Greens were a little rough

Putting greens on the front were a little rough. Plenty of rain in the area, so I don’t know why. A month ago they were in better condition. Course was basically empty at 1300 and I was able to play alone, never caught up with anyone or saw anyone behind me. I was 52 minutes ahead on the play clock.

Excellent layout for big hitters.

The course layout is very fun and wide open for a longer hitter, or someone looking to get work in with the driver. Beautiful conditions with the only downfall being the greens were very slow but receptive. I think the hot summer took its toll on them but overall it could have been worse. It was difficult to get a feel of how hard to truly putt the ball all day. Even downhill puts had to be hit way out of the comfort zone. If not for the greens this course is a possible eastern NC gem for the price. Would have played again if not for needing to get back home, would absolutely visit again.

Rough putting

The course was in good shape with the exception of the greens, which were recently aerated and sanded. It would have been nice to know this when scheduling our round.

Great course layout but very dry

This course could be an incredible golf experience with its very impressive layout and design but it’s very dry right now and the bunkers are in desperate need of attention. For the value, I highly recommend playing this fun course but hope it gets some water soon.

Has a number of water hazards

First time playing this course. Found it to be a little easier than the Taberna course I am use to playing.

Only played 9 holes this time, but I will be back for a full 18 soon!

Beautiful course, friendly staff

This was our first time playing Carolina Colours and we really look forward to going back! The course is challenging but not too tough for a beginner. There times when driving to the next hole you felt like you’re in a nature park. It’s really pretty and the greens are in great shape. Also, the bar/cafe is excellent. Our party of three all had different sandwiches and they were all delicious. The beer is cold and cheap! The staff were really friendly, too, which was nice. We will definitely play here again. Off all the course we’ve played in New Bern this was our favorite.

New Course for me

The course was easy to find, easy to pay, easy to start. The course was beautiful the players were cordial and everything went well. They could use a beverage cart, especially when the temps are in the 90's.

Nice course

The course was easy to find on the web and tee times were clear and easy to chose. The golf pass software was a challenge, but they were able to make it happen. All in all a really nice day of golf. The

Colours

Late spring now- course is growing in. Greens are good after having a few with trouble in winter. They are faster now also. Looks like some investment is being made with fans on some greens, TLC plantings, sod laying, bunker changes. Should be in real good conditions soon!
