Deercroft Golf Club

This course went through a rough patch for several years they are now under new ownership, I am originally from this area and remember when this course opened. It has a great lay out and the greens were like a pool table and the fairways were very nice Bermuda. I have played all over and this GC I would put up there with about any I have played the price is a STEAL staff outstanding there are some areas that need improvement but that is mostly just cosmetic between the tree lines this course is very nice!!!!

The new owner Ted! has been working overtime on this course, do a great job of getting it into great shape. nice tee boxes, fairways and greens.

Outstanding value for the money and the course layout is exceptional. The greens are in pristine condition.

If you have played there for a year or so, you have to go. Many improvements have been made and more or on the way, The overall condition of the fairways and greens are vastly improved.

I have played this course several times and it always is a pleasure. Good course conditions, the friendliest staff around and great value for the level of course you get. Greens are in great shape!

This course is trying hard to attract more business. After years of neglect the present management is constantly upgrading the quality of the course. The back nine greens are in great shape and the front nine are not bad and steadily improving. Some of the holes require a very demanding tee shot (accuracy) while others are fairly wide open. The course is suitable for all levels of player.

New management in the last two years has taken this once after thought of a course to what now in a must play. Great layout in a scenic rolling area. The only reason it wasn't a five star rating was the driving range was a little rough. I wish I had a 4.5+ rating to give.
Places check this forgotten gem out as soon as possible.

Thanks

Interesting course design..excellent shape especially the greens..good pace of play..friendly staff...GREAT VALUE for the money!

The course was in great condition! Not a long course but you have to think your way around it. The course is well maintained and I would've rated it 4 out of 5 stars but the cart paths are not in good condition which they admit and they told me they are going to re-do them. Also another reason for only 3 stars was I didn't see the cart girl until the back nine..although there is a water cooler every 3-5 holes so that was fine with me. All in all it was an awesome course for the price and remember this used to be a LPGA stop years ago and was also host to the PGA Q school in the mid 80's.

This was a great time at the golf course. The lay out is very interesting and fun to play. The staff was very nice and made us feel welcomed and appreciated. I will play this course any time I am in the Pinehurst area.

My brother and I went to Deercroft for a fast 18 on a Saturday afternoon. Played in 3 hrs. Nice guy in pro shop. This course has a sporty layout. Greens are getting better, but you have to jam it; if you try to roll it you'll be short. Played it down, didn't pull many really poor lies. Had fun.

The course was very straight forward, rather short from the back tees, I think it was a little over 6500. Hitting driver only three times. The greens were recently punched but really were not that bad. Driving range was a little rough, couldn't hit more than 3 hybrid, and it was like hitting out of the rough. The staff was great. Definitely going back!

Very nice people run this course and they have been working on the course. Removed a lot of trees. Fairways fair condition but goes from fairway to waste area without any real rough. Greens the day we played were shaggy and a bit bouncy. Appeared to have been aerated about 2 weeks earlier and filling back in. I know these guys are working hard and I hopee all goes well for them.
The pace of play seemed slow but that seems to be a problem anywhere there are no rangers coming thru once in a while to be sure guys are keeping up.

This is an older course that had almost died, but is on the comeback. Very well maintained, super friendly staff. You can see the work that is being done. A work of love in progress. I only wish that it was closer to my home so i could play it more often.

This course had been going downhill for several years. It is a very nice layout and Ted and his crew are working very hard, with fine resuilts, to make it a top notch play

Living in the area I play a lot of high end courses. A friend suggested we play Deercroft so we gave it a chance. The area around the course is being renovated but doesn't interfere with your game. The greens were the best I have ever played in the entire area. If you give it a try you won't be disappointed. Additional plus. It's owned and run buy the nicest people. You will have a great time here.

Deercroft is far and away the 'best value' for golf in the Pinehurst area and I am confident it will continue to improve and eventually will become worthy of charging even higher fees. When I travel (from New Jersey) to play resort golf, the one thing that can ruin a day is 'poor quality greens' - well rest assured that will not happen here at Deercroft, the greens are beautiful. I played 5 rounds of golf in 4 days (early May 2013) mostly on Midland Road and Deercroft took a back seat to nobody with regard to the condition and speed of the greens, and combined with smaller than average greens, it makes for a great challenge and will get you ready for the rest of your trip. It is the perfect 'opening' round for a golf trip in Pinehurst especially when 8 guys fly in from various destinations and are looking for something 'not too tough' to start the trip and have the real tough ones planned for later in the week. Please do not be fooled by the yardage on the scorecard, the course plays a lot longer than listed because there are very few (if any) straight holes, the course has quite a bit of character. I have been planning trips for 8-12 guys for 20 years and we have been going to Pinehurst at least once every year for the past 16 years. This is the first time I played here but I will definitely use Deercroft as my opening round (straight from the airport) on every trip going forward. We played on a rainy day and since it was not crowded, we had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with the owner who took over less than 2 years ago. He is a very personable gentlemen who seems dedicated to turning this course around and return it to the form it had years ago. He is off to a great start already with fabulous greens and bunkers that were in fine shape despite the prior 2 days of rain. Sorry for the long review, but since Deercroft is the best $25 round of golf I have ever played anywhere, I felt compelled to write my first review at golfnow.com.

Great golf course to play. Weather conditions made the golf course a bit challenging to play. Will play this course again.

This is a great value with a nice friendly challenge but fair.
Greens held the ball on the second or third shot and putted true.
Staff couldn't have been nicer . Great day!

Greens are slow, but true. Bunkers are pristine. Fairways OK. The current staff is trying to rebuild this once beautiful course and bring it back to life.
