Mid South Club

I played Tobacco Road, Talamore, Pine Needles and finally Mid South during the holiday at the end of 2024. TR is of course on a level that is off the charts, but Mid South was the course that really exceeded my expectations. It was spectacular. The whole course was not only beautiful but the variability of the holes just made it a lot of fun. It was tough but very fair. Some of the greens are very challenging and hitting the wrong side of the green can make life very dificult but that is what makes it so much fun. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming. I actually think this could be the best course I have played in the Raleigh/Pinehurst corridor. The variability of the holes and the very challenging greens would keep me coming back to this course every week if I could. I loved it.

First time playing this course. The condition was great for winter golf. It rained the day before so cart path only and got no roll of the tees. enough elevation changes to keep you guessing of your club choices. Greens were in good shape. 18th is a very nice finishing hole... Will definitely play again if coming back to the area.

great course. staff friendly. course was a bit wet due to recent rain but still very playable. only problem was very slow play. groups we’re playing like it was final round of the masters. when you have two people playing and come up on a foursome and there playing from 3 different tees you would think they would allow you to play thru. not here! i believe people need to be reminded of allowing faster players to play thru. had to leave due to darkness. it took 5.5 hours to play 14 holes.

Great layout, course was in really good condition for the time of year. Pace was a little slow but absolutely worth it!

The course was in beautiful shape. Only negative was pro shop refused my son a junior price because we went through Golf now app. Still got a great price but the gentleman seemed bent that I used to golf now app. Other than that golf course was beautiful and the rest of the staff great!

Mid South is an unbelievable golf course available for public play through GN. It plays fast and inviting to rip driver off the tee on almost all the Par4’s and Par5’s.

Bear in mind bunker laden green complexes await the incoming approach shot . Not to mention the fast and undulating greens that characterize putts once you’ve reached the surface. There’s enough water to trouble you coming down the stretch on the closing holes. Mid South is a must play with a variety of tee box options as well!

Truly enjoyed the experience . Happy holidays

Set alongside the Pinehurst CC's 10 courses, as well as Mid Pines, Pine Needles, and Southern Pines, Mid Pines fits right in nicely. A pleasure to play, quite the challenge, but not too punitive. Arnie, obviously, wanted one to enjoy the day, enjoy the vivid landscape comprising the golf holes, and leave very satisfied.

The course was in great shape.club house staff made you feel right at home! Pace of play was good.over all a great time would definitely recommend!

Great golf course, I will definitely be back if I'm in the area again. Tee time cost about $200 on golf now, a little high, but really not that bad when you compare it to the obscene prices at some other courses these days.

Played with a very nice member, Jim, and his son, who are both very good players. He was helpful in knowing where to hit it and how certain holes would play. It made the round a lot more enjoyable on an already perfect weather day. Greens were quick and very true. If you hit it on line, it had a chance to go in.

If the other courses in the area are too rich for your taste or you can't get on them, give this one a shot. Outstanding track.

Played on a Tuesday afternoon so can’t even call it a weekend golfer problem—the pace was painfully slow. Took 45 minutes to play 2 holes on the back 9. At one point I saw 8 golfers on a green?! Didn’t see one person out monitoring pace. Real let down as we teed off at 2:30 and sun came down at 7 and we had to come off at hole 16. Not ideal when paying $350+ for 2 players.

Course condition was beautiful, it was in great shape.

The only complaint I have is the pace of play was terrible. The Marshall needs to do their job.

Overall a nice course. The greens are excellent and it’s a nice layout. It’s far too expensive but they’re getting it, so that’s up to you. The issue for me was pace of play, we were about :4:45 on a Sunday afternoon. The cause was (2) groups of (members I assume) slowing the whole course down, the place was too busy to allow this. Anyway, I won’t be back

I was able to get the first time of the day as a single. For all the reviews about pace, I never waited once, so, very fortunate in that regard. All the staff were super friendly, the starter was very informative, and the lady in the halfway house was a joy. The course was wet from recent weather but the greens were exceptional and the fairways were lush. I’d also add this is one of the VERY few tracks in southern pines that takes care of their back tees as well.

I’m used to playing off sandboxes half the time but this course was tip top in all aspects. Worthy of any special trip, my favorite in the area.

Mid South Club is a great course. Beautiful holes, greens are next to perfect, layout is incredible. The staff are cheerful and friendly. The management/ownership is the problem…. They allow large groups of drunk players on the course who litter beer cans everywhere, urinate all over the course and behave like idiots. This IS NOT A PRIVATE course (it is in a gated community). I have watched drunk men walking up to parents with young children on the range and berate them. I have watched drunk players yelling at other players to get off the course so that they can start their round. I have played rounds that took over four hours for nine holes because drunk players were allowed to hold up the entire course. What a waste of a beautiful golf course and what should be a great experience. This is a five star course which is run as a two star course. Shame on you

Easily one if the nicest and overall fun course i’ve played!
