A nice little gem in the middle of nowhere. Greens in good shape, consistent. Plenty fast and large. Few ball marks. LikeTifeagle Bermuda. The whole property is not overly manicured but the areas in play are well-maintained. Traveling to So. Pines from Wisconsin via a winter in Fl. Nice overseeding at this dormant time. Sooner or later I need to get better chipping out of dormant grasses. We’ll be back.
Nice lay out
Very nice course. It is a bit out in the country.
Nice terrain and many streams. Greens were in good shape and putted nicely. If staying in the Pinehurst area about a 40 minute drive.
I my opinion worth the drive
Very nice layout, course in very good condition even if we played it in décembre.
Should be very interesting in summer,
Great bent greens
Challenging layout but the greens were the real star
Hidden Gem!
I had not played this course for about ten years, but, remembered it as one my golf buddies and I liked. It was nice to see the renovations had improved upon a good thing. The routing was still the same, but the course had a huge improvement in greens, sand traps, and tees. I highly recommend this course.
Fun course for cheap
Fun course that makes you think. There are a bunch of holes on the back nine that force you to hit less than driver and place your tee shot. Good greens and great practice facility
Great course
Lots of great holes out there, and the greens were super receptive.
Nice layout and quiet place to play
Great layout. Tee boxes and fairways were in very good condition. Greens were ok, not bad but not great. Pretty slow.
Overall conditions around the course were good but needs a little TLC around the edges to be really pristine.
Well worth the money. Very good practice range, chipping area, and putting green.
Staff were not friendly but whatever, it was worth playing here.
