Well maintained course
This is a shot makers course, smaller greens but in good condition year round.
Staff is very friendly..
Enjoyed playing this course.
We have played this course twice in December. The course is well maintained and staff is friendly. We hope to play it again while we are in the area.
Course is always in great shape.
Great courses, The two Whispering Pines are always in great shape.
fun course to play
Great layout, greens were excellent. Loved the par threes.
Well Maintained
Fairways recently overseeded and look great. Rough off fairway trimmed nicely, so few lost balls. Greens were suberb. Best I have seen this course.
Good course, I would play again.
Good layout and in good condition. No warning about overseeding. Cart path only. Not a returning nine and halfway house closed, with no warning.
Course has a little of everything.
Well laid out course in quite good condition. Greens would be very nice except people are not repairing ball marks. A good test of golf ability.
Good condition greens quick
The course was in very god condition. The greens were quick and the rough challenging. Great bargain at golf now prices.
Entirely decent course, could be a good value
I played the Whispering Pines River course on a Sunday in September at 10 am. The course was not crowded/overbooked so play moved at a good pace. Although the course is at a "resort" near Pinehurst, don't expect it to knock your socks off. It's a nice course, well-maintained with an average layout. It's one of the easier courses I played all year. I'm not from that area, but I thought it was worth the steeply-discounted price I payed to play it and was satisfied with the experience. If you're looking for a course that's pristine, unique and challenging, you should look elsewhere.
course is challenging but fair. good test of your game.
Whispering woods has two courses. River and Pines. We played the river course. it wasn't the longest but a few holes have shoots to hit out of. Iron accuracy is a premium. length off the tee is not important as where it is.
Tight landing zones, dog legs and small greens characterize this course.
From the tee boxes the fairways look to be ample width, but the landing zones are cut to only a few yards wide in the Bermuda rough; accuracy is a must off the tee box. Several of the holes (especially on the front nine) have very small greens which require an approach shot from the fairway to hold the green. Many of the holes are dog legs so the ideal shot is a shaped shot to a narrow landing zone. While the course does not look long and challenging on the card, it takes good ball control to score well.
Course is OK. A good value, but fairways were a bit ragged, and grass was high in tee boxes.
The price I got was very good, but I was not told they had just aerated the greens. if would have reconsidered if I had known. Pace of play was very slow, there were 2 fivesomes on the course a head of me, and would not let smaller groups play through. Layout/Routing was short, but interesting. Course was in average conditions, fairways were generally OK, but there were some bare spots and ragged lies. Tee boxes were in similar shape.
Great value.
These two layouts provide all the challenge needed for average players. All holes are well maintained, and the Pro Shop Staff and Groundskeepers are friendly and do their best to provide a great experience. As a local, I really enjoy the opportunity to play these great golf courses for such a reasonable Rate.
Great for the price
The River Course is great for the beginner/intermediate level player. On golf now I got out there for 13 dollars and I couldn't ask for much more.
Great Course
Played the River Course. Really enjoyed it...would highly recommend!
Great first experience with Golfnow
Great price, Great course, Great Day. Thanks Golfnow and Whispering Pines Golf Club.
Great layout, needs some TLC.
I truly loved the layout of the course. It gave you so many different options to approach each hole. It had great elevation changes, short and long holes. You could hit an iron from many of the tees but they were short enough that you could try to go for it. Some holes required you to shape shots both ways. You had to think your way through this mature course. The fairways and rough were in good shape. The problem is that the greens were super slow and the bunkers were full of leaves, twigs, and many more things. I would love to play this course if it were maintained better.
Well maintained.
A few holes wouldn't be forgiving for anyone with a slice or hook but overall it's a great course. It was raining off and on when I went along with the greens being punched so I left a bunch of putts a little short.
Great course
We recently played 18 holes (Pines Course) at Whispering Pines and it was wonderful. The course was great and the staff were extremely friendly. I will definitely return again. Bill
Greens are very good.
The River is in better condition, greens and fairways, than the Pines.
