Fun golf course

Played alone. I tried not to play up to the group in front and had no one behind me until I reached 18. Tees, fairways and greens were true. The rough was exactly that. Don’t go there. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. For the price I couldn’t do better with this still high season. I look forward to my next trip back. Go Play Lockwood Folly!

Pleasant Surprise

I’ve seen this course on GolfNow but this is the first time playing it. A real gem. I was very pleasantly surprised but the course and the great conditions. Totally enjoyed it and I will return.

Parched is an understatement

Played in a GOLFWEEK Amateur Tour event here today. I have played this course four or five times this year and the conditions were the worst I’ve seen in a long time at any course. Tournament golf and there are no range balls available to warm up. Three employees chatting at the starters table I asked and they flat out said they were “out of range balls”. I asked if anyone ever picks them up. Tees and fairways were dry and hard as rock. I felt as if I were hitting off hard pan all day. Greens were still healing from aeration four weeks ago and quite bumpy and slow. I don’t recommend playing Anderson creek until we get some steady rains or they figure out the irrigation system.

Pleasantly Surprised

One of those courses that I always chose something else. Visited the calabash area two or three times per year for the past twenty five. Brunswick Plantation was always on the radar but either I or someone in my group had a “better” idea. Well Brunswick Plantation is the better idea. Two of us made it around without bumping in to anyone. Course was great tee to green. I’m already checking the calendar for the return trip.

Love Trace!

Greens were a little hairy but just slower than “lightning fast” this past summer. I am always happy at the Trace. I prefer the creek course but the lake is as good as or better.

Sorry To Leave

Played the Creek Course at Carolina Trace on a hot deal from Golf Now. After deducting the service fee and using a Golf Now credit I played a premium course for cheap. It had rained so it was cart path only. Of course, I hit the opposite way and walked a LOT! The person in the shop was very helpful, The course was damp from the rain. However, the tees and fairways were very playable and the greens were lightning fast. I have Carolina Trace high on my list and I'm always looking for an opportunity to play there. The Lake and Creek courses are both wonderful layouts.

Bunkers trouble

I played in a Golfweek amateur tour event at The Preserve at Jordan Lake. Although I would recommend ethos course to a friend I would advise that friend to avoid sand traps at all costs. From tee to green I was very happy with the conditions. Tees fairways and greens were beautiful. The sand traps were as bad as everything else was great. Inconsistent at best, the bunkers might have white sand or red clay. Not fun especially when touch is needed around the greens.. I’m not sure of cost but a few truckloads woul do a lot of good.

Beautiful

Five stars. A little rich for my wallet. Played the white tees which were almost immaculate. Fairways were beautiful when I saw them. Sand was consistent and I saw a lot of them. Greens rolled true. I will come back!

Spend your money elsewhere.

Tee to green this course was in terrible shape.
The grass was uneven and even non existent in some areas of the putting surfaces. This course could be a lot of fun to play. The layout is good, but if they don't invest in the course conditions then it will be gone before long.

Hi, Peter. Thank you for reviewing the course. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game, and we will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Carolina Shores Golf & Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Liquid Sunshine

Played in a steady misty drizzle. The course played long without any roll. Tee boxes, Fairways, and Greens held up beautifully. Shot well over my handicap and loved every minute!

Course was immaculate. Greens were rolling fast and smooth. Stay below the hole. Ball sat up when I hit the fairway. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Dwayne. Can't wait to get back that way.
