The Challenge Golf Club

Course in great condition and a fun play although somewhat challenging. We were second group and were told to tee off second. After warming up and watching the first group tee off another twosome jumped in front of us on the first box and did not play particularly fast throughout the day. Pace of play on front was fairly slow because of this. We were finally able to make a decent enough gap between group in front and behind us by hole 9 and upon arriving on the box at the tenth hole, a single jumped in front of us. Again, we were backed up for the back 9 and were even hit into by the group behind us multiple times. Will not be returning.

I stopped playing here a couple of years ago because the greens had all died. I recently took a chance and what a surprise. New greens are perfect! I’ve been back a couple of times since and although the greens had been aerated recently, I know where they’ll be soon enough. Happy to have this course back in my rotation and an easy drive from Chapel Hill.

Loved the course. Will be playing it a lot more often.

The Challenge is a delight little setup off I-40. The Pro Shop is stocked, but not with an abundance of items. The putting greens are great. There isn't a range, but there are hitting bays, next to the practice area. It is a fun course that has open fairways, and plenty of vegetation to lose balls. A downside is on hole #9 they have a posting about the golfer paying for damaged property. Thought the HOA covers stuff like that.

Let me start by saying that the Challenge is a fabulous course and I always had good rounds playing there with friends and introducing friends who have never played the course. That being said, in this COVID 19 scenario and I having to take care of two immune compromised elderly parents, it is unreasonable to ask me to pay an extra $10 on top of what I have already paid for the round and cart just to have a cart to myself. The policy at the course is two a cart. It is not a deal breaker for me and I will come back to play but I rather walk than have to double up even though I already paid for round and cart.

Being a resident of Florida golf courses can be well conditioned but of little character. The Challenge was delightful change of pace. The hills, trees, rocks, streams and wonderful course conditions made this a

very memorable experience. I highly recommend if you are in the Greensboro area play this course!

On another note. I want commend the outside staff gentleman that found and returned Bushnell laser range finder. The fact that I have worked at numerous courses in central Florida I am acutely aware of range finders not being found or turned in. Compliments to management and the entire staff. Friendliness and integrity are integral parts of great customer service.

Course was in good shape even tho greens had been recently aerated. Super friendly staff. Looking forward to my next round.

The greens have just been punched in the past 2 weeks, so some putts were a little bumpy, but overall the course is in great shape.

Very nice and fun course. Enjoyed the 3.5 hr round

The Challenge is in very good shape. Staff are super nice and pace of play under 4 hours.

They were aerating today, so no practice green, no practice net. Pace was super slow on the first nine, but we breezed through the second nine. Always enjoy the course. Staff is pleasant.

My son and I have played here several times. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They have a great snack bar with good deals for a snack at the turn. The course is well kept. We always enjoy playing here. The staff is usually working on continuing to improve the course.

Just touch up the spot on the green at 4 from all the rain

Wish you weren't nearly an hour away from me or I'd play here all the time. Very attractive layout without being too difficult. Greens rolled fast and true. Staff very friendly. I'll be back soon!
