Pinetuck Golf Course

Oh Pinefuck #69… it has a special place in my heart. If you’re looking for a well maintained course, it’s not for you. However, if you’re looking for a course where you can bum a lighter for your bowl from the grounds keeper or get hazed by the drunk locals in the clubhouse, you’ve found the right place.

While it’s far from the nicest course, the smell of freedom in there air is invigorating. Before you take off for your round, make sure you get a cart where the brakes lock and the roof is securely fastened on. The cart paths are as bumpy as my nose on a snowy morning ;) and the fairways are longer than the rough. Play this course with low expectations and a golf bag full of party and you’ll have a great time.

I played here 10 years ago and it was much better then. Apparently they were closed for 5 weeks earlier this year due to the owner passing away. The greens were full of crabgrass as well as the bunkers, rough and tees. Sad to see such a nice layout under these conditions and hopefully the new owner can turn this place around.

U definitely get what u pay for... no signed in the course to even mark the holes.. the GREENS ARE NOT GREENS AT ALL WORST ONES IVE EVER PLAYED ON.. will certainly not be back even if it was free... the guy in the pro shop was the only thing I could say was good

The layout and the potential of this place is amazing. However, it’s clear that upkeep basically doesn’t exist. $40 for 18 is highway robbery. BUT - I’d check it out again simply because with the right owners it would be a great place to golf.

Pinetuck's website boasts that they are "often noted in Charlotte golfing circles for having some of the best putting surfaces in the area." I can't imagine someone said this anytime recently. The greens are dead. There were multiple holes where it was just compacted mud, rather than grass, for over half of the green. I play budget courses, so I don't expect this to be Augusta. But these greens have been neglected.

We also lost a number of golfballs in the middle of the fairway, as the grass is long enough to hide golfballs. We would see where the ball landed on the fairway, then have to circle the area in golfcarts to try to locate the ball.

This popped up as a "hot deal" and my friends and I thought "at that price, let's roll the dice and try it." Even at the hot deal price, you're overpaying.

Save your coins this course is Ran down, greens don’t roll. Weeds all over the greens. Fairways are okay but the rough is overgrown and ridiculously not fun to play out of.

First I want to say this is the friendliest staff anywhere. The course layout is fun but that is where the good things stop. The greens were burnt and muddy. There is absolutely no way you can putt on 90% of these greens. I have never seen greens this bad. The fairway grass is as tall as the rough. There are no signs on each hole to give you hole information and the cart paths are the worst I have seen. If you pay over $20 for green fee and cart fee, you are paying too much. If the course could get some TLC it would be a fun place to play. The layout is really unique. Best part of the day was I played 18 holes in 3 hours.

The greens are so bad, several times, we had to just pick up and move on to the next hole.

This course was horrible, I lost multiple balls due to being poorly maintained. I spent more time looking for my ball than ever hitting my ball. The greens were dead with black spots and weeds all over them. $37 was too much for the tee time . I should’ve asked for my money back because I lost about that much money in balls.

I used to play this course all the time. Great last minute booking. Cheap, affordable and worth the value you’re being charged. The course was maintained accordingly however now they have let it go and it is atrocious. Greens are non existent, fairways are not clean or cut. It’s like playing in your backyard and they still charge you the same price they did before. I hate to say it but definitely not going back. It’s a shame to say because the layout is amazing and if it was at least back to how it was I wouldn’t mind paying the price I do for a round of golf for that course as I use to. What a shame that it has gone to waste at this point

I’d played pinetuck before and it’s always been kind of just a practice course. Greens in bad shape and whatnot. But they closed for several weeks to renovate so I was happy to try it out again! Then yesterday, the fairways were overgrown. It took longer to find balls in the fairway than it took to play the round..and the greens didn’t even have grass on them for the most part. The staff is friendly and the course is still laid out like it always was which is great but the conditions of it all is absolutely horrible. Will not return. We drove an hour and change to play and it wasn’t worth the drive, or the $37.

This course is not playable. Yea it’s cheap, but it is genuinely not playable. The greens are actual mud piles filled with crab grass and weeds.

THE STAFF IS SUPER NICE BUT THE COURSE NEEDS WORK. THE GREENS ALTHOUGH BEING REPAIRED ARE BARELEY PLAYABLE. ONE GREEN WAS CLOSED. I FEEL AS IF I SHOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN A VOUCHER TO PLAY A ROUND.

Greens were half mid. Fairways were like the rough at a normal public course. Apparently had been shut down for two months
