Does the quality of the course matter?

Yes. Yes it does. I can take a poorly laid out course. I can even understand not going beyond basic needs. However, for the price, I would expect a little more than a snack shop and a beach volleyball course. Hoping this is just an end of the summer situation.

Better than previous reviews

The course is in decent shape and getting better each time I play it. They could do a better job of pairing up solo and twosomes and not allowing groups of 5 or more to play.

Greens were rough

Course is not worth the money they are charging to play it. Greens were in really rough shape. Easy course.

No Water

On an extremely hot day, no coolers were filled on the entire 18 holes. When I brought it to their attention after we played the 18 holes, they blamed it on a skeleton crew and didn’t even say they would resolve that issue. It was acceptable to them. Also, their golf club paths are not paved throughout the entire course, so you have to drive in the grass a lot. For the price we paid, we had no relief of water, no paved paths, and poor customer service. I would not recommend them.

First Time

Staff was great, from the starters to the cart person making sure we were hydrated. The bad was we waited nearly an hour for a cart and that pushed our tee time back an hour. The course was dry and hard. You couldn’t differentiate between tee boxes and fairways. Maybe that’s how it is in NC.

Poor course

Not worth the 70$, maybe 30. boring layout, very poor condition of greens, fairways… we saw group of 8 and a group of 6 playing together, all bad players, so the speed of play was ridiculous. No tracker who drives around… it is only for very high handicappers who want to drink and hack around a bit

Perfect weather
Used cart

Oh So short

Arrived 20 minutes early to a complete logical mess. Wet weather early caused a total mismanagement of the pretty full schedule in the morning. People waiting well over an hour with no movement. No carts or staff to help the pro. By 11 perfect weather and still sending everyone off the back. I stood there for 90 minutes saw 4 people on 1. Also, allowed several groups of 6 plus to tee off together....

All that said, the course was in decent shape, greens were pretty true.

Pleasantly surprised

After reading previous reviews of this course I was hesitant to book it. I am happy that I did. The course is short and narrow but in good shape. I will play it again.
