Consistently good course.

We drive from hamton roads several times a year to play the pines. Very well maintained course and a challenge for every level of player. Food/drink at the Bistro is ecellent. Staff is always helpful and friendly.

Staff arrogant

Person working desk as soon as I walked began complaining that GN is not listening to them and they have no Tee-Times available for the time I booked. Made me feel very bad about the entire process. I doubt I will be returning to this course again...

Maybe Next time.

I know I said "excellent to all the above" this course is very nice usually, and that is why I rated it this way.
Unfortunately it has rained almost every day here in Northeast North Carolina and the course retained water, so where it landed was as far as you got and it was Golf Cart on Path Only, and my shoes were soaked and of course I hit in swampy conditions alot.
Just wouldn't have been fair to say "Fair" it is a challenging course that I have yet to say I have conquered it, so "I'll Be Back".

Ok course - can't hit driver on range

I guess I t's worth the drive if you live within 45 mins but wouldn't recommend the course if you are driving further then that. Not super challenging but it's in pretty decent shape. A few of the holes were fun but not sure if I'd play there again. Can't hit driver on the driving range so don't expect to practice with it before your round.

This is a great course....enjoyed it very much.

This is a very good course. The staff is friendly and courteous. The owner has taken a very personal interest its development and operations. The pro Dave Masseti seems to be an excellent manager and welcomes each guest with genuine friendliness and professionalism. I enjoyed playing the Pines and look forward to my next visit.

Best ever

I have played this course before and this is the best shape I have ever seen it overall. Greens were about 10's and putting true. It was very windy so course played longer. Dave is an excellent pro and has done a great job with this course. 35 minutes from Tidewater area. Make the trip it is worth the drive. Can not wait to play again

Challenging course

Forecast called for rain and there weren't many groups out on the course and I was able to play 36 holes in 5 hours. Course has a few tough narrow fairways that could lead into a lot of trouble.

Great staff and course

We were greeted verbally and with a smile. The Pro talked briefly about the course. We got the yardage book and was glad we did. We will recommend this course.

Good track

Great Value at $30 for our round on Sunday. Not very busy and if you like to have some cushion under the ball this is the place for you.

excellent course

The Pines at Elizabeth city is an excellent golf course.. narrow fairways that are like carpet. The greens were in excellent shape. We played just a few days after they had the big storm go through and it was in great condition. The pro shop staff was very nice. We played from the back tees and it had some great par 4s that were 420+ yds.. if your looking for a country club atmosphere without the price this is a great course.

Awesome Putting Greens

Although I played in cold weather, the course was in very good shape and the greens well kept. The Pines have elevated greens, dog legs, long 3 and 4 pars so be prepared. Definitely, will stay on my travel course list!

Challenging placement of water hazards

The elevated greens make scoring harder than first glance. Some of the fairways run side by side so stay alert. Greens are well groomed and above average speed.

Poor instructions for bad weather.

The course was very nice. Played straight forward, what you see is what you get. Greens rolled slow, with not much break. Links style course. Sounded the horn but no lightning was near and delayed us for an hour with no rain. Some groups stayed out and played. They did a poor job of explaining their policy and once you came in you couldn't go back out, IT NEVER RAINED!!!!! Once we did get back out the group that was behind us before the horn was pulling up to 18. We only got thru 12 before a major storm came in. Had we known the horn wasn't for lightning we could have gotten all 18 in. : ( !
