Just a outstanding course.... well worth the drive. Photo submitted by DKN08 on 07/11/2016
Great condition
Everything in great condition , greens awesomely perfect
Great condition.
One of the best conditioned courses in area. Greens were near perfect. Course had a challenging layout; however was fair if you hit good shots. Only flaw on course was no water sources and the cart path will rattle your teeth in certain places.
Pace of play
This was probably one of the worst pace of play of any course I have ever played. We were a foursome there was a group of five in front of us that we were told were members. After the second hole we had to wait on every shot and the group in front of us had no one in front of them. It was very poor golf etiquette on the fivesome that were members of this course not to mention when we made the turn and we’re on the Teebox on number 10 in view of the clubhouse there were three groups on the tee waiting for this fivesome, I have lived in Newburn and played this course on many occasions there were a group of my friends that came to play said they would never return to this course
Greens are Firm and Fast
Hit several greens with a high loft wedge shot and found literally no ball mark. Nice surface and played fast.
Great challenging course
Course is surprisingly challenging with distance. A good amount a humps in the fairway that makes the green look closer but range finder says it’s farther than you think! Trust your range finder! Great layout, amazing staff, I will travel back to play again!
Excellent in ENC
Excellent course with fantastic greens. Cart paths need some work, but it was a very pleasurable experience for the first time. Will definitely return to this memorable course.
ol redneck
the emerald is always a fun time, i usually play with some folks i don't know so i get to meet some new golfers and play a nice course. will look forward to the next time around.
Always enjoyable
Greens had been recently aerated so pretty bumpy but the rest of the course was in great condition. It was HOT so surprising it wasn’t more burnt out. Pace was a bit slow but not terrible. Staff is always very friendly.
Excellent Shape
Played from the Emerald Tees, aka the Tips. Solid and full 6800 Yds. Well Laid out, Member course, with a lot of retirees playing Monday morning. Can't walk, have to take a cart. Overall a great day not working. Only complaint was the pins were not cut that day, looked like they hadn't been cut since Friday morning. Lipped out 3 puts due to dead grass on the cut of the pin.
Hottest day of the year
Really beautiful, definitely enjoyed it! Linked up with a guy that knew the layout and had a really good time. Score didn’t reflect it lol 82, but we’ll blame it on the 100 degree day. Definitely will play again!
A Must Play in Eastern Carolina
The staff here is the friendliest and accommodating bunch of folks I have ever come across . That is saying alot because I play alot of golf course. Bo was super on the phone and Tim was great to me as a single with my 85 year old father who just rides with me. The don't have a rider fee like the other courses in the area. He sent us off the back because he was booked on the front and I played 18 in under 3 hours.
The course is lush and the greens rolled true without hopping around like other courses in the area.
Worth the drive, excellent greens
Very glad I decided to drive up from Atlantic Beach to try this course. I found excellent greens with subtle breaks and beautiful fairways. Significant rain overnight did not restrict driving carts. Course is mostly flat but mounding makes it interesting. The green complexes are first rate. Bunkers were freshly raked and tee boxes are very good. Did not use the range, but it looks good. Only drawback are the broken cart paths... I'm glad I don't play off of them. Got a great green fee deal on TeeOff.
Had to follow a fivesome!
Had to follow a fivesome! There was a major hold up on the first tee box, because the previous shotgun hadn’t finished, and we had to allow two groups to finish their last hole which was the first hole. Then the staff allowed a fivesome to go out in front of us, we were playing as a threesome! That was bad enough. But at no point during the round even though we were on their butts the entire day did that fivesome allow us to play through. Not cool!
