Blair Park Golf Course
About
Blair Park Golf Course is the one of High Point's two municipally owned courses. It's the older of the two, given as a gift to the city from the descendants of Solomon Blair. Originally constructed as a nine-hole course in 1931, a second nine was added in the late 1940s. Over the years the golf course has hosted many area championships and has become a favorite of local golfers. The golf course has a traditional layout with challenges that have withstood the test of time. Several creeks meander through Blair Park Golf Course, coming into play on more than half of the holes and the bunkering is minimal but strategic. The course is player friendly enough for beginners but low handicappers will enjoy the risk-reward opportunities where you can go for broke, though errant shots will be severely punished.

Great Municipal Course
I was in town for work and only had a few hours to play, so I looked for courses in the area offering 9-holes at a reasonable price. Blair was very reasonably priced, especially since it included a cart rental. The course as a whole was nicely maintained, I did notice 1 or 2 greens that had some repair work done and this did come into play on one hole. The fairways were good, rough and 2nd cut was well kept and the tee boxes were good overall too. For the money, the convenience to the highway, the friendly staff and my overall experience, I was very happy I choose Blair Park on my way out of town!
Enjoyed playing Blair Park
This was my first time playing at Blair Park. The course was in condition except for a couple of tee boxes and maybe one or two greens. Course had a couple or short par 4s, and challenging par 3s. We had a good time and I will be back again.
Decent Course
The course conditions are great, and most holes are challenging and plays to both skilled shots and beginners. There’s a nice practice area to warm up with a net and free balls. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, marshals kept up the pace of play very well.
My only criticism is on more than one occasion, locals would wander onto the course. Several times I had to wait for someone to clear away before I could hit a shot. Otherwise, it’s a fun course and a good value.
A great public course
Played it twice in two weeks. I can’t believe how nice this course is. Very well maintained and challenging for a public course. I will be back in a couple of weeks

First time played course. Course in good shape after a previous day of rain. Crossovers from one section of the course to another a little funny but manageable. Looking to go back as soon I I tune a few things up. Looks like I have found a nice course to play.
hot day, pleasant golf
course in good shape, greens in reasonable shape. over 90 degrees - hot and humid - kept people away. Played 27 holes in less then 3.5 hours! only had to wait on one hole - and group let me play through. definitely a pleasant round of golf! and played for free with golf now discount! Money spent on cart for extra 9 holes.
Blair Park
Course and greens were in great shape for a city course staff were extremely friendly I would play there again for sure
Nice course
The greens are soft so everything sticks. Only played the back 9 as the front 9 was washed out due to all the rain we've had lately, was also cart path only. Very nice course with some difficult holes. 18 was my favorite and most challenging as I can't draw the ball around the trees. Will definitely play this course again when it drys out.
Solid Value
Blair park has no range, but staff is friendly and their proshop is reasonable. Watch for the powlines
Great Everyday Course
Rode 18 at Blair Park on a Monday afternoon. Got a great deal on GolfNow and I was already in the area so I actually arrived at the course almost an hour before my tee time. Staff was very friendly and let me go ahead and tee off.
Place was pretty empty. I may have seen 5-6 other people the entire round and pace of play was amazing. I wasn’t rushing at all and I still finished 18 in just under 3 hours.
Course itself is a nice layout that makes you think about what club you’re hitting and plan shots. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens were all in good condition.
Overall I definitely like the course and would generally expect to may about double what they charge for a round. Anytime I’m in near High Point with an afternoon to kill you’ll find me here.
Never let's me down
This course is always in good condition. The fairways were mowed well enough and the greens were reasonably fast and true. The pace of play is always well managed, the staff is friendly. It's a great value!
