Overall review

Well I was a bit disappointed that the carts had no computer screens for monitoring your distance and hole information. Course was just okay. Although the staff was very friendly.

Staff told me after I paid that single players aren’t allowed on Sunday

The course and its conditions are great!

The staff were extremely rude and pushy. I arrived 20+ minutes before my tee time and checked in. I was immediately told that I would be going out in 5 minutes with a group. As a single, I know that I can be paired with others but this was presented terribly to me. I even asked the pro shop if they knew what time it was currently, they told me yes and that I had time.

I hurriedly got my things on a cart, got over to the starter, who yelled at me for holding things up, told me that they don’t allow singles on Sunday, and that I needed to unpack my cart and hop into another person’s before my newly assigned tee time was past.

The golfers they were trying to pair me with were visibly upset over something that was obviously not any of our fault. I asked him to let them go and stated that I was upset, which he told me was my fault for booking a single tee time on a Sunday.

Thankfully, another group was going out 20 minutes later and asked me if I would like to play with them. The round was enjoyable but the staff interactions were awful. I now know that Carolina Lakes doesn’t welcome single players on Sunday and I will schedule accordingly in the future.

Nice Course - surprising surcharges

Very nice course- Strange no cart amenities rolling through on a Friday before a holiday weekend. Very Strange the additional rider fee ( young son came to watch me play) - Not prefaced on the website or Golf Now app.

Additional Cart fees apply when you check in $12.00) - so you're prepared.

Augusta Like

We felt like we playing Augusta. From the tees the fairways were undulating and lined with white candy bunkers. Green were perfect condition with different elevations. It's a gem.
