Talamore Golf Resort

About
Resort Course at Talamore Golf Resort is a Rees Jones masterpiece that was nominated as "Best New Public Course of the Year" when opened and has become a regular stop for annual returnees to Pinehurst.
The centuries-old tradition of using llamas to help humans carry packs has been revived with a new twist at Talamore. These gentle, hardy animals can carry two bags of clubs with ease and sure-footedness. Their soft padded feet are kind to the delicate surfaces of a golf course. Known for their friendly and quiet manners, llamas make the perfect caddies. Now you can treat yourself and your friends to a truly distinctive golf experience.

pristine
Talamore is one of the best courses in the Pinehurst area. Great staff, amenities and a fabulous course.
First time
Fairways like most course had some burn in them from heat and rain
WOW‼️
Best track I have ever played. Never seen greens ever roll that fast. I wanted to play another 18 but didn’t have enough day light. The guy working in the pro shop was super cool and didn’t hesitate to give advice and answer questions. I will definitely be back to visit!
great bunkers if avoided
really fast but fair greens with visually stunning green side, layered sod, bunkering.
you must avoid all of the front bunkers, though the rest are manageable
poor weather was a bit of a distraction from an otherwise great course that i would play again
Tala-NO-more
We were told to park in the apartment parking lot across the road. The bag drop looked like it was an international flight baggage claim area and continued downhill from there, with a 20 minute wait just to get carts. For a course that markets itself as a premium experience, you’d expect better organization at check-in.
The pace of play was painfully slow the entire day. We spent more time waiting on every tee box than actually golfing, and there was no marshal to be found to help move things along. It felt like the staff had completely checked out when it came to managing the course.
To make matters worse, it was an extremely hot day (114 heat index) the kind where you really depend on beverage service. Yet the cart girl only came around when we specifically called, which meant long stretches with no water (since the coolers on the course were bone dry) or drinks in sight. That’s unacceptable.
Between the disorganization, slow play, and lackluster service, it’s hard to recommend Talamore. There are plenty of other courses in the area that treat players better and know how to run things efficiently. We won’t be rushing back.
Great golf course
5 stars all around. Great conditions and great layout. Friendly staff.
Wowed
Played here probably 8 years ago in the off season and was amazed then. This time around the course was in excellent condition from tee to green. Greens were quick but still very receptive, making for a great balance of challenge and playability; a lot of gettable par 5s to lower those scores. The layout was fun and engaging, with a nice variety of holes that kept things interesting throughout the round. Best of all, it felt like we had the entire course to ourselves—pace was smooth and relaxed. Highly recommend if you’re in the Pinehurst area. Just avoid all the deep bunkers! That was my one goal for the round and I did it! And don’t forget to see the llamas!
First time playing this course.
Entire course in fantastic shape. Stayed after to have lunch in clubhouse. Service excellent and food was worth price as sandwiches were over sized
Most definitely recommend playing here
Fabulous Talamore
Our round was fabulous. The staff was friendly and informative. The course was is great shape from the tee boxes to the fairways and greens. The greens were rolling a 12 and were true. Had the best hotdogs with fixings at the turn. We will return here when we make a trip back to the Pinehurst area.
Great round and loved new course
Played as part of a trip to the area and haven’t played it since 2015, so excited to see the renovations and play the updated course. Conditions were great and loved the setup and course. Hope to play it again on a return trip to the Sandhills.
Pinehurst area has gotten out of control
It's a shame. It's all about dynamic pricing and gouging people for everything that they will pay. I had a discounted rate of a hundred and fifty nine dollars for a supposed 250 round. I have played this course many times over the years. For everywhere between 45 and 79... when you charge over two hundred dollars per round range balls need to be included. Charging me three dollars.Additional for range balls, and giving me attitude when I question it is not acceptable. We were late, starting and the round took five hours. Never saw a ranger. Conditioning of the course was a good $75 course. I've spent many nights in the pinehurst area and played a lot of rounds of golf . Not sure I'll be back anytime soon.
Talamore Saturday outing
Great track, pricey. Seemingly tight tee time spacing. No range balls included and club cleaning hawks dialed in at the end.
Course is in great shape. Played in a foursome in under 4 hours.
Starters were a bit confused at the beginning of our round. Otherwise it was a great experience.
Nice course condition ok off season
While I played in early spring and enjoyed layout , several tee boxes have issues and did not like having to tee off mats. They are also doing a lot of maintenance which will be excellent when paths are completed but nothing mentioned about this. Greens were sold as being very fast but on day played it rolled slow. Just noted to be aware
Good resort coarse.
Layout and amenties were awesome. The merch in the pro shop is really nice as well. We went off first and set the pace.
