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.

Winter golf

Loved the course. Staff was great. Had a 2 hour frost delay and a shotgun start. The course was much dryer than other courses in the area have been this winter. Will definitely come back.

Better than I remembered

Little wet from all the rain. Very playable, greens we're really good, tough greens a lot of undulation. I drove from Pinehurst to play. I'll be back for sure. Only issue was the par 3 tee boxes need some help. Other than that I thought it was a good track.

Buyer Beware

ALERT!! Paid $35 green fee on Golf Now, but when arrived at the course found out the regular “winter rate” is only $30 (Jan-Mar)! The lady working the desk explained it after she overheard me talking about the “hot deal” I got from Golf Now. She said that they have contacted GN but, they have yet to change it. We both had a good laugh about it.

Good course

Despite four inches of rain recently course was in good shape. Pace of play could have been better. Ranger allowed a group of five to play on a Saturday morning with it cart part only. Nobody in club house wearing face mask during pandemic. No COVID protocols in place such as bunker rakes removed or noodles in cup to prevent touching of flag..

Great condition

I’m understanding that the greens are new this year. If they take care of them this winter this will be a near perfect condition course. Tee boxes was decent, the fair ways are firm because of weather but soft. And the greens are true to their lines.

2 in a Row

First time shame on you; second time shame on me. This was the second bad experience in a row at this course. First of all, they don’t collaborate with TeeOff so we showed up ready to play and was told they don’t accept TeeOff scheduling times. However, they did fit us in so no harm no foul. But the course was so wet it was almost unplayable. Plugged balls on every shot (to include the tee shot) makes it tough, long, and costly due to lost balls plugged in the mud in the middle of the fairway. This was the same issue we had last time; this course just cannot handle any water. There are too many courses nearby to settle for this one so choose wisely.

Wonderful Golf Course

Last played over 5 years ago. It was a great layout that had deteriorated a bit. This year new championship bermuda greens put in and the change has been great. Tee boxes were outstanding and irrigations issues remedied. Fairways almost all terrific. This can be a difficult and challenging course and I loved it. NO cookie cutter holes, each one in my estimation presents it's own challenges. The par 3's from the blue tee wow...bring your a game for these. The service from the starter to the pro shop to the other areas was outstanding. Nicest people you can deal with. They help to set the tone for a great day. I live in Raleigh (about an hours drive) but will be coming here a lot more. The folks in the pro shop so incredibly welcoming! Thanks to all who work there for a wonderful experience.
