The Challenge Golf Club

They were aerating today, so no practice green, no practice net. Pace was super slow on the first nine, but we breezed through the second nine. Always enjoy the course. Staff is pleasant.

My son and I have played here several times. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They have a great snack bar with good deals for a snack at the turn. The course is well kept. We always enjoy playing here. The staff is usually working on continuing to improve the course.

Wish you weren't nearly an hour away from me or I'd play here all the time. Very attractive layout without being too difficult. Greens rolled fast and true. Staff very friendly. I'll be back soon!

The course was in very good shape. The greens were awesome. Really enjoyed my round and would highly recommend this golf corse

I live in Raleigh and played with a buddy from Kernersville. It's a perfect 1/2 way spot for us. The course plays well and was in good shape. The greens were true for the most part, and in good shape. If you like placement golf, this is a good one. We played the whites, which we realized after we started that they were moved up quite a bit, so I recommend asking the actual yardages before you tee off, and the same time the attendant tells you the pin placement. Amenities were mostly closed, so no rating there. I would gladly come back.

Played here last weekend with my dad. The 2 of us were the 2nd group off the tee, so pace was great - we finished in 3hrs 15mins. The course was in excellent shape. The fairway grass was full and plush and the greens were soft and rolled great. It's a really fun layout, too - not your typical straightaway, wide-open course at all. I hadn't played this course since 2015 and it's miles better than it was then. I will definitely be playing here more often.

Grabbed a $39 hot deal. Very good value. Of course I had a career round so might be slightly jaded but the greens are basically perfect. Saw one small dead spot on par 3 by highway otherwise in excellent shape. Quick but not punishing. Tee boxes were good. Fairways above average. Bunkers were thin (except for 11 which I found out has 18” of sand on the high side of it). Played smoothly until caught a twosome behind a foursome on 13/14 but still played in 3:30 on a Sunday late morning so can’t complain about that.

Course had a ton of rain over the last five days and was carts on path. Hole number seven was closed due to flooding. Overall the course was in pretty good shape considering the rain. Greens were a bit slow but Were in good condition and fairways have come out. Still some bad bare spots in the rough areas but the course seems to be coming around. Back nine was extremely slow, and never really found out what the holdup was. Obviously carts being on the path had something to do with it, but on some holes there were two groups waiting. Ranger came out one time but all he did was wave as he went by.

I played this course a couple of years ago and was not impressed. What a difference this time around. Course was in great shape and played tough but fair.

Course was in very good shape and the greens rolled true. Staff was extremely pleasant! The only problem I had was, while there were green tees, I didn’t notice green tees on the scorecard. White tees for men played at 5755 and Blue tees played 6401. I generally play around 6000-6100 as a senior and I am thinking the green tees probably played somewhere around that distance. In fact some off the tee markers were green/white. Overall, great day of golf! I will definitely be back.

The course was in great condition, weather was perfect and pace of play was outstanding! I would recommend this course to anyone looking for a "Challenge" but without too much difficulty. This is a gem of a course!

The Challenge is a very nice course with enough woods to challenge even low handicappers. The greens are in terrific shape and roll nicely. I didn’t see a single bare patch. A big improvement from the last time I played here, a few years ago, when they were still recovering from a rough winter. Fairways are in good shape as well. The only physical drawback to this course is that some of the sand traps are full of mud, not sand, but there was a crew out working on fixing one bunker complex today. Pace of play was good considering how busy courses have been. Got in 18 in just under 4 hours. I will definitely play here again soon.

The Challenge has become one of my favorite public courses.

The layout, combined with great staff, scenery, and value, combines to make a memorable golf experience.

The staff has done an excellent job of keeping our safety and health concerns during the Covid-19 outbreak a top priority.

Also, I shot one of my best rounds, including a birdie on #15, a great par three!

Come play the Challenge. You will enjoy everything!
