Talamore and Mid South Golf Resort

This was one of our favorites of the courses we played while on a guys golf trip from Ontario Canada in the spring. Lots of elevation changes and a terrific layout! generally generous fairways and receptive greens. Terrific pace to greens. Course was lush and in great shape. Plenty of water that comes into play on various holes, especially 9 and 18. Terrific clubhouse and had a great view and lunch after our round as we watched other groups on various greens & fairways near the outdoor deck. Will definitely come back to play this in the future.

What a great course for the money. Course was in great condition with soft sand. The greens were especially challenging - fast and usually broke more than anticipated. Top it off with $3.50 Bloody Mary..

Again, a wonderful course. The Par 3's were long and tricky and sometimes humbling. Can't wait to play again. The layout of some of the holes were blind and you had to have your shot on target. I felt by then my game was getting better, even though my score may not have reflected that....again those tricky Par 3's. All in all, I had a wonderful time and would recommend Golf Advisor Getaways to everyone AND have. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Kyle Clark is an asset to your Golf Channel organization and made our experience all the better. What a great attitude he has.

This was a course that I was looking forward to, and I was not disappointed. Even though it was cart path only, it gave me a better view of the landscaping and the amount of talent it takes to design such a course. I did get to see the white Lama, as she was kind enough to be laying in front of the door. A wonderful experience all around.

The course was in fantastic condition and the playing conditions were really good. This was the last day of an outing with some friends for Myrtle Beach, and new friends that we made as well, who provided added enjoyment by their very presence.

Deb and I had a great time playing this course. The greens were slick and while we had to walk (cart path only because of the recent rain) we really enjoyed the experience.

Talamore is a fine course. With the exception of the premiere Pinehurst courses, (Pinehurst Resort, Mid Pines, etc), Talamore is better than most you will find in the area. However, the course is way overpriced for what it is. Green fees were $129 for an afternoon round in October. I’ve played many, many courses for far less that we’re much better courses. Their fees are what they are because it is in Pinehurst, and that’s really the only reason. But worse, even at a $129 rate, they had the audacity to charge for range balls. Not kidding. Overpriced fees aside, the course was in good shape. Conditions of the tees, fairways, and greens were far better than what you’ll find at places like Southern Pines, Whispering Pines, or Foxfire type courses. Even during drought conditions, fairways were lush. Greens were very good. It’s a nice course, but I would only play it in the off-season unless you don’t mind paying $130+ for a round of golf.

First time playing Mid-South and I was not disappointed. Beautiful weather made for a great day golfing. There are several lakes on the course- very picturesque. There were a few forced carries across water that made for fun & challenging holes. The layout has a more traditional look and this was the favorite course of some in our golf group. Eighteen is a great risk/reward finishing hole. Beautiful clubhouse and great staff. We stayed in the cottages at Mid-South and we would definitely stay there again.

Good experience! Second time playing the course and was drier weather this time so much more enjoyable. Lots of elevation changes and challenging greens. Par 3s were my favorite. A good tee shot/approach is a must -getting up and down for par is tough! The course was in good shape, tee to green. Very nice and helpful pro shop staff. Loved the llamas!

I absolutely loved this track. The layout was fantastic. Rolling hills throughout the fairways and greens. Very nice routing! The finishing holes on each side are very challenging and actually share a green! Would play this course every weekend if I could!

This was my first time playing golf in North Carolina. The rolling hills are definitely something to get used to. The greens were like grease lightening! Make sure you don’t leave yourself above the hole. In fact, do not short side yourself either because you have some time Bermuda to navigate which can be humbling for many... Really enjoyed this round, would certainly play here regularly if I lived nearby.

This was always one of my favorites, but not to pleased today. Thanks to GolfPass, I played for free today, the guy that was partnered with me paid $100 plus! I am not sure how they can get people to pay that much, it is a $60 course at the max, in my opinion. Still a great place, but they need to be real about the price.

Great conditions, greens perfect, a little pricey, 5 hour round, waited every shot.

Real estate golf, with best land reserved for homesites and golf relegated to steeper terrain that had to be massaged, shaped, and beaten into shape - usually with the effect that it looked like it gave up and use let the bulldozers run amuck on it. Way too much excess each mowing that creates absurd doglegs, weird bonding and artificially blinded shots.

Fantastic shape. Greens were perfect as were the fairways. Very friendly and helpful staff.

We had a wonderful time as member for the day. A great course and great facilities.

This is our second year playing Talamore. We had 8 guys last year and 12 guys this year. Lorraine from Talamore Golf and Travel has been wonderful. The Talamore course is beautiful and always in great shape. The only negative is the staff in the Talamore clubhouse. Both years we have been less than impressed with their customer service. They always seem rushed and “put out” by us being there. If you can look past this, it was overall a great experience at Talamore. Will definitely be back next year.
