Course Highlights
Quail Ridge consistently impresses with lush, well-maintained fairways and firm, fast greens that stand out among Pinehurst-area courses. Exceptionally friendly staff and a well-regarded on-site grill round out a course that keeps golfers returning.

Old Style Gem, History here....

Green fees were in line with course conditions. I would even pay 5 bucks more for green fees. To me worth the drive from Morrisville, NC. Staff is always very nice. March so course had its wet spots. Greens seem to be getting alittle lost compared to playing course last October. But it’s March so give it time. Highly recommend

So far the only place I’ve played with green fairways. Greens were nice. The rough was dormant. Overall the course was in very good shape.

Not Pinehurst. But Challenging.

Too expensive to play without some type of discount. It’s not a Pinehurst course like they want you to soak in your mindset. Nice course for 30-34 bucks. They fixed the course up nice however compared to say 4-7 years ago. But still a solid 30 dollar course.

Nice Layout. Course right in front of you.

Nice course. For the money I paid through an online tee time service. Played this course 5-6 years ago when it was reasonably priced. If you can’t get a deal too expensive. But highly recommend.

Love it

I love the course. It’s got a lot of variety and isn’t penal. Makes for a fun rather than frustrating day. The conditions are excellent and the few rough spots are being worked on.

Beautiful course, tough greens

Greens are definitely different than average, thst role amazing but some of the breaks you’d be lucky to get it within 5 feet. Challenges all parts of your game but not overly challenging. Highly recommend.

Great winter conditions!

QR was in fantastic shape today. Overseeded fairways are always so nice this time of year. Greens were perfect. Bunkers and surrounds well kept. Always a pleasure to play here.
