Quail Ridge Country Club

Great course. Cart path only. Played after a rainy day. Still played great with some wet spots

I don’t recall heavy rainfall in the last 5-7 days. There were a number of soggy muddy areas on fairways. #2,6,12,13,14,, all had fairways that were unplayable. Greens are in dormant, but stable condition. Some fast, others with uphill, undulating green surfaces- that couldn’t be read. Distance, wide fairways and raked traps all were positive attributes. Paced was excellent, our foursome played in under 4 hours. We will play here a number of times this winter.

The course is in great shape for December. The golf now deal I got to play this course was amazing. The pace of play in front 9 was great. For some reason it slowed down a lot in back 9. We still played the round in about 4 hrs which is ok for a Saturday. First time playing here; I will make this course one of my regular local golf course.

The course layout is fun and very playable. The conditions were good to great. My only recommendation would be to roll the greens as there is some bumpiness

Undulations can make a golf course more interesting and challenging, and this course has its share (the green on #1 especially!). Undulating tee boxes, on the other hand, are simply annoying. This seems like an easy fix, if they cared to do so. Otherwise, a pretty straight forward course with wide fairways.

Fairways were over seeded and as long as most rough. During wet conditions course played 20-30 yds longer due to high grass in fairway. If overseeing like this occurs every year I would not recommend playing this course in October.

We played off of the senior tees and originally wondered why they were so short, nearly 1000 yards less then the whites. Well, the Maples design is great and the elevated and protected greens add effective length. A pleasant variety of holes and maybe only a couple felt jammed in.

The challenge we had was that they had seeded and heavily watered the fairways, so it was cart path only and balls just died in the fairway. Multiple places where you just had to pick up and drop 10 yards away. The necks approaching the elevated greens were treacherous with the extra watering.

My out of town playing partner agreed that I should give it a try again in the future, especially for the price. But not in early October again or after any kind of meaningful rain.

It was cart path only since they had overseeded the fairways. Not a problem. Greens were in good shape but slow. Everything else was great except that the grill was not open and they are famous for their hot dogs. Sure hate I didn't get one.

First time in over 5 years. The course was like a magic wand had been waved over it. Outstanding tee boxes, fairways that I wanted to lie down in, finest sand traps in the region (3 sand saves) and greens that were fair and true. Please, let's keep it a secret.

Also, thanks to Mr. Bill Ryan for the tour.

Will return

When I moved to NC , back in 1984, Quail Ridge was my favorite course to play despite being one hour from Carrboro. Since, I moved to Durham and it was even harder to access however, that changed this weekend. It was like a magic wand was passed over it. Staff friendly, magnificent greens, fairways I wanted to sleep in and playing partner ( THANK YOU BilIRYAN) that caddied me and Luke around the course. Will return much more often. Thank you

It's great to be back

Apart from the irrigation problems quail ridge is a fantastic course for the money. I’d play there again.

Quail Ridge- #BoomSauce! Great value - conditions- staff! Loved it!!!

When I arrived the course was very busy. I was greeted in the club house with friendly staff and they got me on a cart within minutes. I played with another twosome.

The course was beautiful to look at and in wonderful shape. A majority of the greens are elevated but the fairways are open. Greens were rolling fast. Also the greens are very disceveing so read them slowly to make a good putt.

We played in about 3 hours and 45 mins. I would play the course more if it wasn't so far away from me.
