Beautiful golf course in New Bern, NC

I been coming to Emerald Isle, NC for a number of years but I never went up to Carolina Colours. I made the hour drive for the first time a couple of weeks ago and I’m so glad I did.

This is a very scenic layout that is very playable for all handicap and skill levels. Whether you are single digit or new to the game you will have an enjoyable day on this course.

While traveling with my wife we discovered they hosted Spark Golf events at this club. We play twice a week in their social tournaments. The staff is friendly, there are course computers in their Yamaha carts and the course is in great shape.

You will have a wonderful time at this golf club!

Best course in the area

I absolutely love this course. The staff is always so nice and accommodating. The driving range is such a bargain, $7 unlimited balls on grass. Every hole has fun challenges. Only complaint is the fairway bunkers were in rough shape, but it is winter golf and I am sure they will be pure by spring.

Good Course for a Good Price

It’s a good course, in good condition, at a good price. What more can you ask for. Whenever I’m in the area I make sure I get in a round or two at Carolina Colours. I definitely recommend you play it.

Best Hot Deal with Golf Now

Only $19 with Golf Now Hot Deals. Very few golfers on the course, I started 30 minutes early, a single in front of me who was a fast golfer. Took my time, nobody behind me. Nice day, course had some hard dry spots and some long grass, which my ball found and slowed my pace.
