Fairway weeds. Not every hole was this bad, but most holes had some form of this. Even some greens had stuff like this. Photo submitted by blamege on 09/19/2022

178 par 3 from blue Photo submitted by u000008123232 on 04/25/2021
Nice course, a little abusive because 4-5" ruff
Some holes are a little quirky, outside of the collar for the greens had a 4-5 inch Bermuda ruff, so a little abusive. But overall a nice course.
Phill in the pro sho was very friendly
Had a great round and enjoyed a tasty lunch in the clubhouse
Was hoping for more.
Was hopeful upon arrival. Pro shop attendant was good. At $125, course conditions were not commensurate with this greens fees. If you played the ball down, ball was covered in grass clippings, and mower cuts were inconsistent (some cut , some not). Tee boxes were shaggy, and bunkers unkempt. Even more disappointing, when I saw tee times on Golf Now, at half-the-price, later in the week.
Great Course, No Amenities
I really enjoyed every aspect of the golf.
However, I don't understand how you can send people out on a course that doesn't see the clubhouse at the turn with only a water fountain every 4-5 holes (3 total) and no snack cart... Especially when temps are climbing into the high 80s.
I've only played this course once before (about 5 years ago) so I wasn't aware of the far-away turn, and no one bothered to tell me. I'm lucky I brought my own snack. I ran out of water well before reaching each water fountain.
Great Course for the location!
Excellent facilities... nice fairways and greens.. beautiful lake area.
Creek course
Booked a 11:30 tee time on golf now show up at 11 check in proceed to hit some range balls drive to the first tee to see a group of 5 in front of us then a group of 4 in front of them, no big deal friday golf gonna have to wait no problem. Tee up first drive hit it in the fairway my buddy goes to tee up and right as he does a member drives by and tells us we have to wait because they are the last group of the tournament that is being played we said pro shop didn’t say anything about a tournament member yells back we’ll go back up there cause that’s our pro shop and then drove to the senior tees, guys at pro shop were nice enough I guess offered to get us off on the other course but why wasn’t that said when we arrived? Members run this place apparently and trace doesn’t care about the public money plenty of other courses in the area avoid this one unless you are a member
Damp, great challenge
Course was damp considering not much rain recently. Bunkers in super shape. A few picturesque holes you will not forget. Greens smooth, but slow compared to other courses in area.

Challenging but not draconian
Solid layout, not surprising given it's an RTJ design. Pricing fluctuates wildly; I played for under $50 but there are days when all GolfNow fees for the same track are $100+. Definitely NOT a $100 course but fertainly eorth $50.
Love trace
If the prices were lower during peak summer I would play this course regularly, challenging, fun and long ⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️
Carolina Trace Creek
I enjoyed the course. The only complaint is that 17(?) of the 18 holes all had blue flags on the green which according to the sign just outside the clubhouse, means back of the green. But the blue flags were in the front, center, and back of the greens. Not a huge deal for my game, but made it a little more difficult to decide on a club if it wasn’t clear where the flag was. I only recall seeing one other colored flag (white) which was on the 18th hole. And white should have been middle but this white flag was front. Just made it a little more difficult than it probably should have been and definitely didn’t jive with what the sign outside the clubhouse showed - red front, white middle, blue back.
Beautiful day
Had a great day . Fun group and course was in good shape after a week of ultra cold weather. Cannot wait to come back.
