Challenging Course

Very nice course. Challenging. Was a little wet from rain the day before, but seems to drain very well. Still allowed carts on fairways..

Underrated for sure

The course is well kept. The price is good. Great layout. Only negative thing is there isn’t a practice range and the club house grill is closed. But other than that it’s pretty good.

Glad you enjoyed the course, we do have two nets you can hit balls into, also have a large practice putting and chipping area. The Country Club of Whispering Pines, allows our players to go over to their rage before or after to hit balls! Sorry the Filly and Colts were closed for vacation, we did have fresh Boars Head sandwich's and a variety of cold drinks for sale!

Nice Course

I have played here a couple of times now and I enjoy the layout. The course was a bit wet but we had a ton of rain so that was to be expected.

Tricky Green

Great day of golf. We always try to ply here when we visit. The staff is so friendly and let us tee off alittle

Early since no one was in front of us. Green were in great shape but very hard to read. The owners and staff continue to make improvement to the course and it is a great value and always a fast pace of play.
