Very average

A nice challenging layout with visually appealing holes. Fairways were very thin for this time of year. Collars around greens were almost dead. Greens discolored in patches withvwhat looked like dead bent grass. This could be a really nice course but superintendent needs to up his game and get grass to grow.

Do Not Play

DO NOT PLAY Here because:

The Whole course is poorly maintained. We were told that the water pump was broken for the last 3 week, well fix/repair/replace or do something about it..

1. Fairway: 30% bear land, 25% Weeds 45%Grass

2. Greens: 40% weeds 60% Grass

Good layout. Greens were still recovering from being punched. Fairways still thin. Course has lots of potential.

Friday Golf at Anderson Creek Golf Course

Excellent course. Played here again after having played here soon after it opened several years ago. Very well maintained course indeed.

Challenging and picturesque course well maintained. Very courteous staff indeed.!

We were told ahead of the round that the greens were aerated, however, this factor did not affect our play. We simply enjoyed the course as it was a great sunny day !

Would revisit this course again and highly recommend it

Great course but current conditions are

I love this course. The layout and the staff are great but today the conditions were a but iffy. Admittedly, it is still early April, but the tee boxes are bad and the fairways are "fair" at best. My guess is that it will be terrific again by the end of this month.

Great warmup for Pinehurst area courses

Designed by Davis Love III, Anderson Creek sits on a beautiful piece of property, meaning the course has a number of picturesque holes. It's also as difficult a course as you want to make it, depending on the tee selection. Besides the rolling topography, greens complexes are probably the most interesting part of the course with plenty of undulation and interesting pin placements.

Tight fairways, quick greens

Anderson Creek has a very tricky front 9, the greens are big. Although they were just treated the ball was rolling fairly decent. I really like the course when I can control my driver! I typically am a 3 or 4 handicap, but this course beat me down with the long par 3s and complex lay out

Meodicre Sandhills option

Course in shoddy shape, I give it a C-. Greens slow and poorly maintained. Tboxes were good, fairways ok but show years of neglect in many areas. Bunkers were fair they had been raked. The layout is great, in my mind their biggest asset. Staff was friendly and the service and food in the grill were good. I won't make the trip again until I hear conditions are improved, their are better options in the area with higher QPR.

Post Downpour Round

Played this course on a Friday after heavy morning rain, so instead of playing cart path only they let us walk. The ProShop guys are very accommodating and gave us a great rate considering the weather. Biggest downside was seeing how poorly the bunkers drain on this course. The layout is phenomenal and a true championship course with extremely challenging bent grass greens that undulate dramatically. It appears that after Davis Love III gave up management of the course the upkeep has struggled. You can see this course is in dire need of a cash infusion to renovate. I recommend getting out and playing it very soon before its no longer enjoyable. With good weather and in the summer it is a great course to play, especially if you want to test your skills as a low handicapper.
