Terrific Trace
I booked with Golf Now and was thrilled to get onto a country club course for $55. We were supposed to play the Creek Course but started on the Lake Course. The fairways were nice and the greens were slow but true. After a few holes, we finally figured out the speed of the greens and were able to score well on the challenging course. There were many holes up and down hills. There were spectacular holes along the water, and there were holes with ponds. The course had a lot of variety and the pace of play were spectacular (3 hours 45 minutes). I will go out of my way to play this course again in the future.
Always a pleasure
CT Lakes is on the great courses in the Sanford / Pinehurst area. Lots of water, but the dry holes are just as interesting and nearly as challenging. Bermuda greens in near perfect shape. Fairways still brown (played in Feb.( but look like they will again be plush this year.
Definitely a must play again course
Greens excellent shape as were fairways. Of course it is winter so the landscape reflected the season. Course is challenging, but too much that hack golfers would be frustrated. Staff super friendly. There are 2 courses, we played the Lake course. Many holes on the water. Course is walkable.
Course beautiful , sand traps out of this world. Could not beat the Golf Now deal...
Quality in every way
Absolutely no complaints, course was in great condition, greens a hint slower than most courses in the area but rolled true and receptive. A little course knowledge goes a long way here.
Fun course
I enjoyed my round very much. Plenty of elevation changes to make clubbing interesting. Not the hardest driving course but accurate approach shots are required for scoring. Greens were in good shape and putted true. The range is a bit small and plays uphill so it's s bit tough dialing in your yardages. Overall worth the 45 minute drive.
The Lake course at Carolina Trace is a Great course all around period!
The Lake course at Carolina Trace is a Great course all around period! The fairways and greens are in excellent conditions at all times and the setup is a FANTASTIC one! It's a challenge for any level golfers from the tips and not so bad for the high handicappers from the front tees but there's one thing you'll do for sure and that's: You'll enjoy playing it and will want to comeback and do it again.... Humble regards everyone.
Nice Course
Course was in great shape. Greens a little slower than I am used to but overall this is a great course and I will play again.
Pick the right tee. They have many.
Bring your sky caddie (course is marked ok). You will need it for tee shots ( I drove it though a couple of dog legs), unless you can fade or draw on command you will need to leave the driver in the bag on some holes. There are a lot of fairway bunkers that come into play off the tee also. Water comes into play on both par 5's on the back nine off the tee. They do have many tee boxes to choose from. I also noticed a lot of "kids club" tee areas. I think I used every club in my bag except the 3 Iron ( but I'm not sure why it's in my bag, I only use it to punch out of the woods sometimes). Easy drive from Triangle area.
Beautiful championship caliber course.
What a beautiful and well maintained course! A bit far from cary but well worth the drive. The people in the clubhouse are friendly and the course was enjoyable with beautiful views. The greens are the same type you see in many pgatour tournaments. Practice on the putting green before your round to avoid overshooting the holes by 5 ft. A must play course for triangle golfers.
Great Central NC course
This course was a joy to play. It was in great shape and the weather was outstanding. The course was very scenic within the sandhills area. Definitely recommend playing if you're in the area.
