The Neuse Golf Club

Love this layout. A great mix of short and long holes. Interesting terrain changes. Excellent condition. Week-in week-out, the best golf value for the money in the NC Triangle on GolfNow.

Great course for the money - especially with the GolfNow discount.. The entire course was in great shape.

Pace of play was good, even though the club championship was played that morning. The staff is very friendly and professional.

One of my favorite courses in the area. Fun, fair course with a few challenging holes.

I love the conditions and the layout of the course. I don’t make the 45 minute drive here much because, well it’s 45 minutes.

Today sucked. SUCKED

I wouldn’t of booked knowing that we were the first group out following the last group of the club championship.

For 5 hours we had to watch 5-6 people play and observe 16 of the 18 holes we were behind them. Whoever decided to place the pins today has obviously never played golf. The flags were in all the wrong places. I know it’s the championship, but pros couldn’t get some shots close. Shame on the person who decided there placement. It made for a very long, very frustrating, unnecessary day. I won’t be in a rush to go back, which is a shame.

I really wanted to love this course. The layout is good, but pretty tight. OB stakes everywhere. Premium on finding the fairway off the tee, as scrambling is impossible. My issue was where the pins were cut. All of them were maybe 3 yards of the fringe, maybe, or right on a ridge. 16 was on a ridge 10 feet on the front, and I was 2 inches shy of the hole and it rolled back 5 feet off the green..twice. I enjoy a challenge, but it was brutal today.

Great course greens were sanded so little bumpy but this course is a must play

Just moved to Raleigh after 20 years in the Virginia Beach area and I've been hearing people say this is their favorite public course in/around Raleigh. Now I can see why. Great layout, challenges everywhere, and yet most of the time there's room for error. Course was in great shape -- fairways, greens and bunkers. No one in our foursome had played the course before, and there are many holes where a bit of experience will be helpful -- blind or semi-blind shots. My one gripe was with the pace of play. We teed off about 11:30 a.m. on a Sunday, and were told to play the front in 2:10 and the back in 2:20. Our round stretched to over five hours as we waited on virtually every tee box. Didn't see a marshal ... or a beverage cart. But I'll definitely go back. Soon.

The Neuse is in great shape. Pace of play was slow but this course is in fantastic shape. Tough course but very fair. Highly recommend his course but definitely bring your A game.

First of all, I'm a golf course snob. I admit it. I hadn't played The Neuse in years and decided to give it a shot since my favorite courses are all being aerated. I found a deal on Golfnow for $16 with fees. How crazy is that?

I enjoy the layout at The Neuse but the greens were punched a week ago and were still slow and bouncy. The biggest problem with a $16 green fee is the caliber of player you get paired up with. One of the guys that joined me today declared on the first tee that he is "really getting into golfing". Uh oh. The other guy couldn't see 50 yards ahead of him and we were constantly taking him to his ball and providing yardages. "This way Mr. Haversham".

I normally play 18 holes with my foursome in 3 1/2 hours. This took 5. It was dreadful and the rangers don't care.

Again, There are many great risk reward holes and the greens are often in very good shape. Just be prepared to spend your entire day finding Easter eggs for your partners.

This is the third time I've played this course in the last couple years. It's in great condition particularly given all the rain and other weather we've had recently. I look forward to returning.

The Nuese is an extremely good golf course for the south triangle area (Clayton/Garner area). Conditions are always solid from tee to green. Rounds can be slow especially on the weekends as they don’t employ rangers.

That said, I thoroughly enjoy the challenging layout and consistently good conditions.

Lastly,...buy a hotdog at the turn, you won’t be disappointed for the $5.

Excellent staff. Excellent course. Excellent layout. Excellent conditions. Best course I’ve played in the Johnston County area and I’ve played them all. They’re offering memberships at a very affordable rate right now. Seriously considering joining. Outstanding in every way!

Greens are back. Fairways in great shape. Great bang for the buck!!

The course was packed when we showed up for our 2pm tee time. Our twosome was told to join a single that was making his way to the tee. At the tee, another twosome joined and told us they were also being added so we played as 5. This wasn’t a problem because everyone was decent and played quickly. Finished the first 9 in just over two hours despite the number of people.

The problem was that as we made the turn, a foursome came out of nowhere (they were not ahead of us or behind us the previous nine) and jumped in front of us on 10. They had little experience and were clearly not capable of keeping pace. They didn’t offer to let us play through, but were playing over a hole behind the group ahead of them. The course needs someone driving around and pushing people like this. Second nine took 3:30 s not ok.

Nice course. Pace was very slow. We had 5 in the group ahead of us. Five and a half hours is too long for me.
