Cedar creek
Very good shape nice greens great value. We have played here many times love it.
Shaggy fairways, not kept
It hadn’t rained in 2 days and the course was bone dry but they made it cart path only. They never checked on the conditions.
The rough was 5-6” inches in places. Twice the balls rolled off the fairway and couldn’t be found. Twiice a chip that went over the green took five minutes to find. Some bunkers had no sand.
No one was wearing masks in the pro shop.
PGA should be ashamed of this staff.
Hidden gem
This course had a great layout and friendly staff. Course was soaked and freshly mowed when I played. The grass clippings made it hard to find balls that plugged into the fairway. All in all, good time and a great layout through the foothills. Would definitely like to play again with different course conditions.
Great course
One of the best courses around the Hickory area. Well worth it.
Horrible Pro Shop Staff
My golf foursome, along with probably 6 other groups, all arrived at this golf course on a beautiful 80 degree Saturday morning only to find out that the course was closed after driving over an hour to play this course. Pro Shop staff were completely rude and disrespectful in their response on how all of these groups “should have called.”
I have played golf for over 25 years and have never seen this... ever. I will never come back to this course and will NOT recommend it to any person that wants to play golf in the Lenoir, NC area to get a little mountain golf in.
As Head Golf Professional, I apologize for your experience. Unfortunately, we didn't receive notification of the course being closed due to heavy rain the previous day and night, until that morning. I agree that we should have reached out to contact those that were scheduled, and because of your feedback this policy is now in place.
Fun course, one of my favorites
I always have a good time at Cedar Rock, even on a packed Sunday the pace of play was good. The course is in really good condition, probably the best in the Hickory/Lenoir area.
I am glad you had a great experience at Cedar Rock, We have been working hard to maintain a pace of play policy.
Please come out and see us soon.
Excellent Shape
Course was in great shape, fantastic fast greens. Highly recommend!
Course in great condition
Great day golflng with my Son who is visiting from Washington state. Really enjoyed the course.
Fun Course
I have been wanting to play here for a while and after seeing they had hosted a CGA championship recently I decided to book a time. The front nine was an interesting layout with many elevation changes and some narrow landing areas. The back nine was fairly flat and wide open but still had quality golf holes. The fairways and tee boxes were in good shape and the rough was light and not very penalizing. The greens were in great shape but a little on the slow side. They could have been left that way because of the hot weather. Be sure to say "Hi" to the gentleman who lives on the left of the 10th fairway! If you hit in a ball in his yard he is standing guard so you can't enter and retrieve it!
I am glad you enjoyed your time. Ellis Maples did a great job with the layout! Please come back and see us soon. When the leaves change, its a beautiful venue.
Cedar Rock
Overall course was in great shape. Played blue tees. Beautiful scenery and views. Course laid out to suit golfers of all abilities. Greens rolled faster than most i have played recently which was nice. A few bad spots here and there in fairways but did not take away from my experience there at all today. All staff probably one of nicest overall I have had the pleasure of meeting. Super friendly.
I am so glad you had a great experience. It is a great Ellis Maples design with beautiful views. It is even prettier in the fall! We look forward to seeing you again.
Cedar Rock
I was extremely pleased with my round at Cedar Rock. My son had checked the website before we played, and said that the course was rated #3 course in NC in 1970. I can see how that was true.The course is difficult, with all terrains imaginable throughout. The greens are huge, with perfect grass and quite fast. Water comes into play. Traps are well maintained. My son and I were a twosome, with him playing the blue tees (6600) yards, and me the green (5600). We were both challenged, shooting mid-80's. Not bad for 1st time around the tract.
I am glad you and your son had a great time! It is a challenging, but fair course that tests all your skills. Come back and see us soon!
Still Got It
They have fast bent grass greens in great shape, good fairways and tee boxes. This course is in great shape with a good layout, beautiful views, and just a really good course in really good shape. Requires well struck shots to shoot a good round. Good mix of easy and hard holes and just a joy to play. I recommend this course 100 percent.
Nice Gem
Greens were fast and challenging and very nice
Fairways in great shape
So pleased booked a 2nd round instead of chancing a different course on vacation
Be on your toes
Cedar Rock is in excellent shape and not overpriced like many mountain courses in summer. What it does have in common with the others is tricky greens and fairways that require a fair bit of precision. No. 5 and 12 will get your attention. All in all, I wish it were closer to my summer home.
Had to cancel on the count of Covid but was still charge after they said I wouldn’t be MADDD
Please contact GolfNow directly and they should be able to take care of your refund. Please come back and try us when you feel comfortable. We have many safety measures in place on and off the golf course.

I am sorry that your experience wasn't what you expected. September was an unusually wet month, and some of our low areas take awhile to drain making many areas too soft for carts and also difficult to get in there with a mower. Sometimes we error on the side of caution to preserve our fairways.Thank you for bringing the lack of wearing masks to my attention, We will increase this protocol, to already go with safety divider we have at check to keep socially distant,
