When Anderson Creek Golf Club first opened in 2001 it was immediately recognized as the "Best New Golf Course in North Carolina." The course was designed by 1997 PGA Championship winner Davis Love III, it was his first signature design in North Carolina. It has a traditional layout that epitomizes golf in the Carolina Sandhills. The layout features rolling emerald fairways lined with towering pines and undulating greens bordered by large roll-off areas, a tribute to the classic Donald Ross designs that are prevalent in the Sandhills. The challenging golf course has tricky doglegs and there are a variety of elevation changes throughout. Water comes into play on a few holes at Anderson Creek Golf Club, most memorably though on the par-3 fourth, which demands a carry over a large lake. Strategically placed bunkers also lurk along the greensides.

Easily could be a high level course

Went out on a Saturday morning around 0830. Wasn’t caught behind or rushed once. The course layout is very challenging with some tough greens. If they could clean up around the greens a little better and prevent them from being hard like concrete this course would be 5 stars all around.

Great value. Nice course.

Incredible value on the Hot Deal for 18 holes and a cart. Course was pretty well maintained. Fairways and greens were fast and firm but consistent throughout. Changes in elevations throughout keep your attention with a few picturesque holes. Bunkers will punish you throughout but overall good course. Staff was friendly and courteous. Putting green and driving range simple and nice.

Great course with challenging layout

Loved the course. Would definitely play it again. It’s fairly tight and has lots of bunkers and water hazards. Overall, the fairways were in good condition, considering the summer Bermuda grass is just starting to thicken up. Greens were fast, true and in great condition. Staff was very friendly and welcoming.

Great golf

Great golf. Do not go on Mondays they have no food or drinks. Would have been nice to be able to get a drink at the turn. Apparently the restaurant is closed on Monday.

Always a good time!

This is a challenging layout on a good day, but in 15 mph winds, much more so. The greens hold and are super fast. Tee boxes aren't great and the fairways could use some more grass but it seems we are in between winter overseen grass and summer bermuda coming in.

Nice Track

First time playing this course. Challenging for someone of my skill level but not so much that it was not enjoyable. Fairways need some work in a few spots but greens where on point. I will be back.

Fairways need work

Love the layout. Greens were great. Fairways need improvement. Very very thin tons of bare spots no grass at all. Good value on teeoff.

Tough But Great Course

First time playing this course. I was paired up with two other randoms which was no big deal at all. We all took separate carts, which we thought was fine considering the starter said nothing about it and we didn’t know each other with Covid-19 and everything going around. Plus when you pay on Golf Now, you get your own cart. Had a solid front nine, greens had just been sanded, but rolled great and will be lightning in a few weeks. Had nobody in front of us the whole front nine. We got to the number 10 tee and suddenly had another group in front of us. The head pro pulled up behind us, and was just a peach. Complained immediately that we shouldn’t have our own carts, Pretty sure he let this group start on 10. He must’ve shot 101 for his morning round cause he was super friendly. Not a very good luck for improving business as dead as the course. Nonetheless, great, challenging, and long course.
