Anderson Creek Club

First time playing at Anderson Creek in years. It was a hot autumn day, and the pace was awesome, less than 4 h It’s a nice layout with several elevation changes that are typical of the Sandhills. The Bermuda greens were in good shape with a moderate speed. They were dyed blue/green which made it impossible to read the grain for anything further than a few feet of the hole. The fairways and rough had some sparse areas that affected some of the lies. Unfortunately, the condition of the bunkers was really poor and disappointing. It looked like they were last groomed quite a while ago, and it encouraged people to stop raking them. Nonetheless, it was enjoyable to play an old favorite. Staff is friendly and efficient.

This course was perfect! Had some trouble with interfering with a tournament and the manager gifted us with a couple free rounds for inconvenience. Book tee time now!

The course isn’t in bad shape! The greens are a little slow but condition wise they are great! Super friendly staff, fun course, and very reasonably priced. Definitely give it a try if you’re in the spring lake area!

I love this course, we play it as much as we can. It's always in absolutely immaculate condition and the staff is always super friendly. The players/members out here are also very nice and have no issues with hopping ahead of you if you're waving them to let them play ahead of you and get out of their way.

I have played here before and enjoy the golf course. Not easy, but not overly challenging either. First the price. I snagged and $40 "Hot Deal" from Golf Now, so a $75 greens fee was almost half. Next, pace of play, we were able to get our ahead of our tee time and had nobody come up on us until late. One of the players in my group shot 126, so we were not particularly fast. (I might have picked an easier course had I known he was going to shoot this high, but oh well. Point is, this is not a course for beginners.)

I found the course conditions to be very good, with one exceptions. There are bunkers everywhere and the condition of the bunkers is not good. I'm not sure if it was just from recent rain, or if there is the need for more sand in the bunkers. I am thinking the latter, This is an issue, as the course is really a target course, meaning there are not many wide open holes that you can be short and run up onto the greens. Mostly need to carry to the green or lay up. I did the latter and managed to avoid the bunkers for the most part, but the ones I hit into were tough outs due both to high lips and thin sand.

Greens were pretty good. A little bumpy in spots, but likely from summer aeration. There is some undulation, so the putts have some challenge to them. The first round that I can remember with no three putts, so hard for me to complain about the greens. There is a wide area of fringe, so shots that just miss the greens are easily puttable.

Overall, a really fun day. I will definitely play here again. It is very common to see Hot Deals in late morning times, so snagging one of those would not disappoint.

First time playing at Anderson creek overall great experience the staff was nice and the course was phenomenal.

The course has a lot of potential. Greens are challenging and in good shape. The bunkers are just dirt holes without any care.

This course has a great layout and very challenging unrelated greens. However, the greens were in terrible shape and the course itself is pretty rough. Lots of bare spots plus looks like the grass hasn’t been cut in a while on the exterior of the fairways. Not somewhere I would play again.

Started a multi-day golf road trip from here so I couldn't avoid the rain. The course, if dry, would be very challenging from the 5800+ yd tees; but today it was almost impossible to get over the forced carries. I had all the wet gear on but still chose to play from the most forward tees just to get a handle of what DL-III setup for the members and public to save for my next round here.

This is a really fun course to play. Great Fairways and tee boxes. Well positioned bunkers and challenging greens. This was the 2nd time I've played here and everyone in my foursome commented on the quality of the course.

Only knock was on the wear on the greens, but attribute that to the rough weather we've had since I played 3 weeks earlier. Then the greens were great. This time they were heavy and had a bit of rough patches.

Let me say this first: I gladly drove the hour to Anderson Creek because it has always been one of my favorite places to play. And it will remain as such...just was bad timing for the Course and my Tee Time.

Periods of heavy rains just prior to the day I played, combined with a well-noted period of extreme drought conditions spanning weeks prior to the heavy rains, combined with what seemed to be a recent punching of the greens, brought about my "Average" Course Conditions rating. I know that the grounds crew can only do with what they are dealt weather wise.

Greens conditions definitely cost me a number of strokes, as many of the aerification holes were not (no longer) filled with sand, so they were very bumpy.

Fairways were in good shape considering the recent drought. Tees were more than fine. Bunkers were inconsistent, but again- the area had very hard rains just days before. Restrooms were open on the course and stocked. The beverage cart made numerous passes throughout the round.

Guy in the Pro Shop was overwhelmingly welcoming. The new carts are top notch. And the range was well appointed.

Our foursome played in under four hours...on a Sunday... I will take that every time!
