day at Turtle

course was in good shape, fairways and rough pretty green, with recent rains, the bunkers were in bad shape, a lot of them washed out.Greens were nice, but you could tell they have had a lot of play. But all and all, still a very good course to play.

Day at the creek

for the money, not bad. Greens were bad but the rest of the course in tough shape, fairways mostly burnt out, need watering, trees need trimming back.

Lancaster visit

Staff very friendly and helpful, after a morning round at another course, had a very nice lunch in the grill, then went out to play. Course was in excellent condition, well manicure tees, fairways and greens. Greens rolled very smooth and true.You do have to play once or twice to know where to place your ball on some of the holes. But all things considered, had a very enjoyable round.

Wetlands visit

Staff very friendly, starter kept things moving, depending on your tee box selection, look of holes vary, including degree of difficulty. Greens rolled nice, and with the bends and turns, there were a lot of risk and reward shots available to you.I would go back again.

Delaware Stop

Although a gave average ratings, there were a lot work going on around the course, new tee boxes being put in, a new green was built but not open, bunkers were in bad shape, needed a lot of work. A few more years of improvements and further upgrades, then it will be probably a a good course, but right know a wouldn't recommend it to my friends.

The Preserve

Great course, played early in season, would look better later on. Although fairways and rough were dormant, which would have been better visually, with elevation changes and fairway turns, it was a very enjoyable round. Good bunker placements and subtle sloping greens, which putt very nicely, everybody who can, should try this course. Course attendants very helpful.

Whispering Pines visit

Greens were very good, rolled great, had a few elevation changes on holes with sloping greens. Fairways still dormant, as with some of the rough but all in all would come back and still need to play the river course, only played the pines.

Deercroft Visit

Greens were nice and rolled very well, fairways and rough still dormant, bunkers needed some work. Still my son and I enjoyed ourselves, spent the day and did 45 holes. Before playing got a rundown on course from owner Ted Robinson on certain holes and very important tip, after pegging the yardage, adding a club and two uphill, helped with the rest of our stay in Southern Pines. Also we liked the back nine better.

Since I read course had renovations done to it, I didn't notice any improvements. I had booked a 10:09 tee time for 2 and when I checked the time and asked why I wasn't on the tee box, I was told the other twosome wasn't here yet, I asked what's that have to do with me, and they send the 10:27 tee time out. I'm there, if someone else is late, that's the courses' problem not mine. Improvements need to be made for me to recommend this place to others.

Bad experience

Considering no extreme temperatures and no long periods of rain, I found a lot of damage around the course due to having too much water.But the most annoying thing the the pace of play, extremely poor, no rangers, players standing around watching others play, having no clubs while waiting for others to finish hitting and bring the cart to them.Because of this I had to skip 2 holes, 15 minutes between shots is too long, besides a lot of players had their own carts.

challeneging holes

greens rolled nice for being early in season, some bunkers still did work, pace of play on back nine was a bit to slow but overall a good test of golf.

the course has a great layout

always been a very good challeging course, early in season so work being done, but on this occassion pace of play very poor even though rangers were aware but telling you the slow group is a little behind when in fact they are 2 holes behind is a little concerning.

alot of elevation changes

course was in good shape, greens were in very good condition and rolled very nicely, the bunkers were another story, they appeared to have been unattended from regular maintenance, footprints all over. Our tee time was delayed because they did a shotgun start in the morning and would not allow us to tee off.

best island green around

although greens were aerated a few weeks back, greens are in great shape, fairways are in great shape for this time of year and bunkers have been worked and are pretty good shape also.
