Don't Book Online

Booked a tee time for 2 at 7:30 am through this site. Google said course opened at 7:30. No one who worked at the course showed up until just before 8am. They then acted annoyed at the 8 (others who also booked online) of us waiting on them and repeatedly stated they did not care what we read online. We were polite but we're met with indignation by the guy in the club house. He ultimately got it sorted out but he was not friendly about it.

Greens were really long and was like putting on carpet. Several greens has large dead spots on the back 9. Holes looked like they hadn't been moved in weeks. Driving range waa closed.

In short go somewhere else.

The staff and horrible greens is what makes this undesirable. If they were not part of First Tee I would recommend that the course be closed.

Excellent Track

The staff is amazingly friendly. Greens roll extra smooth and it's a challenging course. The practice area is top notch with 2 putting greens and a greenside bunker to practice out the sand. You will not find a better course in the area for this value.

Worst Course In NC

This course needs to be featured online as a great place to break your wrist on rocks and roots.

If you manage to get a decent shot on the green off of the concrete they call a fairway, that birdie look will be blocked by a crater on the green.

The “GM” of the clubhouse, or that’s what he called himself, was upset that we were early and when we asked to pay the extra cart fee as we had talked about in the phone call to book our time. We informed him that we had talked about it on the phone and then claimed he didn’t care because didn’t talk to him?

Ultimately this place stinks, don’t waste your money.

This place stinks

Staff is very unprofessional and quite rude. A buddy of mine and I tried it out as a last second option and I regret every cent I spent at this place. Upon entry, the GM tried to refuse my second cart I requested when booking the time and was told it wasn't an issue. Then the course is in absolute horrific condition with half the greens being unplayable. I will never be back here and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone

Public Course under repair

Used Hot Deal to play course. The course is hilly and challenging from that stand point BUT the fairways and greens were sub par. Lots of issues with greens under repair. If your just looking to hit the ball around then course I’d ok for the money.

Staff Didn’t Get to Pro Shop Until 8:30 on a Saturday

Had a 7:32 AM tee time and staff didn’t get there until 8:15 AM. Golfers were waiting at the doors telling me that it happens often. What a joke of a course.

Good but needs attention

Hilly type layout with blind greens. A few greens needed to be repaired but overall a nice experience. Staff was great, laid back but kept the pace moving without being pushy.
