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.

Enjoyable Course but Difficult

We played in 95 degree weather with almost no others playing the course. The rough is extremely difficult to find a ball so if you play make sure to only hit fairways and greens.

Staff was great and we really enjoyed playing here.

Decent layout, condition poor, reflected in green fee

Cannot argue with a $50 weekend greenfee but clearly the course condition is struggling . Not talking about greens that were recently aerated but so many bare areas around fairways and greens and bunkers were shocking .. we gave ourselves GUR. Interesting layout requiring shot shaping both ways making it fun. If you go expecting a causal round then enjoy, don’t expect prestine tees/fairways/greens

Recently aerated greens

Punched greens a few days previous Slow and bumpy. Bermuda rough needs to be cut down a little. Sometimes hard to find ball right off fairway. Al in all good test and layout.

Really enjoy the layout of this course

It is very fair with fairly wide fairways and greens were in great shape. Although they were a little slower than I prefer.

Golfing in the Pines

Pros…….Greens in good shape. Course layout is very good. Cons…….Sand bunkers and fairways need some attention. Cart path only not disclosed at time of booking. Overall I like this course and advise everyone to stay away from the pines.

Great layout needs maintenance.

I love this course, it’s challenging and frustrating on its own design and when properly maintained. The rough around some greens and other areas near play is well past due for a cut. Some areas were wet however most were not, especially near the green and looked about neglected for two weeks. Bunkers were washed and flooded which seems the norm here now, unfortunately there are a ton of them on this course. Not every bunker but most. Really disappointed in the scalped holes on the green. Either they mowed after they cut the hole or these were yesterday’s pins which I wouldn’t expect on a Saturday. The fairways were in very good shape as well as the tees and the greens were quick and pure rolling. This place is a real pleasure to play in the summer, this was my first time playing in the spring here and it is night and day for conditions. It certainly favors the hot and dry weather.

Everything about Anderson Creek golf club is great except the bunkers. Many of the bunkers I saw were wet and had pools of water in them..

Good time

This course is well maintained except for the sand traps. They need sand. For a beach bum like myself the traps need sand other than that great time.

Beautiful course.

My first time. Challenging enough for me. I love the forward tees. It makes my round so much more enjoyable. I am not a long hitter off the tee or on the fairway. Those bunkers are fun and interesting. Looking forward to my next round.
