Deercroft Golf Club
About
Deercroft Golf Club is located just 20 minutes South of Pinehurst has twice been the site for PGA qualifying schools as well as PGA Senior tour qualifying events. Readers of golfweek have voted Deercroft one of "America's Best Courses" for six consecutive years.
The course features lush fairways, manicured bent-grass greens and views that are out-of-this world.
Probably because of the few extra minutes' drive necessary to reach the course, the green fees are among the most reasonable in the area, especially when you consider the quality of the golf.

This course is beautiful.
The golf course has great fairways and the greens rolls true. The staff is great and the price to play is affordable that you can enjoy mentally the game. Lol
Nice
Ted has made HUGE improvements to the course. Keep up the good work!
Very nice course
Had a great time playing the course. No hidden hazards. Very fair. Greens and fairways were excellent. Nice layout. Lady in the Pro Shop was very friendly and helpful. She even greeted us after our round and inquired about any problems we encountered. They have some local rules that keep play smooth and quick. Will return to play the course again.
Deercroft
Super friendly staff. The greens were in excellent shape- most of the area courses had experienced difficulty with the hot summer.
Course & staff.
The course was in great condition. The staff was super friendly & accomadateing. I will play it again.
hidden gem
I really like this course. Its fair ways have up and down right and left Pinehurst style fairway bunkers very nice. Green shapes very nice but little bit slow pro. Pro shop staff is very kind.I will come back soon
Course is coming back to life
Ted and his staff are doing a great job bringing back this course. I have played here in the past and it was in bad shape. The changes they have made are great. They took a lot of trees out and the natural areas are very pleasing to the eye. It is not an easy course, but it is fun. I really enjoyed my round and will be back in the near future. Keep up the good work.
Great value all around.
Most enjoyable round of the five during our stay in Pinehurst area. Staff was over the top friendly and most helpful. We will return here every time we are in the area.
Play Here!!!!
This course is great for any caliber of golfer. The layout is fun and beautiful to look at. Staff are extremely helpful and make your experience worth while. I could not help but think it is like playing the restored pinehurst number 2. Play this course. TRUST ME!! Deercroft is the sandhills best kept secret.
Great find in The Sndhills.
We picked this course off of Golf now as I was driving to SC later in the day and this was well on the way from our home in Vass. We were met by a very friendly fellow from Boston (I didn't catch his name). He was very informative about the course. Next we met Ted, he too was very pleasant and helpful. We really enjoyed this course, it was week taken care of and interesting. We will definitely be back to play again.
Very Nice.
The course was in great shape. The staff there could not be any nicer. will play here again.
GREAT FIND
Just returned from our annual trip to the Sandhills, decided this year to venture down the road to play Deercroft and are extremely glad we did. We were met in pro shop by the Head Professional Ted Robinson, a true pleasure to say the least. The time he took to brief us of his course before we teed it up was very informative and actually got us excited to test the layout.
The layout was better than he described.
All I can say is go give it a try, you will find the same.
Ted has recently taken over the course and made many improvements, we look forward to playing it again next trip, as we will make it a must play every year.
What A Deal
Great Course, Great Staff, Great Deal. Truly a Pinehurst-style golf experience with the scrub on the sides of the holes and some great bunkering. Peaceful experience without many homes on the course - most holes with no homes at all. Great elevation changes to keep things interesting.
Nice Layout
The greens were airiated just one week before we played, so greens were bumpy and a little sandy. They were rolled the morning we played and putted fine, just a little slow.
Staff was outstanding, explaining course layout and dogleg holes. The course played fine tee to green, just needs TLC around sides of fairways. I will play again for same price !!
Nice Course
I paid $25 on Golfnow which made it worth it. Course is like many NC courses with sand everywhere. Ive heard they are making improvements. The course is fun with some wide open holes and some pretty tight ones off the tee. Little pro shop but the employees are incredibly nice and welcoming. They absolutely what you to come back. Some of the cart paths might be difficult to follow if you aren't paying attention. Nice putting green and decent driving range, can't hit driver though. Some greens are small. Greens are in good shape but pretty slow in places. Some of the toughest putts I've ever had, almost impossible to read. It was quite odd. If you drive the ball well you can score here. Nice fairways and nice greens. I would go back.
BEST DEAL IN THE SANDHILLS
BEST DEAL IN THE SANDHILLS AREA. FAIRWAYS WERE IN GOOD CONDITION AND GREENS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. I REALLY ENJOYED PLAYING THE COURSE. YOU WILL USE ALL YOU CLUBS.
Great design, wonderful condition
I have played this course many times over the last decade and it has always been an enjoyable course. Under the supervision of the current management the course is in incredible condition. Well worth the drive and a great value. Quintessential Pinehurst area course - lush fairways, firm and true greens, rough enough on the edges to make you focus on hitting the fairways. Looking forward to my next round
Worth the trip
This course is a great layout and worth the ride from Southern PInes. Under new management, the very friendly staff made us feel very welcome. It is clear that they are working hard to make this course even better. Interesting variety of holes with good greens. Enjoyed our vista.
Outstanding value!
I have played this course in the past several times. On my most recent visit I found a noticeable effort to improve the conditions. The new owner is making a conscious effort to improve the overall experience from both a golf and service perspective. If you want a slice of Pinehurst at a fraction of the cost I highly recommend you give this course a try.
Great greens
Have played here in prior years when it seemed more like a muni. Must say that they have some of the best greens I've seen in the area in the two months that I've been here. Hope the improvements continue.
