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.

Best course in area
Have a great experience, very friendly staff, course was in great shape fast play. Best course by far in the area.
Nice course but too slow
I should have known when i was told the first available tee time was 2:20pm it was going to be a slow day.
A great course well laid out, tough flag positions, but greens receiving balls hit from the fairway,
However, not before long frustration set in as every shot was delayed by waiting for the groups in front to move on.
Front nine took 2 hours 50 minutes!!!
Fortunately the back nine took less time but still over 5 hours.
No marshalls to be found anywhere, which was disappointing, as this course needs players to be forced to keep up with pace of play. No round should take more than 4 hours when everyone has a buggy!!
Love this Davis Love III Course
A wonderful course if you're looking for a slight challenge. A hidden gem not far from the cradle of American Golf but MUCH more affordable.
We would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share with us your favorite part of your experience. Thanks for golfing at Anderson Creek Golf Club!
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Anderson Creek Golf Club!
Winter in the south
I really enjoyed this course for winter golf it was in very good condition. Greens rolled true and the fairways were where firm. The layout of the course is challenging enough but you don’t have to be a scratch player to enjoy a round.
Thank you for visiting us at Anderson Creek Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Overly Firm Greens
Pins were placed in ridiculous locations for a recreational round of golf. Also, could not keep ball near hole due to the overly firm greens.
Great Round
Best value around. Course was in great shape for a Dec round. First time playing this track, enjoyed the layout, staff was great, fully loaded carts with GPS and even Bluetooth for tunes. Great variation in the tee boxes to accommodate all levels.Only downside, there was a twosome in front of us playing a practice (multiple shots from each locaton) would have been nice for the ranger to keep them moving. Overall definitely recommended
Excellent golf course/facility!
Terrific golf course and facility. Very friendly staff , well-stocked pro shop and bar. Truly loved the overall experience over the holiday!
Carts have electronic scoring gadget w/gps. Makes life easier.
From the sub-tips , it plays in the range of 6600y. Favors good distances off the tee. Undulating fairways but very well kept and free of leaves. Excellent test of golf, will require hitting every club in the bag. This is a beautiful golf course!
Great course, better staff
Course is kept in great condition. The course is lucky to have this staff. The head pro Will is the absolute best. He went above and beyond for just a normal tee time. He has great knowledge of the course, even fitted me for a driver for free. If this course were in a vacation area it would a must play. Davis Love design. Greens are always top notch. Best bang for your buck in the area.
I will be back!
Exceptional layout, marvelously kept, felt like quite a little secret my father and I stumbled upon. We tipped it out, so far all the Love III courses Ive played have proven to be up to my desires as a lover of length. All the par 3’s played over 200, 3 of the 5’s were unreachable for myself (capable of a 265 carry from off the turf)
Dynamite green complexes, great sight lines, well architected courses really do set themselves apart when you get the chance to compare apples to apples.
We will certainly be back!
