Holly Ridge Golf Course

Staff was friendly and was able to fit me into a threesome.

Awesome day on the course.

It was definitely an experience. We are down on vacation and always go golfing and this year it landed on this good course.

Course was in good shape. Couple of sandy spots on greens. Would definitely play there again..

Pace was a touch slow. Minimal food amenities at or around the course. Greens had recently been plugged. Staff is super friendly and helpful.

Too much sand and weeds for the price charged. Easy and quick to play.

The tees and greens are fine, but the drought has the fairways brown and very thin. Flat course with quite a bit of water. Good short tees for women and long tees to challenge men.

I don't know if I've ever played a course with more holes playing under, around, across, or in the vicinity of high tension power lines. I'm guessing the property was inexpensive to purpose and honestly, it's a great use for land that might not otherwise be viable.

The first four holes aren't the greatest, routed thru tight wooded corridor, but after that it opens up. As many have mentioned, very small but consistent and tight greens.

I recently played an 18-hole round at Holly Ridge and overall had a pretty solid experience. This course is a great pick if you’re visiting the Outer Banks and want a relaxed game without paying big resort prices. It’s an 18-hole, par-71 layout with some water hazards and a few quirky shot opportunities that keep things interesting without being intimidating. The staff were friendly and the pace of play was easygoing — perfect for a vacation round or for beginners looking to work on their game. The driving range is a nice bonus (lighted in the evenings!), and there’s a practice putting/chipping area to warm up beforehand.

it’s definitely more of a casual, laid-back course rather than a championship track. If you’re a beginner or just looking for a fun, budget-friendly round near the OBX, this is a solid choice.

Holly Ridge Golf Course offers a fun, straightforward layout that’s enjoyable for golfers of all skill levels. The course is well maintained, with solid fairways, smooth greens, and consistent playing conditions throughout the round. The design is fair but still challenging enough to keep things interesting, especially when the wind picks up. Staff are friendly and the overall atmosphere is relaxed, making it a great spot for both locals and visitors looking for good value and an enjoyable round of golf.

Played Holly Ridge recently. The greens were some of the smallest I’ve ever seen and not in great shape — bumpy and inconsistent. The layout was tough to follow with little to no signage between holes, which made it confusing at times. Staff was friendly and a bit above average, but overall the course needs better maintenance and clearer direction.

Good value course. Plenty of trouble but also very open on some holes. Small greens creates some defense.
