A sleeper
I have been living in the Pinehurst area for the past eight years. A great value. New ownership is taking pride in their investment by providing upgraded conditions and excellent and caring customer relations.
Continued to get better
Wasn’t a huge fan of the layout of the first couple holes but not only did the layout get better, but the quality continue to get better as well. Great golf course for a great price and I highly recommend it.
Great Value
Great Layout. Modest Length. Green complexes challenging
Course is coming along
The course is coming along and getting a lot better. The née owner is putting a lot of money in the course.
A fair Sandhills course
Teed off ~10am on the July 5th "holiday" Monday and only took 3.5 hours to finish as a two-some. Possibly Covid casualties, but there were no Starter, Ranger, drink cart, or water coolers on the course. Unsure about snack bar -- didn't stop at the turn. It's listed up front as having no range, but they did have a net to hit into by the practice green which was helpful. Course was in average shape -- some GIR here and there, a couple bunkers with standing water or hard-panned, etc. -- nothing terrible.
Plays as short as the yardage indicates, if not shorter. Interesting mix of five par 5's and five par 3's for a par 72 course, and I'm not sure if some of the 5's needed to be. Driver + PW and Driver + 6I into two of them from the white tees. Course had a good mix of holes and layouts though. You weren't hitting Driver off of every tee, but at times it was difficult to know what distance to target into a dogleg or avoid OB (didn't ask if a course book was available). Greens were firm and I feel like they would have run fairly average except for the amount of slope in most -- led to some tricky down-hillers and slow up-hill putts which helped it play more challenging than the yardage.
I'd come back again but play the blue tees even as a 15+ handicap. It's a better value than a comparably priced course in the Raleigh area.
Whispering Woods
Very nice course. Greens were deceptively fast. But, the greens rolled very true.
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.
