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.

The NEUSE the drive was worth it
I have been wanting to play this course for a very long time. It is a 1 hour drive from my home so I finally reserved Tee Time and made it happen on 7 May. The drive was worth it. The Neuse did not disappoint. Amazing course and I look forward to playing it again. I recommend all Golfers to visit The Neuse.
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!
Nice change
Fairly hilly with lots of awkward lies. Too many blind shots if you haven’t played here often . Fairways have severe slopes. Course conditions were good. Very large greens.
They have gone overboard with the social distancing . Had to plead with the pro shop to get inside to use the restroom.
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!
Course is in fantastic shape
I've played the Neuse many times, and it's usually in very good condition, but yesterday was one of the best....except the range. The greens are fast, but not overly fast, and they rolled very true. The fairways are very green, but still very firm, so you'll get a lot of roll but plenty of spin into the greens, which don't hold low shots without spin. The staff was very friendly, the carts were in great shape, and there were plenty of them, even with the one cart per person rule. The only complaint I had about the entire day is the driving range. The area marked off for hitting had virtually no grass and was very rutty and hard to find a good stance. There are plenty of other areas for hitting, so there was no reason for this. Fix that, and it would be perfect.
Excellent! Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time and we appreciate your feedback on our driving range. We hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing The Neuse Golf Club.
The Neuse
Didn’t get a chance to play! Was scheduled for 12:40.. go there about 12:25. Checked in and waited. Waited til 1 and asked when I would be ready to go and they said another 40 mins.
Thank you for your review! We apologize that you didn't get to play your round with us. Due to social distancing, we're doing single riders in our carts, which has limited the number of carts available at certain times. This was the cause of the delay in your tee time. We appreciate your feedback and we'd love the chance to speak with you to try and rectify the situation. Please reach out to our Head Golf Pro, Brad Thorksy, at 919.550.0550 at your earliest convenience. Thank you again and we look forward to speaking with you.
Great round of golf. Course was in great condition. Greens were a little fast for the front 9 however there wasn’t much sun out, now when we got on the back 9 the greens slowed down due to the sun

Outstanding day
What a great day for golf. Played with some members. Jean and Joe and they toured the course for me. Hadn't played there since early 2000 and it's every the bit as professional as ever.
Thank you for the wonderful day.
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.
Play here now
This course right now has a huge jump on other courses in the area. The greens are rolling through the fairways are in great shape and the roof is starting to get thicker. Will definitely come back and play again soon
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.
Good shape
Course was in very good shape for this early in the season (remember last year????). Fairways are greening up but very tight. Greens are fast with usual undulations which are often a mystery. Course was mostly deserted and still took 4 hrs, which just seems to be the pace of play there whatever the day, time, or pandemic.

Excellent Mid March Conditions
The Neuse Golf Club has been a go to of mine for years ! Greens were smooth and had a nice pace.. Played in just over 3 hours ! Can't beat the GolfNow rates !
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.
It’s not the course
No issues whatsoever with the course. One of my favorites. But, groups stacked on every hole, 2 riders per cart. Not enough concern shown for customer health and well being during a serious pandemic. Golf should be a safe haven right now and a chance to get some fresh air. Please limit daily # of players and one rider per cart, you know ‘social distancing’ . Might cut into profit but hey, might save some lives.

Greens rolling great
Course is in great condition considering the wet weather we have had nonstop all winter. Greens are in unreal shape. Go play.
