Westport Golf Course

Never written a review before and after reading all the negative almost backed out of playing here glad we didn’t

Staff were super friendly and the starter was awesome!!!!!

Played from the blue tees with no issues, white tees were beat up but expected with volume

Greens were slower but extremely consistent and in great condition if you like slower greens

Front nine was super tough, with having to play smart golf and the back plays more traditional

Great price and challenging course for sure

Actually shot worst score in a long long time as I am more of a grip it and rip it and this is not the course for that which is a good thing

Worth the trip and will be back !!!!!

It was like someone sprinkled grass seed on a dirt road. Pretty bad

I've played every public course in in the Charlotte and surrounding area and I Westport to be lacking in many areas.

- The guy in the pro-shop did not say one word to us while checking-in (my Dad and I playing a Father's Day round).

- I know NC and especially Charlotte courses have a lot of hard red clay that is hard to deal with, but at Westport the hard red clay has taken over many fairways as well as the surrounding areas. I hit some drives right down the middle and couldn't find a place within 15 yards of my ball with a blade of grass. It was all hard dirt and rocks.

- The course design is interesting and challenging. Many of the holes you have to take (way) less than driver to account for the hazards and hard doglegs. The condition of the course ruined this would-be fun layout in my opinion. I hit a 5 iron off the first tee and it rolled into the hazard that the course guide says is 279 from the tee. The yardage was definitely off, but it also rolled 100 yards down the hard dirt fairways.

Tee boxes were nothing but sand. Greens aren’t even green half of them are just clay. Fairways weren’t cut in most places and cart paths are actually dangerous.

Course needs water or rain. Needs a lot of rain. Also neighborhood developments are now in play on the back 9. So hope you don't mind a audience when you tee off and putt on the green.

Not in great condition greens are not good tee boxes need some attention fairways are below average. But for the money not bad place to play. I will play again

The fairways were like hitting off of rock and had little to no grass in them at some points. The greens were not cut low so were very slow. If they maintained this course with sprinklers and lawnmowers it would be good.

I played on a Sunday morning and pace was great, didn't have to wait on anyone in front of us. The course was in OK condition, some bare spots but nothing egregious. Tee boxes were in pretty rough shape but that doesn't bother me too much. Course was a little narrow, lots of dog legs

I thought the greens were fun and fast. The fairways and tee boxes could use some work. The layout was really fun especially for us amateurs. There are some fun risk reward holes, especially the short par 5's. Overall it was a fun course, but a little love could make it a great place to play. I will play it again just for the greens and the par 5's.
