Crap Experience
Love this course normally. Booked solo and everyone that booked my time were no show. Was able to play with a kid on the front but it was brutally slow. Kid only played nine and no one to play back with. Needless to say playing solo midday on a Saturday would not have been fun. Course wouldn't give me a raincheck do to booking on GolfNow. $80 for 9 holes of watching the group in front hack it around, good times...
Great Condition and beautiful Layout
Fairways and greens in great condition as well as the bunkers. True Greens with reasonable pin positions depending on which tee you play of it can be a very long course.
Path
Always CPO…Protecting course for NCAAs next week..Great Course

Difficult
Difficult course. Unusual routing. Excellent condition. Staff very friendly.
Hello, Gunner4. Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at Lonnie Poole Golf Course at North Carolina State University. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
Fun
Maintenance crew does a fantastic job of always keeping the course in excellent condition considering the volume of play it receives. Fun layout and pretty open in most spots. Greens can be tricky if you get in the wrong spots, but also plenty of slopes to utilize to get the ball close on approach shots. Pace of play isn’t very good, but that’s due to amount of play and course difficulty. Rangers do their best to keep play moving, but aren’t obnoxious about it. Best public course in Raleigh and always enjoyable to play.

Course is a gem, restaurant leaves a bad taste.
Love the course. It is difficult and challenging in all the right ways. The restaurant was a double bogey at best. I’ll not eat there again but will keep going back to play and practice.
Hello, u314159459022. Thank you for visiting us at Lonnie Poole Golf Course at North Carolina State University. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Slow but enjoyable
Slow day, cart path only. Starting to green up but several bare spots on the green collars. The greens were quick but inconsistent due to rain and time of year.

Double booked
Unfortunately there was a 27 hole tournament on the day that i played. That resulted in a shortage of carts and very slow play. If you like 5 hr rounds this course is great. If not go elsewhere.

Greens beat up
Pace was play was extremely slow. Just over 5 hours to play. A lot of ball marks all over the greens, which a shame on such a nice course.

Great course/ Unfriendly Staff / Slow Pace
I live in Raleigh and have played Lonnie Poole many times. I love the course and location. However, the clubhouse staff here have typically been unpleasant and, in my opinion, unwelcoming. I hit balls here nearly twice a week most weeks and have had interactions with a majority of the clubhouse staff and would be challenged to remember a pleasant interaction above just being asked what I need. I certainly am not expecting a red carpet, but just be prepared to feel like you can’t leave the clubhouse fast enough for them.
Of course I’ll be back because of the proximity. But I wouldn’t go out of my way to play here- only because of staff.
If you’re looking for a fun course with great staff go play Duke. Some of the nicest staff and the majority of people that play there are very friendly. The greens are also in better shape and much faster if you prefer that.

Slow going
Course was in great shape, starting to green up but the pace was terrible.

Lonnie Poole firstimer
Was surprised and impressed. My only caveat was the condition of the course, but given the time of year - mid-March - I understand the conditioning - trimmed down rough, early stages of new grass, etc. will have to play in high season to review again.
