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.

A Must Play For Sure
The course is very forgiving and has great views of the Neuse at various holes. The fairways and the greens are extremely well kept. The only ill I had during this experience were a couple pretentious golfers behind my group that didn’t realize there was a line in front of us, but there’s always a member like that at any semi private course. Great course and great staff. Got a round in for $25 when it usually cost $45. If you see a deal like that it is most definitely worth the drive from Raleigh.
Slow play
I couldn’t believe they allowed walkers on a Sunday. It was a twosome in front of us and they clogged up everyone.
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.

Course is wet on most fairways due to heavy rain recently but overall in not bad shape. Will definitely be back to play again...

Great for the Hot Deal
Great value for the hot deal I received from golfnow.com. if I had of paid full price for the round which had been 35 dollars I would have been very disappointed. The course was very wet and dows not drain well. The fairways were cut very close and the line was better in the rough then fairway. Greens were nice and rolled very fast but I love bent grass greens. Staff was not very friendly. All that was said by guy at register in pro shop was name and time. Then it was handed me the receipt and here u go. No have a nice round or tell me that half the course was cart path only. Figured that much out by playing. Was not a busy day so pace of play was great.
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!
Preferred lies
Track still in Excellent shape for this time of year . Hats off to grounds keeper. Obviously little to no roll out on your drive but green are still in the best shape possible for this time of year. Good pace of play and welcoming staff . Overall experience will guarantee that I’ll return and consider membership.
Outstanding! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thank you again for the great review and we hope to have you join The Neuse family soon.
Hidden Gem ... a must play if you like a challenge!
Friendly and welcoming staff . Club house has everything you could need or want with fare prices. Golf carts have usb charging ports .... very helpful when Your phone is dead and need a charge ! The fairways have some wet spots but that’s to be expected this time of the year . Greens still in very good shape for this part of the year. I’ve played here many times and they keep it in tip top shape year round. Great value for the money and can be challenging . You’ll use almost every club in you bag . Book a tee time and play here and you won’t regret it ! Only con is the bunkers need some love and are not consistent through out .
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.

Excellent Greens
Neuse is in winter conditions....fairways a bit soggy, some sand traps muddy....greens are great! Some of the holes were CPO, some 90 degree rule. Great layout and a friendly staff. Playing in under 4 hrs is always a good thing! A good play for all skill levels if they play from the correct tees.
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.
Will repeit !!!
One of the best golf experiences I ever had.
I am writting from the Canary Islands, and visited this golf course three years ago in a friend's golf trip, it was amazing, fantastic
I am writing now, three years later because this afternoon I was remembering happy moments of my life, this COVID it's getting me crazy, so I tried to see what I could find from The Neuse golf club on Internet.
Watching it again made fill better.
I promise that I will come back for playing again there.
Favorite Course
The Neuse is my favorite place to play in the area, even though there are many courses closer to my home. The layout is interesting and challenging and the course is always in good shape.. I highly recommend The Neuse for anyone looking for a great place to play, at a reasonable price.
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.
Late December
Course in poor condition, but not surprising given the time of year. Greens were good and still fast. But they have their work cut out for them as far as course maintenance. Cart path only on some holes did not save conditions, so word out to course greens keeper, go get em.

Love this course
I always love playing the Neuse. The layout is excellent, the staff is always friendly and the pace of play is usually good. I live 31 miles away but well worth the trip.
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.
Excellent Greens
Neuse is in winter conditions.....dormant Bermuda fairways, rough isn't too long but dense. Greens are immaculate.....not too fast but very true. Sand traps were iffy....some had standing water, some were compacted sand (had rained a lot 2 days prior). Overall, a fantastic layout......never disappointed going to the Neuse!
