This was the third time playing Olde Beau. Is was as I remember. Greens, bunkers and tee boxes were in great shape. Fairways were good for the most part. Incredible views from many areas throughout the course. The issue we had was with the golf carts themselves. We had to go through 3 carts before we found one that was safe to maneuver up and down this very hilly layout. The first one was unable to make it up an incline from a standing start and had to back down a hill to get a running start to make it up the hills. We changed out carts at the turn. The second cart was even worse as the brakes would lock up even going at a slow pace down a hill. This was very concerning as there are many steep inclines and sharp turns to maneuver. When we were able to get a phone signal,we notified the pro shop and they brought a third cart out to us. No apologies from anyone in the pro shop for this. Love the golf course but will very likely not return.

Extremely challenging back nine

Olde Beau is not a course for the faint hearted. Even riding in a cart it is physically demanding with many changes of elevation. The mountain views are spectacular, handling the golf cart demands extreme care on some of the very steep cart paths. Number seventeen is a hold one never forgets.

We drove up from Charlotte to play on Saturday. Drive is easy and the course was more than worth it. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in amazing condition. Beautiful views and quiet. Will be back very soon!

what a course! it is not a ordinary golf course. every hole is tee very high or green very high. nice layout and fantastic mountain view if you do not see mountains everyday. green was almost perfect. fairways are little thin and green sides are wet and muddy which was worst part of the course.most tough course I ever played.

Challenging

This is a very difficult course with small greens and narrow, terraced fairways..Little to no room for error. Several greens were blind and very unforgiving. I've never had so many challenging shots in one round of golf. Many of them were from the fairway. This course was a humbling experience for me. Be prepared.

Enjoyable golf

We played around noon and the course was wide open. Great pace of play. Holes 12 & 13 were closed for maintenance so the Pro said to play 1 & 2 again after 18. There are a few holes on this course I’m not fond of & 13 is one of them so that was okay. The greens are fairly firm but very good for putting. They were medium to fast and smooth and true. Course is green and fairways pretty good almost everywhere. There are numerous beautiful views on this course, deer and other wildlife and some very hilly terrain. The higher elevation and lower temperatures are a plus. Beautiful location for golf and enjoyable experience.

This course is always top notch condition. The recent heavy rains did some damage to the course but they are quickly fixing it. The staff is friendly, the location can’t be beat, the green putt true. I love playing here.

Great condition

Played for the first time, and the course was in excellent condition from tee to green. Pace of play was excellent, as it seemed we were the only group on the course at mid-day in the middle of the week. Greens were perfect. Negatives were that the course was having some major repairs done on cart paths (much needed), and we could not play two of the holes. The pro allowed us to play a couple extra holes at the end of our round. The other negative would be all the blind tee shots. Being there for the first time made it very difficult to know exactly what to hit and where to hit. Back nine seemed to have a lot more uphill and downhill holes, which made for some tough lies. Overall, the course is a beautiful, exceptionally well conditioned track. It would be very helpful to have someone who knows the course play with you if you’ve never been.

Different golf

This course is in very good shape but the layout is different than most courses you will ever play. There are many blind shots and elevation changes. The greens are in great shape and are not too difficult.The challenge here is finding comfort off the tee and on approaches. Some of the penalties for a missed shot are very severe. I will play here again because I like the challenges but this place is tough for most golfers.

There are some nice views of the mountains and the green with "Olde Beau" is spectacular.

Fun course with amazing views

Olde Beau has been a favorite of ours for years. The course is always immaculate and the greens always put true. IMO, you won’t find a course in better shape than Olde Beau. It’s a quick drive from Winston Salem and well worth it. Bring your camera and your ‘A’ game. You could get away with your ‘B’ and/or ‘C’ game but then you wouldn’t score as well. ;-)

Beautiful, Challenging Mountain Course

I had not played this course in a couple of year. Found it to be just as challenging as I remembered. A range finder is a Must for this course because of all the elevation changes of the course. The staff was more than friendly. The pace of the round starting out great until we hit a log jam around the 7th hole. It was a lot of waiting the rest of the way in. Course was in excellent shape. Can’t wait to play this course again in two weeks.

Great Mountain Tract

The course itself was in GREAT conditions including the greens and the fairways but the cart paths were in extreme disrepair with HUGE holes in the asphalt.

As this is a true mountain course there are a large number of blind shots and deceptive distances so be certain to take some type of electronic measuring device with you.

Thoroughly enjoyed hitting my pitching wedge (normally 120 max) off a 140 yard par 3 and landing it about 2 feet from the pin & Hitting a 300+ yard drive off one of the par 5 tee boxes when my normal drive is about 260 these days

I played this course when it first opened & this was the first chance I had to play it again some 26 years later. The plaque in tribute to Olde Beau is still in place behind the 15th green. We always hit a drive into the river a mile below off the closely mowed rough area there to pay our respects.
