Nice Course
Played in February so grass was dormant. Nice layout with large greens that putted true. Was cool and windy but still nice to be outside. Our home state (Vermont). Has a foot of snow on the ground and been extremely cold. Course was dry which was a very nice surprise.
Fun and Challenging
This course has a fun and challenging layout. The greens are in great shape and can be tricky. They have done a lot of work in the course and it shows.
Best golf course in the Fort Bragg/Fayetteville area
Always a great time and excellent conditions even winter months
Beautiful Course
Course stays in amazing condition. The greens rolled fast but true. Not a long course and you can certainly live without driver.
Awesome Experience
What a beautiful course! We stopped here on our way from Greensboro to North Myrtle Beach. God was smiling down on us that day. We will be making a more trips to Bayonet. Can’t wait to play here again!

Bayonet at Puppy Creek is worth going out of your way to play. From the man in the pro shop to the course layout and condition, you will not be disappointed. Please,do yourself a favor and play this course.0
The course was in excellent condition, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Looking forward to playing here again
Watch out for rain
Carts don’t have rain covers in the back so our clubs got absolutely soaked in the rain. Can’t believe there was no rain cover on these carts, I’ve honestly never seen that outside of Arizona.
Hidden Gem
Superior course for the money, course conditions were great, can’t wait to play again!
Welcome to N.C.
I was down here from Ohio. Played the course with rented clubs. Conditions were great for the middle of summer. The staff was outstanding and kudos to the grounds crew for keeping the course in top shape. The range, short game area, and practice green were a nice bonus. Thanks for a great day in N.C.
Loved everything about the course
Coming back as soon as I can, o e of the best I. The Sand Hills.
Great course
