Rating 74.1

This is a well-conceived, challenging, yet playable course, with a good reputation among local golfers.

Water comes into play on quite a few holes. The fairways are relatively wide, but it will help to play your shot carefully. A few bunkers lurk in the fairways, ready to create trouble. There are also some greens that require well-placed shots over water from uneven lies. Overall, this is a well thought out, fun and thoroughly worthwhile course.

Peter Tufts, (the gentleman who designed the course), was the godson of Donald Ross and the Ross influence is obvious throughout.

Very nice greens

This was our first time playing 7LCC and we enjoyed playing the course. It is playable for all levels of golfers. We brought a group of 12 golfers to the area and all 12 agreed (which is saying something for this group). From the time we arrived until the time we left the facilities we were made to feel welcome and that they wanted our business now and in the future. Mike, in the pro shop, was a please to work with and the grill & golf staff did a great job of taking care of 12 rather loud golfers. The greens are fast and the layout is challenging yet playable. 7LCC will be on our must play list for years to come. Thanks again Mike for all of the hospitality on Friday!

Very scenic course

My wife and I played here for the first time in almost eight years. Now we're wondering why. We forgot how scenic it is. I think every hole has an elevation change and many have doglegs. It was in great shape and we played in under four hours. The clubhouse staff was very friendly. We'll definitely be back the next time we visit the Pinehurst area.

fun course

This was a fun challenging course. The day we played there was a slow foursome on front but they came out and pace pick up quickly. Many fun holes where you can be rewarded with a good shot if you are even or below hole.

Beautiful golf course that challenges all levels

I have played this course numerous times since moving to North Carolina. The course is always in excellent shape. The staff is friendly and helpful. Food is great. Prices are outstanding.
The course is a challenge for golfers of all skill levels, yet not so difficult that it makes your round not be fun. The course is always green and in good shape. Bunkers are excellent. Greens roll true and consistent. The course has some beautiful holes and is well laid out with a mixture of good holes, easy holes, and good risk reward holes.
I would recommend this course to anyone.
My father in law from Ohio who has played lots of nice courses said after playing 7 lakes that it was his new favorite course and couldn't be quiet about the beauty of the course and the condition.

It doesn't get any better than this!

Played on 10/22 with some friends in the afternoon and was truly impressed with the friendliness of the entire staff. We ate lunch in the Grill and Amanda was our waitress. The food quality was excellent. I had the Fish & Chips (best I've had anywhere) and my guests had the reuben & a burger. It was all served in a timely fashion and we had plenty of time before the round started. The price was very reasonable and we enjoyed the view of the 18th hole. Bob checked us in for our teetime and told us about the course and was very nice and informative. The course is all it claims to be. In great condition, greens are firm & fast and rolled true. The fairways are weed free and the rough was very playable. The attention to detail by the maintenance crew stands out beginning around the clubhouse. I plan to play here as often as possible in the future. Thanks for making us feel welcome and we will definately tell friends to play Seven Lakes when they are in the Pinehurst area.

The course was in very good shape. Pace of play was very slow on this particular day., as we got behind a 9 hole league of seniors. (Really nice people!)

Fantastic golf experience

Kudos to the ground crew who make the course conditions outstanding. The rough is doable, but the greens are challenging. The golf shop staff were exceptional, welcoming all who ventured out to the course that day. Pace of play worked for me. I did not feel rushed on any hole and we never had to wait. Food was very good. Overall fantastic experience. Will come back really soon.

Fantastic Course, increadible Greens (!), one of the TOP I ever played ! ;-))

This is GREAT fun to play !
I was playing many many courses all over the world.... and this is for sure on the Podium of my TOP 3!

Fastest greens I ever played (ok... I´m not a Tour Pro....but... ;-) )

Playing from the back tees ... it´s pretty challenging but not unfair.
Some room for drives... giving some opportunity to go for the green ;-)

Staff is very friendly, had some nice discussion about golfing.. got also nice tips for my next trip around.

There´s no need to visit Pinehurst #1-6... you will get more value for the money here !!

Great Golfing Experience

Our group has played Seven Lakes CC for 10 years as part of our annual golf trip. Every year we play a 36 hole match play tournament on the best course for all players, and 7 Lakes wins hands down. The conditions of the course this year were outstanding and the best of all the courses we played during the week. We will be back next year for the excellent golf and exceptional hospitality!

Diamond in the Rough

I've played almost every course in the Pinehurst area, and this is one of my favorites. It's worked into my schedule every time I visit. The overall condition of the course is always top notch, but the greens are impeccable. As an experienced golfer, the one thing you look for in a golf course is greens that roll fast and true. I can't wait to get back there!

Excellent Course

Our group of about 20 go to the Pinehurst Area twice a year for our golf outing. We have played this course several times. I want to play this course every time. The course and staff are great. They actually say Thank You for Playing our course. Some courses seem to forget we are customers but not this one. Give it a try I think you will love it as I do.

Time and money very well spent!

Although thecourse was private for a while so it was hard Paceet out there, now that it is semi private so many more golfers get the chance at this jewel of the Pines. The course is so tightly manicured its incredible. Pace of play is great also. Course is absolutely stunning. Cannot wait for my next round! Oh yeah the prices are unrivaled even from much lesser municipal courses!
