Great condition

Course is in great shape in September. Five hour round on a Friday is not the best. Rangers should enforce pace of play. Free water bottles on the course is appreciated.

Great Course

In an area with so many overpriced “resort courses”, Quail Ridge stands out. The course is i. great shape. Greens are smooth and fast. Fairways and bunkers are well maintained. Great value playing here.

Great Golf - Great Time

My brother and I really enjoyed this Quail Ridge. Driven by it several times going to other courses in Southerpines/Pinehurst area. Should have booked it sooner! We all have our options about golf course, for us as intermediate amateurs it was all great for us. Had as much fun and challenge as any of the courses we have played in the area……..well maybe except for Tobacco Road. Could learn a entire new level of patience there.

For anyone looking for perfection, stop looking, it does not exist.

Good Value

It was hot as Hades on 7/25/2023. Played from the geezer tees. Greens were challenging, especially #2. They hadn't cleared the mower cuttings as of mid-day but that's not a biggie. The fairways are in much better shape than Longleaf which is my normal course. All-in-all it's a good course, a bit of a trek 15 minutes of so from Pinehurst but would play again for the price and if the weather was a little cooler.

Great course - some of the staff not so much

I am a member at QR and love the course. It's in great shape (although recently punched) and well maintained in my experience.

My one complaint is certain members of the staff act as though they are doing you a favor by allowing you to play the course.

Greens are in fantastic shape

Course was a little damp due to 2 days or rain and some morning rain. But, the course was in great shape considering all of the rain. Cart path only on a few holes due to the rain, but the course dried out really nicely. Greens were in fastastic shape and very fast.
