Anderson Creek Golf Club
About
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.

The par-3 fourth hole plays over water. Photo submitted by JasonDeeganGA on 12/20/2013
Great course!!!
Quick check-in, 3:30 hours for 18, excellent course conditions, interesting layout, good value.
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.
Amazing Greens
Nice variety of holes and the conditions were great. Greens were perfect and rolled very true. Greens were amazing, did I mention that!!
Little of a far drive from Raleigh but that’s not the courses fault. I’ll be back
Anderson Creek
Course was in good condition. Pace of play was very slow with no rangers anywhere to speed up play. Took 10 to 15 minutes on every shot and minimum of three groups waiting on every hole
Nice surprise
Really enjoyed the course... tougher than expected ..except for the fact that some of the sand traps were a little hard packed... We had a great time. Also liked the need to use a variety of clubs.
ACC has done a 180
This place has always had a great layout. Finally now the course is back to being in great shape. It was wet from the rain all weekend but it still played fast - 3:55 4-some. The greens are perfect - very true and immaculate shape. ACC is a place again where you’ve got to visit. It is my understanding that the clubhouse is being renovated for a new company to takeover.
We were looking forward to a great experience after driving a hour and half... upon arriving there was a lack of staff and not that friendly or informative...went to grab some food and drinks for the round only to find the snack shop and restaurant closed... cart path only, no beverages available and 80 degrees out not cool..good news course conditions excellent and course layout challenging...
I want to come back
Course played a little slow because it was cart paths only. That is because the fairways were very wet. I don't think I had more than a total of 10 yards of roll out on drives. But The greens were good and the layout of the course was very interesting. I want to come back when it is dryer.
Nicest practice green I've ever seen
Greens are in great shape right now and roll just a touch slower than the practice green.
