Thanks for the 4 star rating and hope to see you out here again soon!
Thanks for the 5 star rating! We appreciate it and hope to see you back out again soon!
Great day of golf at Regatta Bay
Last minute decision to play golf and Regatta Bay had good availability. The staff was very friendly, especially the starter. Range balls included was nice, and the course was in fantastic condition, tee to green. Generous fairways on the front 9, and lots of water on the back 9 gave two different challenges, but not severe penalties for slightly errant tee shots. Great value!!
Great to hear you enjoyed the golf course and service! Come on back soon for another round! Thank you for taking the time to comment!
COURSE WAS GREAT
I HAD AN AWESOME TIME!!!!! COURSE WAS IN GREAT SHAPE AND THE STAFF WAS SO
NICE! IT MADE MY DAY...
I WILL BE BACK TO PLAY
We’re glad you had a great experience with us and thanks for commenting! Come on back soon for another round!
Thanks for the 5 star rating Erik, we really appreciate it and so glad you enjoyed the course! Come back again soon!
No more singles
New leadership, new ideas, no singles allowed in late afternoon. Good be Regatta.
Clearly a misunderstanding here. We haven't changed leadership in any way and we welcome single all the time, every day, all day long. I regret that you came away with these impressions and would be happy to discuss it further any time. Feel free to give me a call on 704 575 2060 whenever convenient for you. John Z - Guest Experience Manager, Regatta Bay.
Stop taking singles in afternoon
Used to be a pretty nice place to get 9 or 18 holes in later in the afternoon. They stopped that for some reason which is actually fine. I would suggest Kelly Plantation and Indian Bayou all better tracks and you can book easily as a single. Regatta is kinda a mess with yet another leadership change with this new hair brain idea.

Unbelievable course
I’ve played a lot of golf in my life- pinehurst multiple times, Tobacco Road, whistling straights etc….this course is remarkable. Unbelievable condition. Strongly recommend. Fun course.
Wow! High praise for sure, thanks so much for taking the time to comment. We have a great team working hard every day so your review is gratifying for all of us. Thank you and please come back to play again soon!
We really appreciate the 5 star rating and look forward to seeing back here again soon. Thank you!
Thanks for the 5 star review Nate! Hope to have you back again soon!
Great day
The only comment that I have is that 2 times during the round. Maintenance carts drive right through. Once when we were putting and once when we were on the tee box. They just kept driving the entire length of the hole while we waited. The really should be taught to stop and wait for the golfers.
Thanks for the feedback. You can be assured that we'll share your comments and experience with our team. We're committed to listening, learning and improving every day. Thanks again and hope to have you back again soon.
Thanks for the 5 star rating Donald, we appreciate it and hope to see you out here again soon for another round!
Perfect course for a vacation day
Can’t wait until I’m back down and play here again.
We're so glad you enjoyed the course and overall experience. We can't wait to have you back again too! Thank you!
Amazing Experience
Top notch course. Amazing staff, well stocked pro shop, and great bar. They have a great driving range, balls are included with the tee time price, as well as a putting and chipping green. Well maintained course with amazing greens. The course and the surrounding area is beautiful. Would recommend if you have the money, any hot deal times just make it an even better value.
Thanks for this amazing rating and review! We strive to deliver exceptional experiences every day so it's great to hear we got it right for you and hope to have you back again very soon! Thanks again!
Great value on a HOT deal
Threat of rain and we played in 3 hours. Evidently there's been a lot of rain here in the greens were very slow probably running around in 8, course very wet getting no roll. Virtually nobody else on the course
Thanks for the nice review. Come back soon when the weather is better and we're sure you'll enjoy it even more!
Fun course layout but not a great value
Course layout was fun. It was in pretty good shape except for the recently punched greens. Rental clubs were in fair shape but for the price of rental it would be nice to include a sleeve of balls and a towel. Course had been sprayed with a green dye that was difficult to clean off our hands.
Thanks for the great feedback, we're always listening and learning so your comments are helpful and appreciated. Hope to have you back again soon!
golf on a rainy day
Four straight days of rain. Course was a bit soggy. The greens had been punched 10-11 days before our round. We were made aware of that prior to making our tee time. The greens rolled good and fairways were very playable. The ruff was tough. We will play any time we get back to N W Florida
So glad to hear you enjoyed your round and we appreciate the rating ans great review. See you next time! Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a rating. Hope to have you back soon!
We’re grateful for the 5 star rating - thanks and come back soon!
Thanks so much for the 5 star rating! We appreciate your business and hope to see you back sometime soon!
