Edgewater Golf Club

I understand this golf course is undergoing some major additions and rebuild but to not have the driving range open is unacceptable. It’s a weekend and no workers were out there working on the range. You could have had a portion of the range opened. My next complaint is to train your rangers. The ranger we had today not only didn’t enforce the pace of play but also doesn’t know golf etiquette. Having this guy driving his cart towards the tee boxes while we are trying to hit our tee shots is unacceptable. Keep the groups moving along or force them to let the groups having to wait play through. If you don’t want to do your job then don’t drive around out there. You obviously have no clue what you are doing. Course conditions were ok. Bunkers have too much sand in them and golfers don’t rake the traps when they are done hitting out of them. The greens have too many ball marks not fixed which is the fastest way to ruin your greens. They are currently redoing their driving range as well as building a new club house which is scheduled to open in late 2025. This course is on the high end of price for golf now and I expected more for my money.

I shouldnt leave this review because I dont want people swarming to the course. i love how peaceful and quiet the course is and the layout is wonderful. They are building a new clubhouse so the driving range was out of action but it is going to be worth it in the end. My only complain would be the greens had a ton of ball marks that effected the roll.

Edgewater GC is in the midst of a transformation from a very good out in the sticks golf course to a great out in the sticks golf course. They are adding a brand new Pro Shop and Club House as well as a new practice facility including a complete redesign of their driving range.

They are also improving their already challenging course with improved tee boxes and fairways. Their greens are some of the most challenging greens in the greater Charlotte area.

All of this with the best pricing for recreational golf enthusiasts. The staff is top notch as are all the Edgewater GC personnel.

Edgewater is a beautiful course. Absolutely LOVE the elevations built into the design.

First time playing here this year. WOW, have they upgrade all over the course. With added homes, several holes have a different view to them. Greens and fairways were in great shape. Got to be the 1st out and my twosome finished in 3 hours. Throroughly enjoyed the round. And played my best in 2 yrs.

Brought a guest from Fla who belongs to an exclusive private course. He really enjoyed the experience. Tks ⛳️

Overall:

Typically play here several times a year. Course can challenging and requires shot placing off multiple tees, which makes for a fun round. However, it can slow things down if you have a bunch of people who are unfamiliar with the course. Still a good course I’d highly recommend playing if you have a chance.

Pace:

Slow (4hr 52 min) with things backed up at the start and teeing off 5 min or so late, but kudos to the ranger who was going around and keeping things moving as best as he could. (It’s also a weekend round, so unfortunately this is typical at most public/semi-private courses around Charlotte.)

Staff:

Always friendly and great.

Facilities/Amenities:

New clubhouse and updated range under construction so current range is a small makeshift option, but it’s still open. A little overused/hitting off sand and a little grass, but the new one when open will be fantastic. (Only recommendation would be for them to get rid of the table of product in the current clubhouse. It’s difficult to move around when multiple groups are trying to get checked in, but I’m sure this will be fixed when they open the new clubhouse and some of it is stocking extra inventory until then.)

Course:

In good shape heading into peak season. Greens were a little long with all the rain, but they’re still a little quick and rolling well. (The length is probably needed to help get through the season with how popular the course has become over the years.) Only thing our group had a complaint about were some of the bunkers being overfilled in certain areas to the point of causing a lost ball in our group on a par 3 and not even able to get footing to rake. (Multiple bunkers were left unraked by other groups likely due to issues with even getting footing in some of them.) Easier said than done, but be sure to avoid the bunkers.

They have let it go / sad because I like the course greens not great t box nest up hard as a rock

Will not go back for awhile

After playing several public golf courses within 30 miles of Charlotte recently, I developed a certain set of expectations for subpar course conditions. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the very good course conditions including fairways and greens. Edgewater is in much better shape that its competitors. This is my second time playing the course and the layout is very good for golfers of differing abilities. I couldn't give it 5 stars overall due to the current construction and poor driving range conditions. I suspect these will improve once construction is complete. I will definitely return.

Welcome to Edge Water! This course offers a lot. I can always count on a top notch round. Thanks to the ground crew. There has been so much rain. I can always count on consistent greens and friendly staff. I’m always pleased and my First choice to play Golf. I was paired up this time. I’m grateful to the staff for a great match up. Thanks, I highly recommend this course. Challenging and the pace of play is excellent . Totally a professional organization. 👍💪
