The Neuse Golf Club

The Neuse is a fantastic course, great layout demanding placement off the tee and ample strategy. I struggled as it was my first time. My bad shots would have been bad anywhere but even some solid shots were penalized by a poor line. Pay attention to sloping fairways as your ball can quickly run into trouble if shaded too far toward the low side. This is not at all to say the the course is unfair, far from it, just that a particular line off of many tees would be most beneficial.

Scoring aside, I loved the layout and variety of holes. The strategy demanded in whether to lay-up or carry a hazard, flying your ball to the green's proper level, placing your tee shot with regard to the green's location and/or pin placement. It all adds up to a fun, challenging yet fair test of golf.

The greens on the back were spotty in appearance yet putted true. Crews however, were busily addressing the conditions. Tee-boxes and fairways were excellent. The bermuda rough was healthy and sticky, particularly on chips, as bermuda can be.

The starter and pro-shop staff were cordial and accommodating, in all a fine experience and I'll be sure to return.

Course was in excellent condition! Staff was behind us on every front nine holes to ask us to play faster. We were 4 guys teeing together.

Great time at The Neuse! Overall excellent course, friendly staff, and a beautiful 14th.

Played this course many times before it's a great layout course is always in good condition. Members and guests need to work on their Divet repair skills so the hard-working greens crew can keep these Great greens in tiptop shape. Short drive from Raleigh . I will be back.

The Neuse is a challenging course! Be ready to walk and climb though ... several holes are cart path only and are not for non-walkers! All in all, beautiful and enjoyable.

It had been 10 years or so since I have played The Neuse. I enjoy the layout. I was disappointed in the greens, slow and sandy but the rest of the course was in great shape. Very humid day that day but was a good day and would certainly play it again if/when back in the area.

Has everything you'll want in a challenging course. Lots of bunkers, well maintained fairways and true greens. Great for all types of golfers! Only wish the scorecard or hole signs showed the layout for each hole as it was our first time and would like to have known what lay ahead-overall excellent course though!

Always in very good shape. Best course in the triangle for the money.

Course was in very good shape but greens had just been punched and sanded. I understand that is a necessity to preserve them but a little forewarning would have been nice. Otherwise, a very enjoyable round on a solid track.

This is my 5th time playing this course. Just as every time before, the course was in excellent shape. The greens were a little sandy from recent work but still putt well. The course was clean and maintained with no burn marks. I went out as a single that was paired with two other singles, both of which only played 9 holes. On the back nine I got stuck behind a slow foursome that was stuck behind another slow foursome. Other than that, everything was great. For the price, you can't beat this course. I'll be back for sure.

Great course, well maintained. Very enjoyable and a great layout and would love to play again. 5 hours though for a round starting at 8.30am is just way way to slow.

This was my first time playing this course. A little difficult for me but only because this was my second course outside of the one I usually play at. Fairways are a little less forgiving here and lots of sand around the greens. But overall this course is really pretty and will challenge me again in the future. I'm looking foward to it.

The pace of play was a little slow, but overall a great place

the course was in great shape... from t box to the greens..
pretty challenging with a lot of un even lies, and 4 sets of tee boxes for all handicaps. played as a single and had a 3 hour round flat... would def come back and recomend this course

I had heard nice things about the course. It was a nice course. The only complaint was as a first time at the course we had no idea where to hit the ball. They need pictures on a scorecard, hole signs or have yardage book for sale I the golf shop. Other than that it was nice.

Course was in good shape. Had not played it in roughly 10 years. Really should be back in my rotation. Good value, challenging holes, but not overly difficult.

Played this course multiple times and it never disappoints. Great layout and the course is in good condition. Pace of play was good, although we did play at 4:30 on a Sunday so I would expect it to be quick. Great course for the money! Paired up with a couple of members and they were extremely friendly and courteous. It is a fun and challenging layout. Looking forward to making the short trip out from Raleigh again in the near future!!

We were excited to play a different Raleigh-area course. The Neuse was lovely to look at and very challenging. My girlfriend and I were paired with two gentlemen who were delightful to spend a few hours with....but not FIVE hours. Seriously, course management was not a priority at The Neuse. Point in fact - there was a twosome behind us and a FIVESOME ahead of us. Who allows that?
Assure me I can finish 18 between 3 1/2 to 4 hours, and I'll be back.

new to the area and heard a lot about this course. it delivered!

Fairways and greens were very good shape.

Our threesome played in 5 hours 10 minutes on a Friday afternoon. Waited every shot. Course was full, but somebody slowed down play somewhere.
No marshal in sight.

Would recommend Monday through Thursday for a reasonably paced round.
