Large deep bunkers

Greens had been punched a month ago but the growing conditions did not help them grow in. Tough putting as they were fast and undulating but did not roll true. Would be challenging when in good condition. Ladies in the group found the bunkers quite difficult . Quite a hilly course which was not enjoyed by all , I however loved the layout.

Great layout

This is a true golfer's course. Meaning, the layout is challenging and makes you think and make decisions. Lots of bunkered corners to tempt you to try and carry. Greens have plenty of undulations. Biggest disappointment was that we played it in the middle of March so all the bermuda was dormant and you were basically hitting off mud. Would have been much nicer if they had over seeded the fairways with rye. Also, the greens had been aerated and sanded. I would love to play this course in the prime season.

Great course

Even though there was a snow storm a week and a half ago and a day of heavy rain last week, this course was in very good shape...the greens were in awesome shape and you can tell that the staff takes great pride in giving you a good product...will definitely be playing again in the near future...

Great Course/Staff

Course layout is great--challenging but fair. Staff is outgoing, friendly, and helpful. Course was wet due to weather, but the greens were in great shape. Always a beautiful course to play!

kit em straight

Not a course for the 'duffer.'. Keep it in the fairways and you're OK, spray the ball and you'll pay the price. Lots of sand and a little water. Enjoy!

Quick greens

The course will challenge even the best of golfers! It certainly will challenge your ability to read greens. You have to play some holes by running the ball up onto the putting surface, but good luck at getting it to stop. One of my favorite courses.

Worth the effort to find: Anderson Creek Golf Club in Spring Lake, North Carolina

The temptation for golfers heading to Pinehurst is to race right from Raleigh-Durham International Airport to the Sandhills. I wisely veered a bit off course to play Anderson Creek Golf Club in Spring Lake.
Davis Love III's first design in North Carolina, which opened in 2001, didn't disappoint. Nestled inside a community of high-end homes roughly 40 miles east of Pinehurst, the 7,215-yard course wanders off on its own through the tall pines, rarely encroaching upon the real estate. It's challenging and fun from the 6,100 yard white tees and a real beast from the 6,700-yard blue tees. Changes in terrain create some cool vantage points for elevated tees and greens. Typical of the designs of that era, the greens are massive and tough to read with so many peaks and valleys.
My round was interrupted by the loud booms of nearby military operations at Fort Bragg, but they weren't too distracting. It's still a peaceful setting of forest and wetlands.
The Inn at Anderson Creek, just off the 18th fairway, offers furnished efficiency suites and an outdoor pool for stay and plays.

Very good course

Played as a single during the week. Not crowded at all. Course in good shape. Greens very true and in good shape. A good place to play if you like to play a fast round.

Top notch course at a great price

AC is a fantastic course. Tough from back two sets of tees (7200, 6700). Third tees also great (6200). Only problem is too many singles going out. Our group felt obligated to let 5 singles go through during our round. That's too many. Otherwise great track w great staff.

always in good condition. very challenging depending on tees

Always in good condition. One of two Davis Love courses in the area. (Preserve at Jordan Lake little more difficult but not as pristine.) Nice clubhouse, friendly staff, and above average range.

Fun to play, but the greens are tough.

This was my first time playing this course, so I didn`t know what to expect. What i found , was a very tough, but fun course to play. The course is in great shape, and the greens are fast and have a lot of slopes, so beware. I was a single, so it was nice to get paired up with a member, to get a little course knowledge. All in all, it was a very good experience. I will certainly come back again.

Nice layout, good conditions

Nice layout with interesting holes. Houses not too intrusive when playing. Course was in the best condition I've seen it in a few years. A little out of the way to get to, but worth it.

Fun Track.

The course will challenge you at all levels, and will have the opportunity to use all your clubs in your bag. Nice layout and well maintained course. Greens rolled really nice and hold true to the line but there are sloping greens with breaks. Enjoyed the course and will be back again.

Green had a few bare spots but did not interfere in putting. Fairways were in great shape. Tee were fine as well.

Course has every shot in the bag !!

Everything was nice except...They closed the range down for like 2 hours before my tee time at 12:10 for maintenance. They couldn't do that 2 hours prior to sundown the day prior !! I'm at that age where warming up prior to a round is important. The course was pretty busy and it just seems they could've done maintenance at a real low time. At least have alittle net perhaps somewhere to loosen the bones.....A real nice test of golf. The range closed was my only complaint. Go play Anderson Creek........
