Great value for the money
Great value for the money. I found the course in excellent shape and very fair yet challenging. I will be going back soon.
Great value course with fun layout
Course is under new ownership and improvements are being made. New carts and several improvements around the course. Not crowded. Great value!
Great course with some challenging hole. The greens will keep you honest. Great staff and very helpful. Highly recommend this course.
Amazing
This course was awsome. The layout was really good. The holes were all very different l, the greens were fast but true, and we were the only group out at a 3 pm tee time on Saturday, so we were able to relax and enjoy.
This course was in great condition
After playing this course several times I’ve had nothing but great experiences. The golf course is well kept with a great layout and solid greens.
The staff was not friendly the greens were great fairways looked like my front yard grass no grass to hit off of dirt track
Layout
Greens are fast and true some a bit bumpy but overall nice course
Good course, wrong time.
The layout and design of the course is well done.
Due to large amounts of rain in days ahead of play the fairways were in pretty rough shape. Very muddy and some places just completely neglected. Hard bunkers full of earlier.
The greens however appeared to be the one part of the course that was properly maintained. They were in pretty great shape.
Overall I enjoyed my round on the course and I look forward to coming back once everything is in better condition.
This course is great for practice and taking your time golfing.
The greens were in good shape but overall course needs some work- back nine in better shape than the front... front very little grass. However, good course to practice your game as you can play at your own pace and play 2 balls without anyone behind you. The front 9 has some very interesting holes! I do enjoy playing the course and the staff is very friendly.
Great course for the price
Reasonable rates. Friendly folks especially Roger. Good layout and fast greens. Fairways should come in during the Spring. Tuff pin placements. Overall, this course and staff is very good! It's especially priced for everyday golfers who might be on a limited budget. Best kept secret in the Pinehurst area.
Good afternoon round
The course is undergoing a lot of upgrades and work to help with drainage. Some of the fairways still need to be evened out. The back nine is in better shape than the front. I look forward to seeing what it looks like under the new management and once it wakes up from winter.
