Played this course last May (2022)... was okay at best... talked with the new greenskeeper who assured that a complete improvement was coming... well... not so much... the tee boxes were complete CRAP- not just a few, but ALL of them!!!! the greens were fair with about half a dozen having disease and 'trenches' dug through.. the layout is great and the course has so much potential, but they truly need to put some money, time, effort into making it such

Played this course multiple times prior. Course is in pristine condition and they must have hired new staff in the pro shop (after reading a few other reviews related to rude employees- which I've experienced as well). Pace of play was AWESOME and we never waited for a single swing. Greens were rolling great- beware, they first 4 greens are a bit slow then BOOM- they speed up real quick!!! Layout is great and not an overly challenging course even from the blues or the tips... beware though, the bugs this time of year!!! Bring your spray and just be prepared, but for any serious golfer, a small inconvenience for this beautiful course!!

My first time playing this course even though I've lived in this area for awhile. Staff friendliness BEYOND exceeded expectations!!! Course conditions average with some areas definitely needing some attention- some fairways and tee boxes burnt up and needing some love. Most of the greens were okay. Layout was great. Put a little more love into this course and it could truly be a gem!!! Will give it another go sometime though!!

Wish we would have played this one on our group trip. Everything was amazing!!

My first time playing here- recommended by a few that I play with at my club. It was about an hour away from me, and I will definitely go back!! I was able to go right off (earlier than my tee time) and started my round. It was so foggy that for the first 5 or 6 holes, I couldn't even see farther than 200 yards (was able to look at the hole layouts via iPhone app- thank Goodness). Layout was awesome!! Saw 2 alligators. Only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the condition of the fairways- they could use a little love: grass definitely needs to be cut a little and MANY divots that need some overseeding. The abundance of the live oak trees was really beautiful. It really was so serene, quiet and peaceful- you'd never know you were on a golf course!! I'll definitely be back to play there again!!

Course was pretty darn awesome!! Tee boxes DEFINITELY needed to be cut down, but could be due to rain over the weekend, but needs a bit of love... definitely would like to come back!!

Pros: Staff friendliness was really good- they were out of their way to keep it organized. Greens were in GREAT shape. Fairways were okay.

Cons: Pace of play was HORRIBLE!! Ranger came around #8 and stated he knew what group was holding us up, but nothing changed. We waited for EVERY single shot after #8. Tee boxes could use a little love and after hole #6, there were no tee markers beyond the blues.

An absolute WONDERFUL time today on the course! Pace of play was absolutely perfect, the other twosome we got teamed with was awesome and everything from tee to green was immaculate!! So far, it's the best course I've played in the Raleigh area and can't wait to play it again!!

I absolutely loved the layout of the course!!! I’m definitely a fan of links-style golf. It was a very hot and humid day, and having it cart-path-only didn’t help, but was understandable. We found out they changed it to 90deg around the 14th hole (group behind us told us they were advised at the turn). It would have been nice if a ranger/player’s assistant would have driven out and told everyone- we didn’t see a ranger the whole day. The fairways were in pretty good shape, tee boxes— not so much. Greens were slow as molasses and definitely needed some work. However, all things considering., I would definitely make the drive to play this track again (was an hour drive). I think it has great potential and I’d be that in prime season minus the recent weather, I bet it’s in phenomenal shape!!

They should really tell you when you book either through GolfNow or otherwise, that the greens were recently punched... they rolled HORRIBLY... pace kinda sucked and never saw a ranger... overall conditions- average at best.. tee boxes need a LOT of work... don’t think I’ll play here again

I played this course YEARS ago and swore that I would never go back. It was a cow pasture and not even worth $10.00. I decided to give it another try this weekend after hearing about all the changes. I know Sean (the PGA Pro there) from previous places and have to say, he's done a good job with it. It still isn't an AWESOME track, but definitely much better than it was! We got a "hot deal" on GolfNow. My father and I teed off before a foursome(the starter advised we could have the tee ASAP and we should get out before the foursome). The pace of play was awesome, and we never saw a group ahead of us the whole day. The only complaint that I have is it's not clearly marked as to where the next tee box is. With the change from 27 to 18, he picked the best 18(19) for it. It was a good place for a little practice, but will definitely play from the blues next time. Good job Sean!!

They stopped putting any money into this course- which is a shame because it used to be quite nice. The first 2 holes are decent, but the rest are absolute junk! The greens are all diseased with dead spots, the tee boxes are horrendous and the fairways have weeds all over. This is definitely not worth the $55.00. I will NEVER play there again!

This place used to be great(condition wise).. it was always a difficult track, but that's why I like it... today, the conditions on #1 and #2 were good... #3-18 were absolutely HORRIBLE!!! greens were diseased, fairways were cut okay, but WAY too many weeds, burnt spots.. the tee boxes were also horrible. Not worth the $55.00. Will never play there again.
