The Divide Golf Club

Weather - sunny in the 40’s

Rained two days prior to tee time.

Course layout -good for all levels of play

Tee boxes - most were ok and level...some soaked ( poor drainage )

Fairways - wet / poor drainage.

Greens- in need of repair...very poor condition

Driving range - lots of space and great grass to hit off

Customer service - average ...not rude but not friendly.

Overall a fun course to play. If dry I am sure the fairways and tee boxes will be ok, but the greens are in pretty bad shape. Just do not book if there was recently rain.

Great price for a Sunday! It had been a while since I'd been to The Divide, and the value for the price was certainly worth it.

However, the majority of the greens had bare spots that had been covered with sand, then painted green. From the tee box or fairway they looked great. But putting through a pseudo-bunker more than half the time will make me think twice before coming back, unless the price stays low.

Although it had not rained in several days, the course was very soggy...actually abandoned 3 balls because they were either in standing water or there was too much water/mud between the path and where the ball landed.

Having said the above, I've played this course under ideal/dry conditions and it was just fine. Drainage is clearly an issue on about 1/5 of the fairways...a few dump truck loads of topsoil would help on one or two especially. A couple of the greens were in terrible shape, again due to the water logged nature...one in particular had little grass...brown, green or otherwise.

I interacted with 4 staff members and 3 were very friendly and helpful. Due to the health issues of 2 of our group and the fact that the other 2 are care givers of very elderly/sick individuals, we requested an extra cart...the fee was $10 which is about average (other courses range from $6 to $12).

The takeaway from all this is that if you get a round very cheap, be prepared and enjoy the day. But if paying full pop or just slightly discounted, make sure things have dried out.

Love this course and the layout. Nice par 3 and 5s and short par 4s. It had rained quite a bit the day before and the whole course was sloshy. Greens being regrown etc. it was so saturated I was surprised it was even open. Can’t wait to see how this course looks after repairs are completed. I will definitely go back. Great value for the money.

I played yesterday and teed off at 12:30. Website shows "Renovations complete" but doesn't tell you the greens are not in good shape at all, nearly unputtable. Price didnt reflect crappy greens either. We started on the back and got to the first par 3 which at 53 degrees and 1:30 was already tarped over. Disappointing since no mention from the clubhouse at checkin that they were going to tarp the green at 1:30 in the afternoon. Made it to the second par 3 an hour or so later and it was tarped over. Called the clubhouse who said they put tarps down early because it takes a while to put the tarps down. 1:30 with 4 hours of daylight left and tarps were down. Guy in the pro shop apologized and told us to play as many holes as we could after 18 to compensate. Not happy about it but that was the only offer. Made the turn back to play 1 again and a cart guy came running up to us and told us we had to have the carts in in 20 minutes. Played there several times and by far worst experience with the bad shape greens with zero notice and no pricing adjustment and then the closing of 2 holes with no notice and the cart crew and the pro shop not caring. If there are other choices even for more money they are worth it. Avoid this course for now.

From the carts to mud the course is just horrible. The greens are non-existent and overall course is just really bad.

Green we’re unfortunately very bad and fairways were very soggy.

Beautiful course, easy to manage overall. First time playing the course and I was just amazed by some of the greens. Beautiful! The 18th hole is gorgeous and challenging. Have fun.

Course is a beautiful layout with very relaxing views. Was disappointed that greens were freshly seeded; greens were in terrible condition the front nine but much better on back 9. Still felt I overpaid with the poor condition of the greens.

Greens were terrible condition..fairways okay, heavy rain this week, nothing course could do about the standing water..however, with the greens in such poor condition they should have discounted the fee..

Course has potential to be very nice. A lot of mud and tons of leaves on the course but just due to the season. Greens haven’t settled in yet from repair so they are extremely slow.

We booked online, after paying our greens fees we were told that the greens were having problems and they weren’t mowing them. Not only were they terrible but on several holes after the very slow foursome in front of us left the green, two maintenance workers were spraying the greens, so we had to wait some more. If I had known about the greens ahead of time, I wouldn’t have booked this course.

Sorrythis review is a little late!just wanted staff to know we had a great day at the Divide!The gentleman at counter was very nice and allowed us to play 2 extra holes at the end of the day which was much appreciated by my group!keep up the good work and we will see ya soon!Thanks again for a great day golfing!!DR

We were all disappointed with this course. I understand that they are trying to fix things, but they should not be charging $52 for a round of golf on a crappy course while they do. The greens are terrible and a lot of the fairways are sparse. I have been playing golf in Charlotte for almost 30 years and I have never paid over $50 to play a public golf course. If you pay that amount you deserve a much better course than the Divide.
