STOP OVER
ALL GOOD EXCEPT TRAFFIC THROUGH FAYETTVILLE AFTER THE GAME
Nice layout. Needs some TLC
Really like the layout and lack of housing on the course. Conditions were very average. Not terrible by any stretch of the imagination but the greens were slow and not very consistent. Fairways were good with sand mix available and used to fill divots. Tee boxes not very good. Lots of bare spots just off the fairways. I don't think course conditions warrant $75 at 2:30pm. I still enjoyed myself and would play again though. I feel they need some manicuring.
Course has been renovated and is now in top condition.
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,
Wow. I played 05-04-24 and it was a gem. No food except hotdog but course and practice area are top not h.
