02What golfers say

The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

The first Fazio effort here, a more rugged, hilly layout set off the resort’s walkable core, with more water and elevation than its siblings and a reputation as one of the tougher Pinehurst tracks. Opinions split on whether it is a stout, fair test or short on classic Ross flavor.

Best forShot-makingVariety

Consistently praised

  • Rugged terrain and real elevation change give it a different feel from the Ross courses.
  • More water in play than other Pinehurst courses, demanding accurate driving and approaches.

Worth knowing

  • Sits a few miles off the main village, and tight corridors and water make it unforgiving for wayward hitters, with less of a Ross feel.

Golfers recommend

  • Favor placement over distance off the tee; several holes pinch between hazards.
  • Respect the back nine, widely called the harder side.
