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."

Enjoyable high handicapper course

I ended up playing as a single as the twosome I was paired with wanted to play alone due to COVID concerns. With 7 tee boxes, the pace was super fast. I passed up a twosome and was the lead player, finished in 2:45, and felt rushed! The twosome behind me were playing off the 3500 yard tee box so they were really quick! (I was playing the "4.5" which is about 5200 yards.

The course was in very good condition. The design layout is just ok, but it is geared towards newer players and seniors. Greens were fast. Bunkers were a little uneven.

I will definitely play again, and am considering a membership.

Enjoyed the round

Course is in great shape. Their association with US Kids has really pumped some money into the course. 7 sets of tees so it's a course for all levels. Nice mix of flat, open holes with up/down hill, tree-lined holes. I'd definitely play here again!

First time

The clubhouse was nice, or at least the portion we were able to see due to restrictions because of COVID 19. Staff was very pleasant. The course was great and we will play there again soon.

Horrible Customer Service

Lady at front desk extremely difficult to deal with. Super sarcastic and forgot that the customer was sometimes right, not always right, but sometimes. Additionally, lady was extremely rude and obtained no social tact when dealing with military & healthcare professionals, refusing discounts for said professions. When we tried to get a refund before our tee time began she refused and said we’d have to use Golf Now to cancel. It required verbal altercation before she finally did her job. Would never recommend this golf course to anyone.
