Nice Layout

Strength is layout - - built into the beautiful trees of Pinehurst area, N.C. Some holes were stunning! Some holes were unique with blind shots and holes requiring precise shots around lurking trouble.

Friendly staff who were excellent.

Course condition was OK but not quite as good as I expected. Greens were very good; tees OK; fairways OK .

Grass Grass Grass

Got a round in today course called Whispering Woods Golf Club in Whispering Pines, NC. If you're not from here you probably don't know, well I gonna let the cat out the bag don't even go play there! Terrible course no grass on Tee Boxes, and Fairways, greens were amazing lightning fast. Just getting on the green was today's challenge lol. Ended up shooting an 85 not bad for the 3rd round of the year. Worse Golf course I've played in a while. Time with my Son priceless!

Grass is not growing as of yet due to soil temps, not hitting desired temp. You are obviously not aware of this. Just read ALL the reviews.
