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.

Great course in good condition

Great course in good condition but still a bit overpriced. Used to play it with a Capital Card for $60. Now the daily rate is double that and even with a GolfNow Hot Deal it was $100.

6 (YES 6) HOUR ROUND!!!

Talamore is a great track and in great shape however, things have gotten out of control with the pace of play. Today’s round took 6 hours to complete!!! You could say it was because carts were on path only, or the frost delay caused a shotgun start, or even because there was a tournament going on, but none of those things were the reason. I personally saw the foursome that held everything up. There were AT LEAST two open holes in front of them. We had a second foursome in our group but things were so slow they left after 9 holes. I spoke to the ranger who responded with a nonsensical answer that did address why play was so slow.

If you are wanting to play a great course, have a lot of time to kill, and don’t mind having to cancel dinner plans, Talamore is the place for you. Conversely, if you are a golfer who values your time and doesn’t have 6 hours to spend on the golf course, you may want to look elsewhere.

Great condition

Everything is great except for the range...very thin with not much grass to hit off. But that's common for this time of year. Speedy greens!
