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 course

this course is without question one of my favorites in the area. Challenging, more than fairly priced, in excellent condition, and staff is very friendly and accommodating.

Great course just outside Charlotte

Challenging layout with all sorts of landscapes. Requires you to use all the clubs in your bag. Fairways roll well and greens are in great condition. The last 3 holes will test your ability to wrap up a good round. Was paired with a 3 person family and our round took just over 4 hours. Will definitely be coming back soon

A course to travel for

If you're wondering if the long trip to Red Bridge is worth your time, it most definitely is. The course is very well-cared-for, the greens are in great shape, the fairways are a pleasure to hit from. The tees are suffering a bit with the summer heat. Unless you are a real bomber, don't play from the back tees; the course is challenging enough from the white tees. Very friendly staff and a fair price to play.

Best Value in Charlotte Area

This is one of my favorite public courses in the Charlotte area. Great staff, course layout and course condition, but the best part is the price. No matter what time of day you go, the value for the quality of the course is exceptional. I am personally most fond of the Twilight rate during the summer because you can get a full 18 in for an even more discounted rate as it stays light out longer. Highly recommend!

Challenging layout

Fairways in good shape. Sand traps well maintained. Greens were medium speed. Always a challenge if you play from the appropriate tees.

Loooooong round

Course was in good shape. The layout was challenging but pace of play killed any rhythm I managed to build. Sitting for literally 15-20 minutes on a few tee boxes as I watched some extremely slow players. I won’t judge the greens on this trip as they have clearly been aerated recently. I felt like the course was nicer than the price. I will return but not on a weekend day!

Beautiful Course / Terrible pace

One of the nicest courses and fun layouts I've ever played. However, due to the difficulty of the course, the pace was horrible. If you want a challenging round that requires position play, this is the place for you.

Red Bridge

Fun round at Red Bridge. Course is in really good shape. There are a few tee boxes that are a little bare but otherwise course was in good shape. Fairways and greens are excellent. It was a bit crowded on a Friday afternoon. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Range was nice and range balls were good too. Overall a really nice day of golf at Red Bridge.

Excellent layout and in excellent shape.

You can't go wrong with this course. Beautiful layout and fairways looked like carpet. Greens were rolling good also. Had some challenging driving holes. A few tough par threes also. Highly recommended.

Fair Course

fair course with good and honest greens...

I really enjoyed 1-14 and then there was a huge bottleneck with 9+ groups facing the last 3 holes...it would have been nice if there was staff to help push some of the slow play along to free up the course. We played the first 15 holes in under 3 hours and it took over an hour to play the last three holes.
