The Neuse Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE
This is a must-play course if you're withing 50 miles of it. Although the course was challenging, it was very fair. The staff was great, the food was very good, and the course is in fantastic shape, even though the greens were still bumpy from punching. I will definitely tell others and will certainly come back!
Good time at the Neuse
Greens were in great shape tee boxes great shape. All around a good round of golf. Definitely will be back
Great experience!
Had a very fun time playing this course for the first time. Can’t wait to play here again!
Love the layout
Challenging track, very hilly, not too tight, a few doglegs you can play safe or cut the corner. Reachable par 5s for many. Tee to green course was fabulous. Greens slower than I’m used to but they looked about 2-3 weeks out from aeration and we’re coming in nicely. 4 1/2 hr rd not the worst or the best pace of play. All in all would definitely recommend
Course in great shape
Greens were excellent. Only complaint is back 9 was closed which was disappointing.
Front 9 only as back 9 closed for maintenance
Only able to play front 9 twice. Back nine was closed for aeration
Great course. Sand on greens
Love this course. But there was so much sand on the greens that they were absolutely unpredictable regarding speed.
Greens under maintenance
Course was great other than all the greens having sand on them. So give it a few weeks and probably would be great to play.
Beautiful layout but…
This course is by far my favorite layout in the area and used to always be in great shape. What happened to the greens? I understand it’s hard in the golf business but to be charging premium rates $58 at 3:40 in the afternoon is unacceptable.
Greens needed help
It was a wonderful day for golf.
Tea boxes were in great shape, the fairways and the rough were in beautiful and great shape however the greens were extremely bumpy they just recently been painted green with fertilizer, they were so rough my playing partners refer to him as old afro turf.
I know the greens are just temporary and the poor condition that they were in, really looking forward to going back to the course in a couple weeks to play again.
Not the Neuse I remember
Long story short the greens suck. Not sure what happened, but I won't consider playing there for months minimally
Greens are Sketchy
Neuse is my favorite course in the RTP area. Great, fun, fair layout. The greens had been top dressed, which was no sweat to me, but I noticed many of the greens were extremely bare of grass.....I don't know what the reason is but it was disappointing. Six weeks ago, the greens were in excellent condition.
Neuse could stand adding some more sand to their bunkers.....the few I found were very thin on sand.
Fairways/rough were in great condition. Won't be going back for another 6 weeks.
Came for the wicked fast greens
Great course all around. They aerated the greens a few weeks before so the greens were still sandy/patchy spots. I wish they told us at the pro shop but they were still wicked fast and the rest of the course was in good conditions. 4 hour round with less than 10 mins of waiting on others. Will be back again fasho
