"Woods"

Honestly a great place to play for the price. Quiet, relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. Not a difficult course and is still being beautified. Overall was a great day.

Pleasant Round

The front 9 played very fast - about 90 minutes. However, on the back nine it two 2.5 hours. The staff was very friendly, helpful and appreciative of my playing at their course. The value for the price was great. I would play the course again if I was in the area.

Good Value

My life-long friend and I met at this course. He lives south of Charlotte, and I'm in Raleigh. The course conditions were OK. The layout wasn't so difficult it was not enjoyable. We played from the white tees, but I would play from the blues when I return (12 hdcp).The greens were a little 'hairy' compared to what I am used to. Tee boxes had grass about 1 1/2 - 2 inches high. I think if they invested some more care in the course it could be a better experience.

Good for the money

Good course for the money…you get what you pay for. Staff was nice, fast play. It’s got good bones but needs some grooming. Lots of weeds in the fairway and not much of a difference between the rough and fairway. Bunkers were like concrete. Greens were in good shape though. I would play again considering the cost of the round.

First impressions

The staff was super friendly and great! Course conditions very good overall, but the tee boxes were very long grass and some greens are a little beat up. Fairways are great. Unfortunately no range here, but has nets to warm up. Far from the worst I've played, and will come back for the price

Good Course, Slow Play

Returned to Whispering Wood after playing the course several weeks ago and enjoying it. Not the same experience due to the extremely slow pace of play. My group had to wait to hit at all but one tee box, sometimes for quite a while. A course Marshall came by at the 7th hole and said the pace was going to speed up, but it never did. Hot day and coupled with lots of waiting means a not-as-enjoyable round.
