Steep faced bun I ers

They are redoing the majority of the bunkers to make them steep faced walled bunkers. You can count on an extra shot if you're up close. This will totally change this course.

Talamore Golf Experience

I’ve played a lot of the Pinehurst area courses and this one is right up there with the best of them. Outstanding off-season value vs the more expensive tracks. Greens were perfect, course was super unique with pot bunkers spread throughout and overall interesting layout that was very playable. Will definitely be playing again soon

Talamore Good Winter Course

Course was in good shape for winter golf. Greens, tees, and bunkers all were playable - they have mats on the Par 3 tees, understandable to protect the tees, but makes playing a long iron an extra challenge. A couple of the Par 3's are quite long. The llamas are a special treat to see. Choose your tee box wisely, the cold weather really lengthens the course.

Great condition

This course is fantastic! The layout is great with some unusual holes that require strategic shots. Greens have multiple levels which makes for tough putts if your approach shot isn't accurate. The course is in great shape and the greens are true and relatively fast. And whatever you do, stay away from the pot bunkers that are all around the greens! Will definitely play again in the future. One of my favorite courses!

GREAT!

Had an early morning time so I could get home for a family gathering for the holidays. It was cold but no delay, the bar was open and ready. Course was in good shape like always and it’s always good to see Tag Leon in the golf shop.

Fantastic and fun course!

Played here on a Carolinas Golf Association deal and had a blast! Fantastic course, very gettable and fun to play. Greens were immaculate and quick. Got paired with a threesome that was part of a group on a buddies trip and they couldn’t have been nicer and welcoming. Shot 1 over par from the blues which was nice. One quick tip… try to book a morning tee time. Pace of play can get gnarly in the afternoon. Definitely recommend.

Golf Cart fiasco

Arrived 75 minutes early to check in and hit range balls. Purchased range balls but had to wait for cart to be available as range was some distance away.. Did not receive a cart until 10 minutes before teetime so had to forego hitting balls. The twosome we were playing with did not get there cart until 5 minutes after our tee . Our Cart lost power after ten holes. Waited on 11th tee for replacement cart for 20 minutes after which group from behind was approaching. decided to crawl along with cart moving slowly and one of us walking as we waited for replacement. On second call to Proshop were advised that they had three other carts break down and would get to us when they could. After another half hour still no cart and proshop was belligerent as my partner lodged his complaint. Finally cart brought to us on 14th tee approximately 90 minutes after first call. Replacement cart had full power but defective parking brake which made it hazardous on hilly terrain, which describes the back nine. We were not offered any concessions by course for our inconvenience. To make matters worse members playing behind us who had caught up to us only because of the creeping cart kept hitting into us as if we were responsible for the slow play even though by the last three holes we had caught the group ahead of us and were waiting for them to advance beyond our landing areas.
