Westport Golf Course

Worst course an me staff in the greater Charlotte area. Save your time and money. There is a reason it’s cheap and the tee sheet is wide open.

I recently played on a Saturday mid-morning. There were a couple of things that really bothered me and will deter me from coming back:

1. $16 charge for my fiancé to ride in the cart with me. Being that I already paid for the cart with my greens fee, they charged me an additional $16 for her to sit in the cart and look at her phone. BS.

2. I played 18 holes and 12 of those holes weren’t even flat. Whoever cuts these holes did so on severe down-slopes and side-slopes making putting nearly impossible for the average golfer.

3. The starter has absolutely no idea how to operate a schedule, sending singles off in the middle of foursomes causing a nearly 6 hour round of golf.

4. For the $50 I paid for a Saturday round, the place looks like a goat track. I’m not asking for Augusta, but I am asking for grass.

This place stinks. Straight up.

Overall this is a fun pretty average course to play for a standard $40 round with cart. Greens are usually a little fast but weather can dictate that condition at any time. I’ve played here several times and usually greens I would give a 6/10. Fairways depending on season are usually average at 5/10. Fairways can be a little narrow for some. Good mix of holes with hills and some long and flat. Finally the tee boxes are probably the low point. Most tee boxes cease to have decent grass and are hard to spot 3/10. Course play can move slow at times depending on how busy and I’ve had to wait 5-10 minutes for carts before no huge dilemma though. Unfortunately there’s no range here to warm up before however they do have a pretty nice little chipping and putting green next to the clubhouse I would give 7/10. Overall if you’re looking for somewhere to keep it relatively cheap with a pretty average course and get some practice in this is a great place to look. At its worst maybe a 5/10 and best 7/10 with seasons/weather factored in.

Great course! Tough layout narrow fairways present a nice challenge. Staff was great. No food, or driving range. But other than that the course is great. And for the price it was well worth it.

Nice sunny day but the pace of play killed any chance of making this a perfect round. Challenging course added to the fun. There was no course management by a ranger which caused the pace of play to slow down so that four groups were on one hole at times.

Leaves everywhere, only nice thing about the course was the greens. Pace of play was awful so we left after 9.
