Dissatisfied

I drove to the course on Monday 31 Mar but my golf now voucher was for 2 April. I tried to play for Monday instead for 2 April but the guy at the pro shop said “you have to talk to group now. So I played on Monday because I was at the course. I believed I should have been allowed to play on Monday because the course had been paid already with the 2 April voucher. I came back on 2 April and the pro shop said the voucher did not include a cart! I did not have access to the internet but when I looked at the voucher on group now when I got home it clearly said cart included! I feel I am owed $20 bucks. I never want to play this course again

I came to play on 31 Mar but unfortunately I had bought a tee time for 2 April 2025 . The person at the pro shop would not let me play on Monday because I had paid for Wed. even though the club got their money. As I had traveled some distance to get to the course, I paid for a round on Monday. I came back to the course on Wed and I was told that the golf now round did not include the cart and that I had to pay for the cart. The guy at the pro shop said that the Golf now round did not include a cart. When I look at my reservation, on line when I got home it clearly states cart Include! I feel that the cart fee should be refunded. I never want to play this course again.

Overpriced

I’ve been coming here for 15 years but I will never be back. The course may be the worst value in Wake County. $63 is beyond a joke. They have always been disorganized in the morning, and are not good at sending groups out to optimize pace, e.g., having a twosome wait for the other two to come to the tee but they were nowhere in sight. This forced a foursome 5 minutes later but the starter could have easily sent out that twosome with the group ahead already on #2, but instead this foursome slowed the pace by 45 minutes. This course is not bad, but not for $63, and not with a super slow pace. So many better options not far from here!

Course conditions weren’t favorable after a rainstorm earlier in the week, but that is NOT any fault of the country club. They do great at maintaining it. There were more ground-under-repair spots this time compared to previous times but that means it’s only improving. GREAT course layout, each hole is both fun and challenging. The pro shop is great, I wish they had a better/actual driving range, but you can still get plenty of practice at the net. Easily one of my top favorite courses for a smooth 18, and with the deals they offer it’s always one of my first choices when I’m looking for a round with my friends. 10/10 would recommend! Amazing staff also helped with a sudden time change in plans.

Not Bad for the Price

Dry Grass made it hard to find balls even in fairway fringes. Pro Shop & Starter staff very helpful.

Listing showed NO Driving Range although the “chipping range” Net allowed for good Driver warmup swings.

Always a Good Time

The only negative I can ever say is lack driving range but they have putting and chipping and mats where you cannot into a net. Course was fun, well maintained even after week of rain. Staff is always so polite. Such good food. Always take an opportunity to play here when I can.
