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.

6 Groups waiting on 1st Tee!
A nice course ruined by poor management. No starter. $50 money grab by over booking. 6 minutes in between tee times even during Coronavirus epidemic with no starter resulted in an excruciatingly slow round. I was very disappointed. I feel like I paid $50 to constantly be annoyed.
From a menber
Being a member for four years a the Neuse, there have been alot of changes. The course is for all players.
It challenges you to craft shots. Makes you a better player at other courses.
Great! Thank you for visiting us at The Neuse Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We look forward to having you back for another round soon.
Nice Course
Had a fun round , played as a single behind a threesome. Instead Trying to play thru. I took the time to drive up and evaluate the greens since I never played there. That helped me shot my best round ever. Course was clean and nice. Staff was friendly
Fantastic! 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.
Great condition and the best value around!
The Neuse is the best bang for your buck golf course in the area. Played after it had rained for 3 straight days, and it was wet but still very playable!
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.
Covid-19???
The course was in great shape including the greens. Concern was that they are completely back to normal??? I guess some people are over Covid-19 and they seemed like they sure were. Not a single employee wearing a mask. Zero social distancing although there were signs to remain at a 12 foot distance but no enforcement by any staff members. Full tables in the clubhouse with no separation. Sand traps had rakes, water available on many holes, no upside down cups or pool noodles in the cups. Carts with 2 people riding together. Need I say more? Take your chances if you must. It is a nice course.
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!
Great Course and fun to play
We played the Neuse while on our way down to Myrtle. The courses was in great shape and well worth the money. My only complaint is about the overpriced range balls and snack shop items.
Terrific! 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.
Excellent condition tee to green
Course is in great shape right now. Lush, full fairways. Worth the drive from Raleigh, great value. Pace of play was very good, but it was a Monday. Greens weren’t as fast as I thought they’d be and some were a little blotchy but held and rolled well.
Terrific! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at The Neuse Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you at the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Beautiful Course
Second time playing this course and was able to scoop an absolute steal of a hot deal. Was well worth the money even at full price. Fairways roll great and everything is in great condition.

Great Course
Love playing this course a couple times a year. Money well spent! Greens were a little slower than usual probably due to the 2 weeks straight of rain but were still in great shape.
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.
Challenging & fun!
Well maintained and beautifully laid out course. I promise, this course is worth your money. Greens are fast and not easy, because of that it was challenging and fun for me. If i have to say one bad thing about this course would be crossing the streets from one hole to another.
Fantastic! 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 conditions
I do have to say the course was in amazing shape. I wish the guys that checked us in gave a little more detail on the course as it was our first time playing. Only thing we were not a fan of was a group of 5 playing in front of us. Really only turn off to the course. Other than that it was in great shape, food was good and layout is well above average.
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.
Tough, enjoyable course.
Tough but enjoyable course. Lot of elevation change on the course. Greens putt well. Everything nicely maintained. Several holes right along the Nuese River, pretty cool.

Love The Neuse
One of my favorite courses in the area, and it did not disappoint this time!
I played the Neuse on Friday May 15, 2020. Had a bad experience on Hole #8. It's the par 5. I was walking up on the green to putt my ball, and the group behind me hit a ball over my head. Did not even yell four. My tee time was 9:50a.m. some people have no golf manners. And the group in front of me was too slow. Terrible day on the course. I play on the Senior Amateur Tour Central Carolina and we don't even play this bad. Don't know if I will play the Neuse again.
Terrific! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at The Neuse Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you at the course soon for another 5-star 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.
Very challenging
Greens are huge and run pretty fast. The layout is excellent.
Terrific! 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.
Course was in spectacular shape
Played on Sat afternoon during COVID quarantine times, so was very busy. We played as twosome at 2;30 so was a bit slow.
Course was in spectacular shape, fairways greener and a bit fluffier than most courses in area. Great course layout in super shape.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed from your round with us. Thanks for choosing us!
Greens Are Fantastic
Always a challenge playing here. Conditions were excellent. Greens were perfect and very fast. Layout is beautiful with plenty of room off the tee. Your approach shot is key, most of the holes have deep tough green side bunkers. You earn your handicap if you play this course often.
Fantastic! 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.
