Much Improved

I've played Quail Ridge fairly often over the years just for the low price, decent greens and the course layout. I always overlooked the less than ideal fairway conditions because of that low price.
Now, however, the course is in better shape than I've seen it in years. Grass everywhere, and it's kept mowed nicely. No summer burn areas on the greens. Bunkers are worked on a regular basis.
Overall, it's the best deal around and you don't have to spend all day to get around it, the players there move pretty fast. I have walked 18 there many times in 3 hours.
Is it in Country club condition? No. But for what it is, it's pretty good these days.
I'd say come check it out and you'll change your opinion on Quail Ridge.

Good Golf Course.

Overall this is a good golf course! The conditions were good fairways and teeboxes were lush and green not dried out and bare like alot of courses in the Fayetteville area. The greens are quick and undulated and force you to put the ball close or you will have a very tricky putt! I would play here more often if it were closer to me. If I had to nit pick one thing it would be the gas carts and no moniters/tablets for hole overviews and yardages.. I persoanlly think if you are going to spend $80 a round you should have these things. But that doesnt take away from the fact this is a great golf course!

Annual outing

The course conditions were great. Fairways were nice and green, and the greens were very nice. This course was one of the better ones in the area, and we would definitely play there again.

Great course setup. They double seed so they actually had green fairways in late February. Challenging yet still playable. BBC

This didn't have to happen.

Upon arriving at Quail Ridge we noticed a bus and approximately 60 junior golfers either teeing off or already on the course. All were walking and carrying their golf bags. While I applaud the support given to the next-generation of golfers and equally applaud the benefits of walking while playing, it did result in a 5 1/2 hour round, or would have if we had the time to finish.
Our tee time was 8 minutes after the last of the 15 foursomes had teed off. That tee time should never have been offered by Quail Ridge and GolfNow should have been advised by Quail Ridge to that effect. I believe that this incident casts both the course and GN in a negative light and completely destroyed a pleasurable round of golf which was, by no means, cheap.

Great for the money

Course is in great shape, staff is friendly. I highly recommend. The only thing I recommend for improvement are the cart trails and maybe some signs so you know which direction to go.

Liked this course

The course was in great shape other than some thin grass and bare spots off the fairway. Fairways, greens, and tee boxes (the parts you're supposed to play on) were all in terrific shape. Got a Hot Deal to play on a Friday and it was well worth the $40. Course was pretty straight-forward without much water. Bunkers were in good shape. Nothing that I'd call a signature hole, but a very nice course and fun to play. I'll be back.
