Well maintained course

Fairways and roughs in winter condition, dormant grass. Greens in excellent condition, rolled true, held the approach shot, were medium speed (which is slower than normal). Sand traps in excellent condition, best in the Charlotte area.

Requires accurate shots

Fairway and roughs in good condition, with roughs generally long and dense enough to inflect a penalty. Sand traps hard packed. Greens rolled true, were medium speed, did not hold the approach shot well (fairly hard).

Sand traps significantly improved

Fairways and roughs in good condition, although roughs in some areas are kept very long, slowing play while looking for balls. Sand traps in excellent condition with new sand and kept fluffy with deep raking. Greens putted true, were medium speed on most holes, held the approach shot. These improvements made for an enjoyable round. Thank you to the grounds crew.

Well maintained course

Fairways and roughs in good shape. Some roughs were thick and tall, making finding your ball difficult. Sand traps were not deep raked, providing a hard packed surface, even after the ground crew pulled a plate over the surface. Greens putted true, were medium speed, did not hold the approach shot well.

Interesting pin placements

Fairways and roughs in good condition, sand traps had plenty if loose sand and are the best in the Charlotte area. Greens held the approach shot, putted true, were medium fast.

Wide open course

Fairways and roughs in good condition. Sand traps hard packed and some with standing water. Greens held the approach shot. putted true, were somewhat slower than normal (possibly because they had not been cut).

Greens in excellent condition

Fairways and roughs in good condition, maybe due to the recent rains and the fertilization of the greens. Sand traps were hard packed. Greens rolled true, were medium speed, and held most approach shots. The course condition was the best it has been this season.

Nice short course

Fairways and roughs in good shape. Sand traps were hard packed. Greens held the approach shot, were on the slow side, putted true. The greens were watered for four minutes three times during the day. This probably lead to the slowness and to the incredible bite on approach shots.

Typical mountain course

Fairways and roughs were not well manicured. Sand traps were hard packed. Greens did not hold the approach shot, putted true, were medium speed. As a first time player, we would have benefitted by having a course layout. It was difficult at times to determine where to aim the shot.

Fairways and roughs in good condition. Sand traps were hard packed. Greens rolled smoothly, did not hold the approach shot, and each green rolled at a different speed. Construction work is almost complete.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for any disappointment with the sand traps and inconsistent green speeds. We're glad to hear that you found the fairways and roughs in good condition!

Somewhat disappointing

Fairway grasses were cut very low and the ground was very dry, as if they had not been watered in weeks. Roughs were short enough to hit acceptable shots. Sand traps were excellent, the best in the Charlotte area. Greens rolled true, did not hold the approach shot, and were moderate speed. Greens were hard enough that I could not find ball marks.
