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.

Excellent Challenge for All
Course offers tees for all skill sets. It’s a fun layout to play and the difficulty is dependent on what markers you choose to play it from. Bunker redos are wonderful and punishing of a wayward shot. Greens were top end as expected. Good facilities and the pro shop folks are very friendly.
Resort course, but no pitch-and-putt
Talamore is a solid test of golf! From the creative layout to the sod faced wall bunkers, it’s all/you/can eat, especially from the tips! Fast greens but friendly kicks into the wide fairways make this a fun and must play when in the Pinehurst area! Nice practice area with Top Tracer technology! This course is ALWAYS on our rotation!
Thank you for taking the time to review us, u000004304765. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Talamore Golf Resort thanks you!
Course just reopened after several days of extreme cold weather with greens being covered with tarps. Conditions were very good and greens were smooth and true. Only issue was occasionally getting the tees into the still frozen ground on several tee boxes. Overall an outstanding experience.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, Sburaczewski! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Talamore Golf Resort.
Enjoyable Round
Really enjoyed the round. Course was in great shape. Greens were fast and true.
Only negative was cart path only. There was some rain early but honestly there was only one spot on one fairway that was close to being “wet” and that was a low spot in the first fairway. Pace of play would have been much much better.

Fantastic Course
Played here as part of a guys golf trip. The consensus among the 8 of us was that this was by far our favorite course. Fairways and greens were pristine, we finished in 4 hours, the staff was friendly, and the clubhouse provided a great atmosphere for a post match beer. It was also a great value. Other top courses in the area are 2x the rate, but I can't imagine how they could be twice as nice. I would love to play here again.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Talamore Golf Resort.

One of the best in the Sandhills
Great course and in excellent shape! A must play in the area!! Outside staff needs some customer service training. Had an issue with the brake on my cart. Instead of just getting me a new cart and apologize for the inconvenience, the attendant decided to demonstrate that nothing was wrong with brake and question me.

Beautiful Course
First time playing out at Talamore and played solo. Staff is very friendly and pricing on everything from food to beer to merchandise is very reasonable. Conditions were excellent across the course including some of the best greens I have played on this year. One minor complaint is the lack of free range balls at a course this price. However, overall an awesome experience and would play again if I am in the area.
ageematt20, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Talamore Golf Resort.
Talamore
This golf course is the best in the area that is available on GolfNow. I’m a scratch golfer and one that cares a lot about the consistency of a course . Talamore never disappoints me . The greens are fast and true but they hold and receive shot to the green very consistently. The overall course is top notch . Always look forward to playing Talamore

Great Course
Great Course in Great Condition. Greens were almost perfect. Would have liked to see some upgrades to the ammenities for the price of a normal round. I paid with some coupons, so was happy but at full price would like to see free range balls,, or upgrades to the carts. No Coolers.
