The Neuse Golf Club
About
Neuse Golf Club was ranked as one of the best public golf courses in North Carolina, second only to Pinehurst. The layout winds along the Neuse River across rolling hills that are dotted with rocky outcroppings. Towering, mature pines accent the landscape as well, especially along the fairways. Each hole provides a dramatically different challenge and unique scenery. Views of the winding river can be enjoyed on almost every hole. A variety of bunkers and doglegs are strategically placed throughout the golf course, demanding both accuracy and thoughtful strategy. The design closely follows the natural contours of the hilly terrain. Dramatic elevation changes guarantee that flat lies will be hard to find. The golf course is no easy feat but the beautiful scenery and interesting hole designs will appeal to any player.

Pace of Play Not Impressive
I've played The Neuse for 25+ years.....it's my favorite course in the Raleigh area. Don't know what happened today (a Friday) but it took us 5 hrs 10 min to complete the round! There was a group ahead that was apparently playing from the wrong tees, spending too much time looking for balls in the leaves or just didn't care they were holding up the course.....got me!
Course is a little damp from all the rain in Nov. but overall in very good condition. I'll be back....hopefully without that foursome ahead of me....we usually play Neuse in 4 hrs during the week.
Awesome! We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing The Neuse Golf Club.
Monrty
Good layout, greens are fat but true. Overall a great experience
Great! Thank you for visiting us at The Neuse Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Outstanding! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at The Neuse Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
No one monitoring pace of play
Just finished a 5 hr round. Cart path only and waterlogged so I knew it would be slow but no ranger monitoring.
Group of yahoos ahead of us had been pounding beers and often seen stumbling. I am all for a good time but when it affects pace of play - you need to pick up and move on.
Clubhouse essentially a superspreader den with NO One wearing masks or keeping any distance.
Glad that The Neuse doesn’t have to worry about COVID. Really kind of shameful.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at The Neuse Golf Club!

Great Day!
Course was in great shape. Greens were challenging! Special recognition to the starter. I left my prescription lens and clip ons on the range. When he was making his rounds on the course, I stopped and asked if anyone may have turned them in, I'll pick them up at the turn. He drove them out to me. Made the game easier. Thank you!
Excellent! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.

Still solid course for the money
Glad to see the ownership change hasn’t had any noticeable impact on course conditions. Fairways, greens, tee boxes, bunkers all in great shape. Was slower than typical round due to a five some that was two groups in front of us was only drawback to the day. Absolutely will be back in the next few weeks.
Excellent! Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.
Great course, not so great covid-preparedness
Booked for 2 people, then they tried charging an extra cart fee, when we requested separate carts-come on guys... you can do better during these trying times.
Wonderful! Thank you for your review. We're glad that you enjoyed our course, but we apologize for the cart situation. We appreciate your feedback and will use your review to help us improve. We hope to have you back again soon at The Neuse Golf Club.
Great great course!!!! Play this little gem
This is a little hidden gem just south of Raleigh. So much value for the $$. Just play it and you’ll see what I mean. Played 3rd week of October and greens where fast and true!
Wonderful! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.
Excellent course, in great shape
A real gem of a course, and fun to play. Very fair test of golf. Bermuda greens very true to putt on. Very picturesque setting with elevation changes, mature trees, valleys, manicured fairways. One of Raleigh areas best courses. I will definitely play here again.
Terrific! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.

Excellent Golf Course - Go Play
Played The Neuse today. I've been looking to get out here for some time now.
The course delivered on all expectations. An excellent test of golfing ability rolled into a fair layout.
Excellent! Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.
Nice Course for the money
Played on 9/24/2020 for approx. $40 each with a foursome of friends. Well, worth the money. Course is in great shape for Sept. with good fairways, greens, and tee boxes. Not a super long course but interesting holes which run along the Neuse river and has some elevation changes. Shot 43+43=86 from the blue tees, so at least I'm consistent on this course. If you're thinking of playing it, go ahead, you're not going to find a better golf deal in the Raleigh area.
Wonderful! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.
