UNC Finley Golf Course

The change that was made seemed self serving and doesn’t reflect the previous standards the course layout had previously. I’m not a fan of the design. Over priced now and not worth the money.

Was visiting the area for the holidays and decided to take a spin on the Finley course. As a New Yorker, dormant grass is unfamiliar. However, the greens were phenomenal! I played as a single and was paired with 3 members who were very kind and helpful. I hope to return to the course in the summer!

The members won’t let you play through (southern hospitality is a myth). So if you book a tee time in the winter make sure it’s 5 hours before sunset.

It was a wet, gloomy day but course was still in good shape. Was my first time playing since the redesign. Not sure the redesign was really an improvement for anyone other than the college golfers or serious practice folks. The new "practice holes" looked nice but creating those meant "squeezing in 2 new holes on the other side which were not really great. But even having said that...I will go back and also would still recommend it to a friend.

I expected more from this course given the high green fees and recent updates. The golf course ranger was literally on the greens at one point on the back 9 watching my group hit from the steep bunker. I've never experienced this much micro management at a golf course. The pace was extremely slow due to overbooking most likely... It took over 5+ hours to finish.

Reduce your prices and get better scheduling and management.

I would not recommend, and that's coming from an alumna.

Cart path only again as the course does not drain well. I like this course except for #6 except that is growing on me. Next time its cart path I will walk. Played a midday deal tee time and they let me tee off early, the other two did not show up. I called when it backed up by ten and they said it was fine to repeat the front 9 instead, so completed 18 in well under 4 hours. #6 tee still needs steps and there is a cart GPS dead spot on #6.

Overall a great deal for a hot deal time.

The new version of Findley is a great course except the par 3 6th hole. It is really strange and shoehorned in, and does not feel like a natural part of the course. The new 2-4 are fine, in fact I really like #4.

The tee box on hole 6 needs steps near the white tees - due to the slippery conditions I had what could have been a really bad fall.

I only play this course when there is a cheap deal as it is now too costly. The practice tee system has stopped me using it even though it is very close - I go to Hillandale instead.

The cost to play has risen to the point I no longer play unless I get a deal. Discount for Rams club is insufficient. However even with cart path only it’s a great course, very fair.

Really need steps from 6th tee (white) as the grass was very bare and I took a bad Fallon the slick mud.

Course was in great condition. No wait play on this day - so pace was great. The layout is varied with some beautiful Carolina holes. Lots of teeing options-- played the blues and they were perfect for my 14 handicap. Practice areas - chipping, putting, range - were very good. Greens were perfect condition with great roll. Go play this course
