Westport Golf Course

I played this course for the first time with my son. The layout was scenic and unique with many doglegs and downhill fairway shots. Course was enjoyable. The leaves, however, were too abundant in the rough and in the woods making a stray ball impossible to find. Westport course maintenance should consult with Glen Oaks Golf in Maiden, NC which seasonally grinds and vacuums all leaves well.

For first-timers, this golf course is a big question mark. There are many tee shots and approach shots where you have no idea where to hit or how much club to hit. The course was rough around the edges, with the greens being in decent shape.

Greens were in good shape and really quick. Fairways were okay but had some ground under repair issues. But all the courses in this area have had little to no rain in the past few months! So not all of the bad is solely on the course .

I booked a 2 PM tee time at 1 PM the same day. Arrived at the course a little before my tee time, and since the course was not that busy, I was allowed to start early. Staff in the pro shop was very nice and professional.

Tee to green, the course is in decent shape. Tee boxes and fairways are nice, but definitely keep it in the short grass. If you are spraying the ball off the tee, expect to struggle as most holes are doglegs that are lined with trees. The greens were in nice condition. The greens almost felt like short artificial grass with how thick the grass was (not sure if they have been aerated or not), so the greens were a bit slower.

Overall, you cant beat the price for this course. The course offers a good challenge and you really get to hit all clubs in your bag.

Very pleased with the condition of this course compared to what it was a few years back. Nice job, management!

This course is very challenging but fair, requiring different shot shapes and club selections off the tee box. Except for the par 3's, most holes are doglegs. Most approach shots are uphill and some are blind. Staying in the fairway and on the correct side is a must. I thoroughly enjoyed my round and will play this course again.

Very nice course for this part of the Charlotte area.

i could not have been more pleased with the conditions and layout of the course. Super friendly staff. I am not saying this as a negative, there is no outside help, however you can drive your cart right to your car to load it up. Im finding this to be the norm for the area though, so please do not let it reflect poorly on this course. The other thing I will mention is the only food (that i saw) were hot dogs and snacks available in the pro shop. I think this course should consider adding a grill. It would be a great addition to a fantastic course in a beautiful setting. It would have been nice to have lunch there before the ride home. This course is worth the drive. Check it out.

Great value, great shape. Much better shape than other courses that cost a lot more.

Prepare for plenty of "ups and downs" at Westport. The course is on very rolling land, and there are few holes that are relatively flat. That made for a lot of uphill approach shots into greens, which made pulling the right club a real challenge. Considering that it had rained heavily for the four straight days prior to my round, the course had drained very well and was surprisingly dry. The fairways have just started to come in, and with a few weeks of hot weather they will be great. Greens would hold a well-struck shot and were very, very smooth. Great value for the money.

Best greens in North Carolina...

I have played Westport a few times and this recent stretch have rain has greatly improved it. Fairways are green and full again, greens are near mint condition after the aeration a couple of weeks ago. The only green in fairly rough shape still is the 18th but I could see it is being worked on. Still love the challenging layout of this course.

This is the second time I have played Westport and I am a new golfer. The grass is very dried and parched. This led to a lot of roll on the ball when it hit the ground. The greens are in better shape than the last time and still need a bit of love and care.

The greens were not in good shape. There was hard dirt in the fairways.

Tee boxes were uneven and in bad bad shape

Pace of play was extremely slow. Had to quit after 12 holes. Greens are some of the best of seen in the area. Staff was great.

Played for $38 which for the time of year and course conditions was probably $8 to $10 too high. Fairways were yellow and the greens were rock hard.

Other than that, I will definitely be back to play again.

Decent course!

First off the staff was the nicest I have ever seen. It was on good Friday so they had a lot more traffic than normal. And they handled it wonderfully. The greens were very nice and the course once the weather warms up should match. Great value. Would definitely play again

This was my first time there. Tough layout when you don't know your away around. Suggest not playing from blues unless you hit your driver a long way!! Course in great shape for this time of year. Staff very accomidating. Overall great experience.

you have to be able to hit different shots to have good scores. you have to be able to fade the ball and draw the ball. if you hit the ball far be careful off the tee and club down 1 or 2 clubs. most holes have the hazard yardage so you know the distance you have to lay up too.

Narrow and competitive. If you hit left or right your ball is gone. Lots of dog legs so your driver will be taking some rest. Good luck paring this course!! Can't wait to go back.

The course is in very good shape and the greens are nice and rolling nicely.
