One of my regular courses

Pace this round was slower than typical due to a young child playing ahead of me.

Best greens in the area especially for winter play.

Great greens, hidden gem

I've been meaning to place this course for a few years but was always a little hesitant because it was in Monroe. My mistake! This course has the best greens (front 9) in Charlotte and it was fun playing a Jones and Jackson layout on one course. The front nine (Jones) is old school traditional with shorter holes, small fast greens with deadly pin placements. While the back nine (Jackson) feels like a completely different course playing 300-400 yards longer, big greens and new school layout. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I definitely will be back!

Fantastic Greens

Probably some of the best greens I've played on in the area. Rest of the course needs a little bit of love, but I'm sure by next season it will be in top shape. Great turnaround story for this course. Great friendly staff as well. Highly recommend.

MCC worth the drive

I am biased because this is the course I cut my teeth on, but it nevertheless deserves the high praise. Front nine is a Donald Ross original, of which there are fewer public designs this well maintained. The layout is a little tight but the greens are in great condition year round and provide Ross's standard strategic challenge. Holes 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 9 are particularly strong holes. The back nine is Tom Jackson, more wide open with larger and less challenging greens, but equally sound conditioning. Playing number 18 as the sun is setting is always a treat.

Perfect course conditions

Enjoyed a Hot Deal at Monroe CC for the second time. Fairways and greens are in perfect condition. Weather was perfect. Front 9 has small Donald Ross greens...tough to hit, requiring good chipping skills. Back nine has more modern feel with bigger greens. Pleasant staff both in clubhouse and on the course. New carts are expected shortly. Points to note...200 yard marker in fairway is red instead of blue. Practice range is not close to course. Snack bar is limited.

Always a great choice .

Our weekly group returned to Monroe on 9/9 which is part of our normal "rotation". Greens are in excellent condition, as always. Did not select five stars for course conditions due to some areas of the rough and fairways needing minor attention but nothing that impacted the game. Staff is usually friendly and welcoming but we especially appreciated Brian and Nick this week after our group expanded beyond the number of players we had reserved and a full tee sheet. Be back soon.

Had a blast!

First time playing Monroe and I am so glad I did. I absolutely loved the place. I gave the course a lot of 5-stars in individual ratings, particularly for the condition of the fairways and greens. Snacks at the turn were self-serve hot dogs and pre-made sandwiches, but I was completely ok with that. I was there to golf, not have a 4-star dinner. The snacks were very reasonably priced, too!

The front nine, Donald Ross I believe, was mature in the best ways possible. The trees lining the fairways have no doubt been around for a long time and no doubt have a lot of stories to tell. No offense to Ross fans, because I mean this in a good way, the course reminded me of a 1925 A.W. Tillinghast-designed track I used to play years ago.

It's not a long course but the elevations, crowned greens and bunker placement will make club selection a thinking person's game.

Staff was great. Very friendly.

I actually felt bad playing here on a hot deal. The course was worth more than we paid. We will be back.
