Eagle Nest Golf Club

My friend and I drove down to MB from Raleigh to attend family event. We decided to try and sneak in a round before the event the following day Friday. We left a little later than we had hoped but still figured we would be close to finishing before sunset at 5:07. The guy on the phone was terse, he wasn't rude but he wasn't pleasant. Same when we arrived for our 1:30pm tee time. There was no break on the rate in fact I could have booked online for much less. We were happy when we started off as there was at least a hole and a half open in front of us. However, by the third hole it was clear we had caught up to the group(s) ahead of us. We connected with a single to hopefully slow us down a little without going at a snail's pace. Unfortunately, we had to wait on every shot on the front nine. The back opened up as the group ahead dropped at one point. We were optimistic we would get in 18 as the final two holes looked very interesting. We were in the process of teeing off on the 17th hole at approximately 4:45pm. As we were getting in our carts the horn blew 3 times. I looked at the sky and my companions and said what's that all about? We got to our tee shots and the cart guy started yelling "Bring it in!" Again this was with about 20 minutes of sunlight left. We started rushing to finish 17 a par 5 so we could play 18 a par three. Needless to say we didn't get our best results as neither my friend nor I had ever played this course. My friend quit, I tried to finish, but hit a fantastic shot only to discover the entire green was protected by water . We got to the green and here comes the cart man saying "Bring it in" and quickly drove on. Nothing was mentioned about any requirement to have the carts in by a certain time, by either the cart guy/starter nor shop person; nor was there any discount! Obviously, this left a VERY bad taste in my mouth and there are too many much better golf courses in the MB area to patronize this place ever again!

Played on a cold and windy day, but it did not detract from a great day of golf. Didn't score that well, but I can't blame the course for that. I was an enjoyable day with family.

Course and people were great. Portable toilet during renovation was disgusting.

Price was very reasonable. The fairways were in good condition. The greens were in good conditions but very slow. Bunkers were unraked with lots of footprints. Clubhouse toilets were being renovated so only portable toilet’s available. Some interesting holes but mostly flat and straight with few hazards so not many risk reward shots. Great choice for an inexpensive practice round.

The course is nice. Conditions were good. However, pace of play was terrible. I never understand why there are individuals helping with bags, a starter, but no one monitoring pace of play. We were a 4 group. 5 hours round and could not finish last 2 holes due to darness.

Fairways were a big shaggy and uncut. Greens were fast but bumpy a bit. Interesting layout. I would replay with better conditions. Friendly staff.

They claim to be able to stretch it out over 8000 yards but why? Played whites at 6400. The last three holes are indeed the hardest on the strand. Water only comes into play on those. You can really bomb driver on most 4a and 5s. 3s are rather short except 18 which can play 260 (!) Staff was very friendly and will respond to slow players if you inform them of it. Fairways in great shape for November and greens (also excellent) have tricky undulations. Bunkers can be very penal so watch out. Definitely gonna play Eagle Nest again soon.

The course was built in the 70’s and is classic with lots of dog legs and water to challenge you. The course was in fine condition but the greens had been recently punched which is why I gave it a four rating. The 16th and 17th were excellent finishing holes and very challenging. It was packed with over 200 players so the pace of play was slow. Overall I enjoyed my round here and will come back in the future.

The course was in decent shape, my only problem was that the greens were sanded.

Everyone was pleasant and helpful, but as always, there's that one employee who acts as if their title as starter makes them king.

I liked the layout of the course, 17 and 18 were the most enjoyable holes.

Not a very hard challenging course but great scenery and well run.. from the minute you get to the parking lot they are unloading your clubs, checking you in for your tee time.. starter calls your name, explains the rules of the course and you’re off.. pace of play was excellent and Marshall rides around to see to it…wish there wasn’t as much sand but just bad timing on playing it becuz they recently aerated the greens…we had an early morning tee time so noon or afternoons would be a better time to play… greens still rolled very well and were in great shape… fairways were fine also… good deal for the Buck and the finishing hole is where you should take your group pic… A+ to the staff….

Course was good cart paths were terrible Marshall kept everything moving a lot of hills so sometimes we got hit into

For the most part this course has nice wide fairways. A few holes have water in play to be careful. Played on the fall. Course was in good shape. Recommend for average players.

Booked 1:42 tee time , got there early loaded up and on cart by 1:30, the started waived to come down so I tell them are name and tee time and he says we are waiting for 2 more. I said it’s just 2. He then says 4 some at 150 can go ahead of us. I questioned it so he pointed his finger and yelled at me explaining he can do what he wants !! Ladies stay away !!! Will never ever golf there again !!!
