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.

Like the challenge
I like the layout because it’s one of the more challenging courses in the area. Very nice condition although greens are slow and a little tough to read. Great new carts with gps. Also some traps need sand
Very nice course. Challenging holes and very unique. Had to cross residential roads a lot but no big deal as we couldn’t wait to see what lied ahead of us. Can’t wait to play this course again.

Awesome Condition
Played in under 3 hours on a Monday. Course is in excellent condition...
I've seen the greens faster, but the pace was just right for a mid-handicapper.
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.
Running out…
Of superlatives about this course. Best public greens in the area. Challenges every part of your game. Would play every day if I could.

Didn’t get to go play.
Had a tee time for 8:20. Showed up ten minutes early. They told me I would being playing with three randoms. They had already teed off. When I got to where they were they had already picked up a 4th. They couldn’t find anyone else to put me with. Instead of letting me play solo they instead just gave me my money back or said I could play at 1:00 p.m. Just really frustrating that they wouldn’t just allow me to play or try to work me in since I already had a booked tee time. A waste of my time and money. I won’t be returning.

Good and bad
Overall, it is a great course, but the greens were still under maintenance. We putted on plastic blue flakes. My whole group couldn’t get a read on any of the putts that resulted in multiple double/triple bogeys. A simple left to right upon a two foot putt resulted in a nine foot downhill many times. The governing speed on the golf carts based upon the position of the GPS, needs to be turned off. If a golfer yelled “Fore” and I couldn’t get out of the way, there’s no saying. The GPS system on the carts are cryptic basic algebra to find the distance. A^2 + B^2= C^2. A is the distance to the hole. C is 48 yards and B is 208 yards upon the GPS meter in the woods. How far do you have to the green before you three putt?
Hi, 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.
Beautiful golf course.
Absolutely beautiful. Greens and fairways were perfect. Fast greens and very receptive to approach shots. My only issue was my bad knee which needs replacing was tough getting to the greens and tee boxes which had high rolling hills. Not the course’s fault lol. Loved it here.

Pace of play here is terrible
I enjoy this course, as I have played here over 10 times, but I honestly don't remember the last time I was able to play without skipping several holes. I've had to skip, on average, 4-6 holes each time and it's just not worth it anymore. I've never seen a ranger on the course making sure people keep pace of play. Maybe I'll go back if they get it under control.
