The Pines at Elizabeth City

Layed out well, Other than goose poop in a lot of places it was an enjoyable course.

The greens were in good shape, bunkers were horrible, so bad we didn't play out of them.

Overpriced for the course conditions

After a lot of improvements to the course earlier in the year it seems as if ownership just does not care about course conditions anymore. The grass in the fairways is like hitting balls out of your back yard if you didn’t cut it for 2 week, bunkers are full of mud, tee boxes severely out of level, and the greens have long grass and starting to disease. One could deal with all this if the price reflected the product but that’s just not the case. The only time this course is worth the money is if you catch it on a hot deal for $20. For the same money they want for a normal tee time I can go play The Pointe and Carolina Club for $5 more dollars and play Albemarle Plantion for $54. The course has a lot of potential but the owners have to invest in the place. They might need to bring back some inside help because I’m. It sure they know what they’re doing.

The course was a tight design fairways and greens were real close together. Had one shot land on our green while we were putting.

Pros: $20 to play 18 w/ cart is hard to beat, staff was friendly and helpful, course was fun and challenging, and club house had a gym and shower inside the locker room.

Cons: Greens were very slow and small, fairways were decent, sand traps were not kept up well.

I am staying in OBX and drove an hour to play here. Can’t really afford the $150 plus tee times at the near by courses so this was definitely worth the drive. If you are looking to get a round in without paying crazy summer prices, this is a good spot.

It has been a couple of months since I last played the course so I was kind of disappointed in conditions. The fairways were not mowed, bunkers were not raked and had grass growing in them and the greens showed signs of damage. They added markers and targets in the range but hitting area was not mowed so it felt like hitting from the rough. In its current condition it would be hard to recommended to friends.

Rate was very reasonable. Interesting course with challenging holes however badly in need of maintenance. Greens were okay but fairways loaded with weeds and not much turf. Ok for a quick round. You get what you pay for.

I started playing about a year ago, and this is my local course. It’s recently (within the last couple of years) under new ownership after sitting for an extended season. The current leadership is definitely putting money in, redoing the bunkers, adding new bunkers, clearing dead trees, and changing the layouts of some holes. I always have a good time playing The Pines, and I’m excited to see where this course is in a year or so!

Can’t get a better deal than this place! Worth the drive from OBX to avoid the ridiculous prices. Greens were in great shape and course was nice and green. Tee boxes need a little work, but not bad!

Very nice course. In very good condition and great value for the money. Nice restaurant / bar area to relax in after a round. Staff very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend the course.

Always enjoy playing this course. Also , My wife a I enjoy a nice cold beer after rounds but was told this special was discontinued. We usually order lunch with the beer but I guess will prob stop getting lunch after rounds. We always looking forward having a cold beer specially after a warm /hot round.

Generous fairways with good turf conditions. Premium on approach shots as many require crossing water hazards. Greens were well manicured. Definitely will plan a return trip

Reasonable price for a great course. Very forgiving fairways lol.

Course under new management has come along ways but still good ways to go. Hope they continue on the track they’re on. Constant improvements.

The course was not bad, although the conditions are summertime golf. Fairways hard and greens not very receptive. Gotta play Texas style golf and roll the ball up by hitting short and how that you don't roll off lol.
