Red Bridge Golf and Country Club
About
Red Bridge Golf & Country Club in Locust is routed through stands of mature trees that give the course a peacefully secluded feel. The layout wanders across gently rolling hills, providing a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. There is a stream that runs throughout the golf course, coming into play on a few holes. The course is seemingly long at 7,100 yards from the back tees but it's more forgiving than it appears, which means players of all skill levels can enjoy the golf course. The design relied heavily on the natural features of the landscape, allowing the course to blend seamlessly into the natural surroundings while also shaping natural hazards. There are also strategically placed bunkers throughout Red Bridge that complement rather than overtake the natural challenges.

great cause to play with very fast green
Great management on greens. Fair conditions on fairway and very difficult green speed.
Absurd pin locations
I've played here quite a few times a few years ago and have never seen this in my life anywhere. 80% of the pins where either placed right in the middle of treacherous slopes or 3-4 paces off the front or back. Not an enjoyable round at all. Talked with one if the employees and he acknowledged this fact has been an ongoing issue with many complaints. I then spoke with the GM and he basically denied this fact and blew me off. Not happy after leaving.
My favorite course in this area.
Great course. The greens are in good shape. Great place to play golf.
Great Halloween Round
Even though my golf was terrible the course was great. it was a beautiful day, and the course was in exceptional condition. While my playing partner was on the practice green...he thought it was carpet because of how pristine and fast the greens rolled. he was shocked to see how nice the greens were conditioned. The course is beautiful. It was a haul for us, but it is a great course. if it was closer to my house i would be out there much more often.
No Tricks on This Halloween Round
The course was in great shape. Greens were fast and rolling true. We played in about four hours. Some tees were a little hard. But overall it was a great round of golf
Great course
Enjoyable day at a very nice course. Greens were fast and in pretty good shape for this time of year. Fairways tight enough to challenge but provided lots of roll.
Will be back.
Worth the drive-has promise!
New course that's about a 30 minute drive from Charlotte. Friendly staff. The course was moderately challenging from the gold tees. The rough was very tough and the greens were nice and fast. Fairways need some more growing time as all the lies were pretty tight. Very much worth our time and money.
First time visit
The course is in great shape. The topography is very pretty and keeps your interest. The green complex were in great shape. Shots held and every putt rolled smooth and true. The fairways were cut short and the ball rolled. Lies in the fairways were pretty good. Some thin spots. The rough was fair as were the traps and bunkers. Overall, this is an exciting and very pleasant course. Staff were very friendly and made sure I had every thing I needed. Well worth the long drive out. I will be back soon.
Hit the targets
Tee ball less important for the advanced player. Poor club selection and/or distance control is penalized, ESP on approach to greens. 3 par 5's and 3 par 3's on the front side make for an interesting change. Don't expect to score well if you haven't been putting/pitching with grace.
Hidden Gem!
This is a great course for the money! Greens are excellent, fairways are good, and pace of play is always outstanding. It's a tough course that can make for a long day if you're not getting off the tee well. Overall I love this course!
good conditions and a fun round awaits
No flash here. Trailer for a clubhouse until they build a real one (enjoy the low cost in the mean time). Challenging layout with interesting greens and some unusual holes. I hate 17 btw. good mix of open fairways with tempting "go for it shots". Lots of trouble off the fairway but sometimes you can find it and pull off an exciting recovery.
Hidden Gem - on "Target"
Target golf at its best!! Greens are deceptively fast and the grain can play tricks with your head. A good variety of long and short holes, the par threes are fair but challenging. Very scenic, pace of play is always great, a real bargain on GolfNow. You won’t be disappointed. 4 stars our of 5 meaning top notch almost private feel too it. Needs a clubhouse!!
Awesome Day On The Links
Beautiful day here at Red Bridge as it always seems to be when I go there to play. Greens and fairways in great shape and pace of play is what was expected on a Sunday morning.
Good Test
From a public course perspective, it doesn't get any better than Red Bridge. Excellent greens, good fairways, good tee boxes, staff is cordial. Pace of play was good.
Great course
This was my first time playing this course. The staff was very friendly and the course was in fantastic shape particularly the well maintained and very challenging greens. The only problem we experienced was that our cart (and that of our playing partners) started losing power (battery charge) toward the end of our round and we had to coax the carts up several inclines the last several holes.
Beautiful course
Red Bridge is a simply beautiful course, and worth every penny. I will be going back soon, and would recommend it to anyone.
Challenging course with a lot of hills
There were very few flat places on this course and the greens were on a slope 90% of the time which makes it very challenging.
Good golf course
Good golf course. Fairways and greens in very good conditions. I played during the week so there was no waiting. Great experience and great price for this golf course.
among the best in the Charlotte NC area
This course is as good or better than Olde Sycamore and Ballantine. Being built more recently it drains better than the others when abondant rain falls on the area. It is among nature, no noise, no house just deers, flowers and birds. It is hilly, long and rather difficult especially the first time you play. It is extremely well kept. It is outside the town of Charlotte BUT the road (24/27, Albermale) is never crowded so it does not take more than 1/2 hour to get there.
great course perfect conditioning
have played her many times it seems like the condition is better every time I play
