Drove from Winston Salem to give this gem a try. Read all the reviews and honestly was excited/ scared to see what we would get. To address some of the previous reviews/ issues. We had a golf now tee time and were treated like royalty. As far as pace of play I honestly think the drive between holes has a lot to do with long rounds as well as the VERY deep rough. Solution? Don't be on a hurry to play this place and take a moment look around. It's an absolutely a beautiful tract with nature galore and no houses! (A rarity these days). The guy in the clubhouse was extremely friendly and very helpful with tips for virgins like us. When we played greens were not too fast and fair. Conditions were the best I've seen yet this year ANYWHERE and I play lots of different courses. I wish it was closer to me but that's the breaks. Given the choice to drive down to Pinehurst for a day or this place.. I'm road tripping to Locust ! From a decent golfer who relishes in variety to all fellow golfers out there... Play this place at least once. You will not regret it whether you get a "deal" or pay full price.

Would not recommend right now. Needs a little TLC. Also the Sunday we arrived WAY overbooked. Had a 12:05 tee time...got off about 12:50. Also noticed lots of 5-somes on the course. Staff was pleasant.

We played on a Sunday with a threesome. Pretty much had the course to ourselves. Even with a lot of rain the past week the course drained quite well. Cart paths only (of course) and when you walked out you understood why. Have heard stories of bad experiences in the clubhouse with staff (especially when using golfnow.com) but I can say they were polite and treated us great. Any time I have friends come from out of town and they want to play the best- I take them to Grandover. In My opinion both courses are the best in the triad! If you are considering and have never played there...do yourself a favor and book a tee time today !!
