Holly Ridge Golf Course

This coarse was terrible for the 49 per person I paid. It had crabgrass fairways. greens were mixmatch grass 3/4% of greens were have crabgrass. Would never play their again.

Round cost 50 bucks. This course looks like it was put in someone's back yard. Power lines run right through the golf course and are definitely an obstacle. Would not recommend this golf course unless you have a lot of beers with you.

We chose to play this course instead of just hitting a bucket of range balls, since this was our first time out for the season. The course was very wet and car path only, but they did recieve 2.5 inches of rain overnight before we played. The greens were in good shape, but the course itself needs a lot of attention. for the price, this is a nice little course to practice on.

First time I felt staying home than playing golf!!

The greens were rough, the fairways lack grass, and tee boxes were a mess. Other than that course is great.

The staff is very nice, but they have let this course go. We only paid $15/ golfer for 18 holes with a cart based on pre-paid, but even at that it wasn't enough like golf to be worth the time.

This is your typical "backyard" golf course. Tee boxes are just as rough as the fariways. Greens were decent and about the only good thing about the course. We booked for $29.00 and not worth even that.

The greens are in very good shape and the course is a good place to sharpen up on your game if you had not played in a while.

Greens were sanded but not swept. The sand used had many rocks and other pieces of debris. Fairways were not plush and had numerous areas where there was not any grass at all. I consider this course not a good value for $39.00.

We want our money back! You could not tell where the fairway ended or started. Course is in terrible shape! I would not recommend this course! My family is still mad at me for scheduling and playing such a poor golf course on our family vacation!

The fairway is average and the greens are good. For a first timer you'll lose your way temporary. The cart path is partially missing and some of the sign are not either there or clearly mark to direct you to the next tee.

All I can say about this course, is DO NOT GO!!!!!! Not worth time or money.. There is more grass on the beach then on their fairways. Rude staff. Greens are.. HORRIBLE

DON'T GO!!

I enjoyed playing . The layout was good . A quick 18 holes.

This was a case of reviews that must be planned by the course. Based on the rating (3 star) and the glowing reviews we parted with $240 for a track that wasn't worth $20/player.

I am a beginner golfer with only a year or two of experience and therefore I do not expect a course that is significantly outstanding in quality. Although for a vacation golf course I was expecting A LOT more from Holly Ridge. Power lines everywhere, Sand piles and weeds in tee boxes and greens. There is a pig course back by my home that is only $10 to golf 9 holes with a cart and it greatly exceeds the quality of this course. Do not waste your money or time golfing here whether you are a pro or just an okay golfer, it's not Worth it.

Picked up a Hot Deal Tee Time on Golf Now for cheap so we decided to use this course for a warmup as we would be playing the nicer courses later in the week. We got stuck behind slower players from the beginning (3:30PM) and we ended up getting kicked off the course while standing on the tee-box of the 18th hole at 8:05PM with plenty of daylight left to finish our round. While this course may have looked like a great deal online, it proved to be more frustrating than anything. The greens were inconsistent, the tee boxes were in rough shape, and course amenities were few and far between. The nicest part was the electric carts. I can honestly say that I will not recommend this course to any friends in the future.

I have been playing golf for 55 years. I play once or twice a week throughout Western PA and Ohio. I have played in Hilton Head, Ocean City, and Myrtle Beach.
This was truly one of the worst that I can remember in my career. It was dirt cheap/and that's what we got-plus weeds everywhere including the greens and anthills everywhere! Among all this awfulness were-very nice electric carts! Imagine that. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone including a beginner or a kid.

I've only been playing for a few years, so this was a good course for me. It's short, there are relatively few bunkers, some fun par-3s and short par-5s. However, the grounds are awful (sand) and it's a rare site to find grass on the fairways.

Second hole has the worst-kept tee box I've ever seen.

Still, I enjoyed myself and shot an 85, which is excellent for me.

If you're a beginner on a tight budget in OBX, this is pretty much your only choice.

White tees were beat up and uneven. Blue tees ok . Fairways unkept. Greens not in good shape

If you are in the Outer Banks, Holly Ridge is the only "value" course around. Let me tell you - it isn't worth it!

Our round started out with an awkward experience at the club house. We were teeing off at 4:20 and the owner/manager told us we had to be back at the clubhouse by 8. I've never been told a golf course closes at anything other than dark before. Since the place was relatively empty, you would think she would have welcomed our business. When we tried to pay for our round she told us the rate and we were buying drinks. To make sure we paid for them, we said "oh you forgot to include our drinks." She replied "I have to ring them on a different register!" Okay, we didn't know. Not exactly stellar service. The sign on the entrance "Anyone playing with range balls will be asked to leave the course" should have been a warning. Who plays with range balls?

If only we would have known the course would actually be worse. On the second hole, I hit a great 8-iron, only to have a power line knock it down and hit it in the water. Power lines stretch across 5-6 holes on this course. And I don't mean if you hit an errant shot you may hit one. You frequently have to hit your balls through HUGE power lines and hope it makes it through the gaps. Fairways are not maintained well - sand in them, scrub grass, and uneven maintenance. The distances are awkward (a 420-yd par 5 from the tips?) and holes go from narrow and tight to completely wide open. No cohesion to the layout. It's hard to tell on many of the tees where the fairway ends and the rough begins or where to aim.

I've played 50+ courses over the years - this is BY FAR the worst. Unwelcoming service, bad layout, poor maintenance, and power lines. We had a good time b/c I was with fun people and we spent our time laughing at how weird this course was.

Drop the coin and go to one of the nicer courses. This place is only for duffers and those just trying to practice.

Not worth even $15 to play. This place was a farm that someone decided to drop some holes in the ground and call it a golf course. Never will be back to this one and would honestly be glad to see it go out of business... This place is a disservice to the sport it's so bad.
