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.

Used to enjoy this course

Our foursome took on a solo guy in front of us because the two groups of members in front of him were playing ridiculously slow. Then our group was blamed for holding up the pace of play for the members behind us. We were told we had to split up. I get the rules don't allow for more than four, but pace of play was faster with us as a group rather than separate. Nothing was ever said to the member groups that were actually holding us up. By their logic the pace should have sped up after we split up. We even had one of ours drop off after 9 holes due to an injury, and it still took almost 5 hours to play a course that normally takes 4. I don't expect to get the same treatment as members, but treating others as second class citizens is not right. I dont plan on going back here anytime soon.

Great value. Great layout

It is difficult to fully evaluate course conditions during winter play but the layout does hold your attention during the round. Tees are placed well for all levels of play. The community that surrounds the course adds ambiance.

What happened to this course

I’ve played this course several times before in the past. But yesterday was THE WORSE shape I’ve ever seen the course. Tee boxes were terrible. No grass in the fairways to hit off of. Sand traps need work. Greens were in good shape though. Other than the greens, this course is in horrible shape. I don’t know if they have changed management or out of money but OMG... I could not believe it.

Nice course... average conditions

To be fair, playing most public courses in the middle of the winter means less than great conditions. With that said: the layout was good with many hazards and layups that encouraged course management throughout the round. Member told us that they replaced the greens 3 years ago (bent grass) and they were in good shape and rolled well. However, more than half of the fairways were not in great shape and seemed to suffer from drainage issues (they were mucky and being in the fairway off the tee was not necessarily advantageous). The sand traps also seemed not to be maintained well and many had standing water or were unplayable. Overall, the day was beautiful, and we enjoyed our round for what it was and how much it cost. The staff was friendly and helpful and that was a plus.
