The Emerald Golf Club

First time playing, at first glance course looks beautiful. Tee boxes are all level / flat. Sorta open layout gives you some confidence even with the water hazards and tight spots. Maintained very well. Greens are very quick but roll true. One of the best greens I’ve had the pleasure of playing on. I shot a 91. Which could’ve been more like an 86 if I didn’t have a couple blow up holes It was a very very hot day, course is challenging but fun if you are the average golfer, below average or even a scratch golfer I recommended this course to all men and women. I played from the blue tees which was very deceiving on distance with the naked eye. Bring a range finder and you’ll be all set!

The course was okay. they did not have cards availale and had to wait 20 minutes beyond Tee time. Play was very slow, took four hours for 18 holes.

I played after 2 weeks of non stop rain so it was muddy but still had a great time. This is course is the best course around under $40 I had 4 people all together in my group so we had some people passing us which was a given. But overall a great course for a intermediate player.

The folks at The Emerald are always friendly, professional and thorough. The course is one of the better choices on the North Carolina coast.

Tight fairways with a good layout and a moderate amount of water. Well maintained and a great value for the money.

Hadn’t played the Emerald in several years but I’m glad I dropped in. Still a nice track and in good shape so I went twice in one week.

Nice layout-every hole different. Quite a few visually appealing holes. Big greens - a bit slow but true. Everywhere is wet. Nicely bunkered. Slightly elevated greens force you to land the ball on the green. Short shots will be rejected. 18 is a great closer. Long, bordered on right by pond, narrow tee shot landing area and really tight approach to a large green. Looking forward to playing when the grass greens up and things dry out.

Greens fast and well kept. Fairways were wide but wet, so cart path only....and a long round. A couple of challenging holes and tough distances. Pleasant afternoon.

There was a shotgun start tournament starting. We got 9 holes in following 2-foursomes. Very slow. Tournament started at turn causing us to ask for rain check. Too slow. Maybe golfnow needs add these types of events going on reasons for reimbursement.

Great conditions

Course was beautiful and greens were fast,

From beginning to end No Waits and a fun time

This course is very well maintained with the best greens in the area. The course offers enough challenges for any level player. It is my favorite course in New Bern

Very nice well kept the course. Not a lot of difficult holes but challenging. Greens are very fast and true and fairways are in excellent condition. Very enjoyable round.

Played here many times. Course always in great condition.
