Gillespie Golf Club

Great value for the money. Course and greens were in great shape. I feel they over booked based on pace of play. It’s an easier course which is great for average to beginners however a lot of beginners were out there and it bogged down the pace of play.

Overall though great value!

A challenging compact course that is more difficult than it looks on paper. A placement course, the greens are a little tricky to get close to the flag if you are in the wrong position.

Gillespie Golf Course, a 9-hole layout with two sets of tees, is a gem in the heart of Greensboro.

Bob Brooks and his staff are to be commended for making improvements in playing conditions, even with a municipal course budget.

The Gillespie Park staff makes you feel welcome, whether you're a first timer or a returning player like me.

I initially played Gillespie Golf Course over 20 years ago. I fell in love with the layout immediately!

Gillespie features small greens, with drop off on both sides, capturing even the slightest errant shot.

The greens were in the best shape EVER since I have been playing Gillespie!

Don't go by total distance for the holes and course. Gillespie is a shot-makers' course. The yardage book provided in the pro shop should be your "go to" guide.

I played in a weekday at mid-morning. As a twosome, our pace was just over 4 hours for 18 holes, riding in a cart.

Other courses in the area charge much more than Gillespie Park for green fees. Come play this hidden gem several times.

Do take a look at the mural and what it represents.... trailblazers who fought for the right, and won, to include who wanted to play golf at Gillespie.

Kudos to Gillespie and the city of Greensboro for their foresight to continually fund improvements for the facility.

As I was leaving the course after my round, several First Tee participants were getting ready to play.

They are our future in the game. Support First Tee (I have). Pay it forward to the next generation.

Hooray for Gillespie!

Great public course in the city, 9 tee boxes with two different tee off spots making for 18 hole round. Friendly staff and great price.

Best golf bang for the buck in the area. Fairways in good shape; greens are awesome.

Tee to green was maintained very well. Multiple tee boxes make it a different course on the back 9. The tips played just over 6400 for a nice round

This is a fantastic place to play 9 or 18. Multiple tees for front and back nine. Tee boxes, fairways and bunkers in great condition. Greens rolled excellent!!. Blue tees can play almost 6500 yards, This was a great find on my travels.

if I’m gonna spend four hours at a course, that’s one of the bare minimum requirements. Cell phone chargers must work. I have a lot going on in my life and my cell phone dying while I’m out here is not something I want to be concerned about.

The chargers that are on the carts used to work, but they do not.

Overall great course. Smaller driving range for practice as it only had spots for 6 or so golfers. I was able to hit a few practice balls even getting the last open space. The course was nice. A little confusing the second 9 as it’s the same hole but with different tee boxes. The only choke point was the turn when you had people coming from 9 to 10 and then those waiting to tee off on 1 as well. Overall though nice little course for the money.

Front nine was great, on the turn there was a golfer walking hit two balls off the tee and another rider behind him with his friend hitting two ball off the tee an I’m behind them, No Marshalls to regulate pace of play. I average 2 to 3 hour rounds on a bad day. My tee time was 12:30pm , I finished at 5:45pm! No golf etiquette on the course the day I played back nine.
