UNC Finley Golf Course
About
UNC Finley Golf Course is one of the top 20 collegiate courses in the country. The club offers a well conditioned comprehensive facility with a driving range, putting green, and chipping. Tom Fazio designed this challenging layout that is diverse enough to appeal to players of all skill levels. He included his trademark false fronts and greenside bunkers. To keep the golf course approachable, there are several different ways to play the bunkers and there are numerous risk-reward opportunities. Seven sets of tees ranging from about 5,000 to 7,300 yards make the course even more versatile. The 15th through the 17th are a beautiful stretch of holes that provide a formidable test as well. The excellent conditions are another feature of the UNC Finley golf course that has made it popular.

Golfer Reviews
Serene situation
Rainy Saturday but the staff was extremely polite and professional. The course was pretty open due to slight drizzle and I played as a single and didn't have to wait until 13. The course was in amazing shape considering the rain the morning and night before and the only negative is players didn't seem to repair ball marks but everything else was excellent and is a highly recommended option for an outing with family from outside of town with character and many natural scenes and wildlife.
Course was just starting to dry out after 10" snow melt. Cart Path Only makes the course play long and slower than normal but the course was in good shape considering the weather it encountered last week.
Nice track
First time paying unc finely .
You can see it’s a nice layout . It was a
Chilly day with some light wind . Sun was out but the course had taken on some snow the week prior and rain a couple of days ago , this cart path only .
We didn’t know that until we got there , no worries
this course ... you’d be better served walking .anyways . Front nine was nice from one up tees 6700 . Ahhh .. But then the back really tests you .
Gotta drive your ball well here .
Unfortunately, the greens were slow and bumpy like Velcro . I’m sure this is not the case most of the time and due to the previous weather. Will try it again when conditions are better
GREAt
For time of year- great! Due to weather cart path only which caused slower pace of play. Great course condition as usual
Very windy amd wet.
It was very windy - wind warning and gusts up to 40mph. Course was very wet from the snow and rain. Greens furry as they could not get to cut them.
This course does not drain so well especially in the winter.
Great rate and nice course.
Great Course & Wonderful Staff
Wonderful weather, amazing staff, and a great golf course made for the perfect day. Best course I have played on!
Fun round, even better price
Wanting to play a round before Christmas, I found a tee time at Finley that I couldn’t believe. Fourteen dollars for one of the best courses in the area. Course was in very good condition,considering the time of year. Greens in good shape, although a little slower than I would have liked. All in all, a good round, having played it in 3and half hours
I'll be back
For a cold day in December this was a good day. The course was in good shape, damp in some areas, but overall good shape. Greens role very true and are in good condition as well. Looking forward to playing here again especially in the spring & summer.
No suprises
Course in good shape for December. Very dry and the ball rolls out well. For the most part you get what you see, no hidden suprises.
This is a great course. The greens are in great shape.
First class
A tough but fair layout, if you play from the correct tees. If you’re not as good as you think you are then you will find trouble. Loved the facility and the staff. Have fun!
Top 3 Course in the Area
Awesome course but can be a little pricey. Can usually get decent deals. Paid $35 for most recent weekend round, which is rare in my experience, but I would do every day and twice on Sundays. Worth the $85 or whatever normal price is if you don't mind paying that much or don't play that much. I'm personally pretty happy when I pay less than $50-$60.
Pace of play can be terrible, but you can also unexpectedly find yourself on a day when very few groups are out there. Played on a beautiful Saturday during a UNC football game and finished in 4 hours but have also played 4:45 to 5 hour rounds, which can be miserable.
Overall, always one of the first places I look for a time on Golf Now.
Tough course but fun
Regular price a little high but a good buy if you can score a discount round.
Solid course on a college campus
Good layout , course condition very good especially for amount of traffic it sees .
Good value for money .
Great Course at a Great Rate
Finley is one of the better courses in the area, and the conditions were excellent on 10/30.
Tough but fair course. You can miss the fairways and still scramble a bit. Recommend trying to play with someone with local knowledge; luckily I did and probably saved a few strokes as a first-timer. Snack shop was out of sandwiches at the turn :(
Great Day
Finley was in great shape! Greens were fast and in good shape for having such heavy traffic. Fairways were neat and trimmed. Bermuda roughs are always tough. Pace of play was good with very little wait. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Weather was perfect.
