Hidden Gem
Many people these two courses are private but they are not. I’ve played here a dozen times and the pace of play is always good. Great course layouts with plenty of challenging holes. Beautiful views throughout. Golfers are also able to dine at the club restaurant if they want to. Great value for the money.
Awesome course
Course was in excellent condition for this time of year
A Pleasure to Play!
The Lake Course surpasses its billing! The course layout and maintenance are superb. We thoroughly enjoyed our round and will be back to play again. We definitely recommend this course to golfers of any skill level.
Nice course
Layout is fine, some challenging holes, be prepared for some tricky chips and quick putts as greens are undulating.
Above Average for Winter but Pricey
Decent course condition for winter and recent heavy rain. Greens were real quick. Downside is the conditions and layout weren’t worth $80 for late Dec.
Nice course, but a bit pricy without a deal
We played this course for the first time, having gotten a hot deal on GolfNow. The pro-shop staff was extremely friendly when we checked in. We found the course to be in very good condition all around. Greens were in great shape. The course was challenging, but never unfair. There were four holes in particular that stood out as "signature" quality. The only thing that will keep us from playing with any frequency is the cost. Our Hot Deal came in at $80 per golfer and the regular price was something like $115. This was on a Friday, so not even weekend rates. With a more modest price, we'd play here a bunch.
Great course
The greens were in impeccable shape for this time of year. Course layout was gorgeous. I’ll be back!
I need to play it more often
The course has its challenging holes and some wide open holes. You still need to golf your ball . Lakes course has 3 of the areas toughest par 3s.
Fall is tough because of the leaves to find your ball in the fairway but good course to play in the Sandhills/Sanford area.
Great Course
Great course would recommend it to anyone. I played solo and had the second tee time on a Saturday. I as a little afraid that I was going to get stuck behind the foursome of older members ahead of me but they let me play through on the first. Greens and fairways were in beautiful shape, great course design, fun Saturday at Carolina Trace.
Excellent conditions, course is in great shape
This course is in awesome condition and stands above many courses in this area. The staff was excellent and carts were i great condition and ready for 18- hole play. My only recommendation would be to offer a better rate for weekly play and have the higher rates for the weekend
Very challenging and fun
The greens were excellent
Strong challenge from the blue tees
Nice deal on Golfnow
Looking forward to playing again
Beautiful views and good conditions
Played the Lake course at Carolina Trace. The layout and views on the lake are awesome. Course is in good condition and there wasn't many people playing maybe due to the $106 price which is high for the area. I really enjoyed the course and will play it again.
Not worth the weekend price
The course was not what we expected for the price. Charging $125 on Saturday and not having a single cooler of water on the course is kinda unheard of. The greens were in great shape but this course was not what we expected for the price paid.
Nice Course
This is a very nice course. Challenging layout with many elevation changes. Course knowledge is at a premium. Unfortunately, there is no course map on the scorecard nor is there a sign at the tee box to explain the hole. We basically played it blind. Having some course knowledge would have saved us at least six strokes each. Some areas of the course are bare from high traffic and are unsightly. For the money, I would expect it to be a bit more beautiful and manicured. But the greens are the star. They are smooth, fast and true. A bit difficult to master but I would much rather play these than most of the greens at other courses. Definitely recommend playing this track.
