It’s been better

Fairways were very thin . Bunkers were unplayable . Tee boxes were equal amounts of dirt and grass .
This is a challenging yet fun layout but needs some work

Always a challenge

Recently aerated greens are recovering nicely. All 3 nines are fun but not easy. Bermuda rough will make approach shot tough if you miss the fairways. Bunkers can be a little thin so if you are accustomed to fluffy sand you will need to change your wedges to less bounce.
Play the white tees to really test your game. Grey tees are too easy

A Challenge

Greens are as good as any in the area. The three. Nines are very challenging requiring every club in your bag. Errant shots will lead to bogey or more
One of the best practice ranges in the area.
Staff is great.

Needs upkeep

Obvious lack of money to maintain a good layout. Bunkers are overgrown and unplayable - they haven’t seen a rake in months. Greens have been punched and are very bumpy. Grass needs to be cut around greens.
The Hornet course is in better shape than Tomcat but that’s not saying much.
They would be better off trying to mss as I rain one 18 instead of having two poor courses.

Beautiful layout but not pretty to play

Beautiful area- nice fairways.
Bunkers so soft everything plugs- not fun
Greens have too many buried elephants making some play like Fantasy land putt putt. Bumpy greens so putting was an adventure
For most golfers a 185 yard par 3 into the wind over water isn’t enjoyable.

Only issue are the bunkers

Great layout

Wonderful course with good variety of holes. Conditions were outstanding but the greens were extremely fast and unfair for most amateurs .
Pro hints on the in cart GPS were very helpful.

Don’t understand why par 3 tee boxes were using mats????

Due to COVID clubhouse was not accessible.

Nice change

Fairly hilly with lots of awkward lies. Too many blind shots if you haven’t played here often . Fairways have severe slopes. Course conditions were good. Very large greens.
They have gone overboard with the social distancing . Had to plead with the pro shop to get inside to use the restroom.

What a surprise

We had a group of 11. Everyone raved about the course . Very good condition from tee boxes to bunkers to greens. Wide open fairways . No gimmicks. Greens ran at a quick pace and not a flat putt to be found .
New clubhouse and helpful staff.
A bargain price for quality golf.

Very average

A nice challenging layout with visually appealing holes. Fairways were very thin for this time of year. Collars around greens were almost dead. Greens discolored in patches withvwhat looked like dead bent grass. This could be a really nice course but superintendent needs to up his game and get grass to grow.

Worth the drive

A fun layout with a variety of holes. Some elevation changes is a nice change from a lot of local courses. Too much difference in yardage from white (5700 )to blue (6400) so play a mix. Several Front 9 greens still need some work but work is being done. Fairways and bunkers in good condition. Speed of greens was about 10 which was great.

Must play

With 27 holes this is a fantastic choice .
A very challenging course in excellent condition. Par 5s are true three shot holes.
Black and orange 9s have lots of trees - white 9 is more wide open and shorter.
Bunkers are the only thing needing improvement.
Very good practice range and putting greens.
Staff is great

Good group trip

Tranquil setting and in pretty good condition for early spring. Greens were fast and rolled nicely. Lots of mounds and slopes if you miss a green made for tough chipping. Somewhat repetitive tee to green. Local knowledge would be helpful for scoring.
Not exactly Mr Persinality at check in.
Nice restaurant for after the round

Challenging

One of 3 mines and probably the toughest.
Very fast Bermuda greens. Fairways and fringes are coming along with warmer weather. Variety of holes makes this nine a real challenge. No 2 is a true uphill par 5 that requires three good shot to save par. No 9 will test even the low handicaps.

Better than most

A well kept course that challenges all golfers. The white tees are more than enough for all but the longest hitters. Two good par 5s can make or break your round. Lots of trees and some elevation changes makes for a scenic round

Course for all golfers

Fairways in great shape for early in the year. A few spots on a few greens but overall course in great shape. Wide fairways and numerous tees makes the course pretty friendly. That is until you get to the verybinfulsting greens. Put lag putts at a premium dir scoring.
Only draw back was sprinklers on while on several greens and two greens with standing water from over watering.

Great for ego

Wide open fairways so let the driver loose.
From tee to green the course was in good condition but the bent grass greens are taking a beating in the heat. Very thin greens with bare spots getting worse.
Don't even think about walking- nice rides through the trees from green to tee but it would be a long walk.
Played in well under 4 hours.
If greens survive it's an easy course

Top tier

The best conditioned course in the triangle. Course superintendent is the best. Perfect bent grass greens. Score on the par 3s and 5s because the par 4s will demand length and accuracy. Be prepared for fast greens

A fun layout in great condition. Doesn't get the credit it deserves in the Raleigh area. Minimal clubhouse but good practice facility and a first rate course. Some length on par 3s and par 5s that challenge even single digit handicaps. Course is always in great shape
