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.

Best off-season experience you could have!
Played here on Valentines Day and could have asked for a better overall experience. The staff was incredible, all very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I was the first group out and paired with another first-time visitor to the course. The conditions were great considering all the bad weather recently. Greens very well taken care of, fairways right and rough challenging but not rage inducing lol. Waited for my ride in the beautiful clubhouse and bar looking out over the course. I will definitely be back the first chance I get! Also if you get a hot now deal it feels like you’re stealing from them, this place is amazing!
We're glad you enjoyed your 5-star experience with us, Brewster46. Please comment or reach out to our team in the golf shop to let us know more about your round at Talamore Golf Resort!
Great Value!
What a treat getting to play here earlier this week, it’s February, it’s been wet and the course is still amazing, cannot wait to go back! The New bunkers are looking great and the range when completed will be fantastic.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, Mike1788491! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Talamore Golf Resort.
Rained out
Course too wet. Golf course canceled play before I tees off.
Thank you for your review, u000008034273. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Talamore Golf Resort. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Good Value In Southern Pines
We live in Raleigh and have done a day trip to Talamore twice recently. On a decent winter day, this is a great value, and a fun course to play. The owner is investing in the course and facilities, and it shows. Currently, the practice range is closed as they upgrade it, but come Spring in will be nice. They are adding pot bunkers to several holes, which gives them a great look. It is a good track, with a mix of difficult holes and a few that are scoreable. If you decide to stay nearby, there are several additional great options for playing.

Though the course is putting in a new driving range, so no pre-round practice, the course was is great shape for winter golf. Will go back again.

Best hidden course in Moore County
I’ve lived in the Pinehurst area since 1986 and saw this course for the first time. I must say I was astonished at the excellent layout of the course and the beauty of it all. Tough enough to demand good ball striking but not so tough as to ruin a great day. My son and I absolutely loved the course and consider it our favorite. Looking forward to the next round at Talamore

Fair track, fun layout
Good track. The greens are tough, getting to them not as much. You can score here if you have the flat stick working. Staff was friendly. I played in the winter for $50; not sure I'd love it as much at the regular $100+ rate.

Do not play Right now !!!
When we arrived at the course, I was unaware of the course being under repaired as there were no Golf Now alerts. Immediately after the pro shop received my money( 138$ for two), they THEN chose to tell me that the driving green was unusable, the second hole was closed, many of the bunkers were closed and they had grounds repair crews practically on every hole. We had to drive to another course to warm up and then return to play. It’s a shame that a course of this caliber could not have told us this beforehand but after they had already received my money. This was a gift and was a sure disappointing one.

One of the best in the area
I love this course and I promise you it won’t disappoint. They are doing bunker work on 17 and it was closed but it didn’t take away from the round one but. Greens are smooth and fast as always and will challenge even the best putters. Will definitely be back soon
