have not been redone in weeks.
