Longleaf Golf & Family Club
About
Dan Maples, architect of the nationally acclaimed Pit Golf Links, has created another masterpiece only minutes from the Village of Pinehurst. Longleaf Golf & Family Club was formerly the site of Starland Farms, for years the training ground of some of the country's top thoroughbreds. As a tribute to its colorful history, Maples incorporated some of the features and flavor of the old facility into the golf course, including part of the fence and training track. The front nine at Longleaf was designed in the Scottish open style with subtly rolling fairways.The back nine, in contrast, is heavily tree-lined and dramatically elevated. Ron Whitten of Golf Digest called Longleaf "...the most playable course in Pinehurst."

The front nine is good challenge
Pro Shop Staff very welcoming. Range tee area in poor condition....no over-seeding for winter. Irrigation runoff on back nine created muddy areas around most greens which meant approach shots short of greens often plugged. Back nine very tight with houses and large trees.
Nice variety between the two nines, both enjoyable
The cart staff brought a cart down to our vehicle but there was a bag drop available. The Pro Shop staff was very helpful. Got us out ahead of time, gave us an overview of the course, identifying any challenging holes and how best to play them. The front nine is relatively flat and easy to play and the back nine has more holes carved through the trees but they still were not too difficult. The greens were good but a little furry and slower than we were used to. There were ball washers on every hole but unfortunately they were dry. The on-course facilities were clean and well situated. The carts were good but they had no GPS. All in all, the course was fun to play and a very good value for the money.
Former horse farm
Another great course from Dan Maples. The front nine is open with some elevation change, with many features from the old horse training days incorporated into the layout. The back nine begins with a downhill hole leading you into a totally different landscape. The holes have more elevation change and are much tighter.
