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.

Always a great time
Great staff. Great conditions. Never disappointed at Talamore.
Talamore Never Disappoints
Upon arrival, I was enthusiastically greeted by both the starter and pro. Everything was great. The course was in excellent condition. I played 18 in only 2&1/2 hours! How great is that? Definitely will be back. Excellent value as well.
Thanks for leaving us a review, we look forward to seeing you again next time!
Great course
This course is well maintained and has a nice layout. Lots of undulations on course that makes it challenging but very fair course. Staff was very friendly as well
Thanks for leaving us a review, BSP. We're glad you enjoyed your time at Talamore!
Great course
Talamore has a great layout and offers many demanding shots. The course was I good shape but quite wet from rain the day before. The greens were still true and fast. This is a course to play if visiting the Pinehurst area.
Thanks for leaving us a review, we're glad you enjoyed your time at Talamore!
Nice parkland course
We returned to play Talamore again after having played it last year for our boys golf trip down from Ontario, Canada. Excellent condition again and enjoyed the parkland layout. Although it was quite busy, the pace of play was good and you didn't really see many foursomes because of the trees lining the fairways. Terrific greens and lush fairways. A very good test for all golfers. Will definitely be back to play Talamore next time we're in town..
Fabulous Course
What a great course for the money. Course was in great condition with soft sand. The greens were especially challenging - fast and usually broke more than anticipated. Top it off with $3.50 Bloody Mary..
Thanks for leaving us a review, McMahon. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your time at Talamore!
Excellent Course
This was a course that I was looking forward to, and I was not disappointed. Even though it was cart path only, it gave me a better view of the landscaping and the amount of talent it takes to design such a course. I did get to see the white Lama, as she was kind enough to be laying in front of the door. A wonderful experience all around.
We appreciate you taking time to leave us a review, we're glad you enjoyed your time at Talamore!
A great 'new' Talamore
Deb and I had a great time playing this course. The greens were slick and while we had to walk (cart path only because of the recent rain) we really enjoyed the experience.
Thanks for leaving us a review, we're glad to hear you both enjoyed your time at Talamore!
Good course, but way overpriced
Talamore is a fine course. With the exception of the premiere Pinehurst courses, (Pinehurst Resort, Mid Pines, etc), Talamore is better than most you will find in the area. However, the course is way overpriced for what it is. Green fees were $129 for an afternoon round in October. I’ve played many, many courses for far less that we’re much better courses. Their fees are what they are because it is in Pinehurst, and that’s really the only reason. But worse, even at a $129 rate, they had the audacity to charge for range balls. Not kidding. Overpriced fees aside, the course was in good shape. Conditions of the tees, fairways, and greens were far better than what you’ll find at places like Southern Pines, Whispering Pines, or Foxfire type courses. Even during drought conditions, fairways were lush. Greens were very good. It’s a nice course, but I would only play it in the off-season unless you don’t mind paying $130+ for a round of golf.

I liked this course!
Good experience! Second time playing the course and was drier weather this time so much more enjoyable. Lots of elevation changes and challenging greens. Par 3s were my favorite. A good tee shot/approach is a must -getting up and down for par is tough! The course was in good shape, tee to green. Very nice and helpful pro shop staff. Loved the llamas!
Thanks for leaving us a review, we're glad you enjoyed your time at Talamore!
This was my first time playing golf in North Carolina. The rolling hills are definitely something to get used to. The greens were like grease lightening! Make sure you don’t leave yourself above the hole. In fact, do not short side yourself either because you have some time Bermuda to navigate which can be humbling for many... Really enjoyed this round, would certainly play here regularly if I lived nearby.
Thanks for leaving us a review, Kyle. We're glad you enjoyed your time at Talamore!
One of my favorites.
This was always one of my favorites, but not to pleased today. Thanks to GolfPass, I played for free today, the guy that was partnered with me paid $100 plus! I am not sure how they can get people to pay that much, it is a $60 course at the max, in my opinion. Still a great place, but they need to be real about the price.

Great Course, staff not so friendly!
This is our second year playing Talamore. We had 8 guys last year and 12 guys this year. Lorraine from Talamore Golf and Travel has been wonderful. The Talamore course is beautiful and always in great shape. The only negative is the staff in the Talamore clubhouse. Both years we have been less than impressed with their customer service. They always seem rushed and “put out” by us being there. If you can look past this, it was overall a great experience at Talamore. Will definitely be back next year.
Thank you for taking the time to review you last visit to Talamore! Your feedback is valuable, and we hope to deliver your group excellent rounds for many more years to come!
Thank you for visiting us at Talamore Golf Resort. We appreciate your 4-star rating and hope you join us for another round soon.
REALLY nice course. Fun layout & great condition!
I played today and really enjoyed this course. The greens are close to immaculate, fast and fair. Fairways are near perfect. Course has a lot of variety and some interesting challenges too.
We are so happy you enjoyed your round, lrotondo and look forward to your next visit to Talamore!
We're glad you enjoyed your 5-star experience with us, wriston. Please comment or reach out to our team in the golf shop if you would like to let us know more about your great round!
