Gem of a Course

Kilmarlic is a nice course. On the shorter side. If you hit driver consistently over 270 it’s best to play the tips or one set of tees up. There are decent landing areas but when you start playing further up it gets much tighter. The fairways were a little burned out but I still really enjoyed my round. The greens weren’t the fastest but rolled really smooth and true. The biggest issue was pace of play. I started at 9:06 and didn’t finish till after 2:30. So close to 5 1/2 hours. The group infront of us was still on tee box every single one we pulled up to besides maybe 1 or 2 holes and we’re just leaving then. It could have just been group infront of us had greater expectations than they could play to but this led to the group behind us having to suffer the same fate as ours and have an audience on every hole. Other than that it was a great day and look forward to being able to come back and play this course again.

Great course

Loved the layout. Greens are perfect. Tees and fairways really good. Only minus is the collars around the greens. They need a little attention especially when compared to the shape of the rest of the course. Overall great experience.

Slooooowww

We played at 9am on a beautiful Sunday and it was still a 5+ hour round. We waited on every tee and usually every approach shot. It’s a nice, well kept course and a fun layout but 5+ hour rounds are never acceptable, especially when you are paying well over $100 for the round.

Good course

This is a well maintained course that is visually beautiful. The greens are fast and the course is tight. Overall a tough course. Staff was really friendly. We got behind three foursomes playing a tournament, so play was slow. Overall a good choice to play if you're visiting the Outer Banks.

Not worth the cost.

Don't get me wrong, this course was fun and challenging, but the cost was not worth it. The layout is solid and the green were well kept. On the other hand, the carts are very derelict and the amenities lack what you would expect for the price tag.

Recommend taking a drive above 30min north to Eagle Creek to play if you can.
