Horrible Shape / Unfriendly Staff

I've played every public course in in the Charlotte and surrounding area and I Westport to be lacking in many areas.

- The guy in the pro-shop did not say one word to us while checking-in (my Dad and I playing a Father's Day round).

- I know NC and especially Charlotte courses have a lot of hard red clay that is hard to deal with, but at Westport the hard red clay has taken over many fairways as well as the surrounding areas. I hit some drives right down the middle and couldn't find a place within 15 yards of my ball with a blade of grass. It was all hard dirt and rocks.

- The course design is interesting and challenging. Many of the holes you have to take (way) less than driver to account for the hazards and hard doglegs. The condition of the course ruined this would-be fun layout in my opinion. I hit a 5 iron off the first tee and it rolled into the hazard that the course guide says is 279 from the tee. The yardage was definitely off, but it also rolled 100 yards down the hard dirt fairways.

Seems like there is no greens keepers

Tee boxes were nothing but sand. Greens aren’t even green half of them are just clay. Fairways weren’t cut in most places and cart paths are actually dangerous.

West Port

Course needs water or rain. Needs a lot of rain. Also neighborhood developments are now in play on the back 9. So hope you don't mind a audience when you tee off and putt on the green.

Fun course with terrible conditions

The fairways were like hitting off of rock and had little to no grass in them at some points. The greens were not cut low so were very slow. If they maintained this course with sprinklers and lawnmowers it would be good.

Decent course for the price

I played on a Sunday morning and pace was great, didn't have to wait on anyone in front of us. The course was in OK condition, some bare spots but nothing egregious. Tee boxes were in pretty rough shape but that doesn't bother me too much. Course was a little narrow, lots of dog legs

Westport Still a Challenge!

It is a country golf course on condition but the greens are worth the trip to play Westport!
You will get on in regulation and three putt the round away!! Slope and grain are critical to read. Fun track!!

The cart paths need a lot of work, the tee boxes are hard as well as the fairways. Pace of play was very slow on the first nine, I think some people left after playing the first nine holes. There is only chips and candy for snacks. Not a bad course to just hit some balls. The Golf Now price is the only way to go with this course.
