Pleasantly Surprised

The conditions at Quail Ridge were terrific, and I believe they have the best fairways in Sanford. I'm a local and will return here as soon as possible

It’s been 25 years since I’ve played Quail Ridge and it is still a lot of fun. The course was in great shape. I’ll be back for sure

Great course and practice areas!

I wish this course was a bit closer to my house!! Chipping and putting green in great, course layout is fun and allows you to change your style of play based on conditions, and never too busy as it is just outside the "Triangle area". Highly recommend!

Great condition

The course is in good condition with interesting some small and tricky greens. Pace of play on a Friday afternoon was excellent and the fairways and greens were very good considering a lot of recent rain. Nice touch of having water bottles available in coolers on each nine. And a great grilled cheese in the sun with a drink after the round. A good outing.

Nice little track

Played this course on a get away day after playing Duke and Tobacco Road. Had an early tee time and the person at the front desk got me out 20 minutes before my time because I was a single and he didn’t want me to have to ride with a stranger. That was a nice welcome and it was much appreciated.

The course won’t wow you, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have its tricks. The par 3s might not be long but they are testy with elevated greens, bunker protection and slopes. There really isn’t much danger off the tee, but the tiered greens will be a challenge.

The conditions were pretty good for the massive rain they got last week and cold nights. The greens, collars and fairways looked to have been over seeded recently which made them much more playable. The greens had some marks which could have been a fungus or growth from the overseed. Didn’t really impact the putts and the greens were medium/fast and rolled true. Rough was in rough shape, pun intended, but I’m hoping with some warmer nights it’ll wake up and fill in. Overall, really enjoyed this last minute track. If you want a fun round, good conditions and a nice staff I suggest you give it a shot here

Never responded with an answer to my email.

Course layout not designed for fast round. My foursome held up on about every hole and the round took 5 1/2 hours. Fairways and greens just average. However, it is a nice layout if you have the entire day.
