Great layout on a fine piece of property with all the hills you need to keep the game interesting. No two holes are alike, but most give you something to think about without resorting to blind shots or gimmickry. This is a shorter course that still lets you take advantage by hitting driver on most tees, but can quickly get its revenge on and around the greens, especially on the back nine. Conditions were solid and it does seem like they have worked hard to maintain those greens. Personally, my back nine got pretty slow for an afternoon round. Sorry but had to edit this 5-star review because I returned and had horrible service. Having played here before and knowing they had a range, I though it would be a convenient place to get some practice in. Yet the second I walked in the shop, the man glared and gave me the confrontational "Can I HELP YOU". I asked how much range balls cost, and he replied "Four dollars, but the RANGE is ONLY for MEMBERS or people PLAYING the COURSE". Then as I was putting my money back in my wallet, turning and leaving, he went ahead and insulted me on my way out the door. Could not believe this guy and wound up practicing and golfing at much more welcoming courses. Website doesnt mention the range is off-limits so I dont get why the disrespect and attitude had to be launched at me for making the mistake to assume they would appreciate my business.

Classic Donald Ross Design Southern pines opened with 9-Holes in 1906, then expaned to 18 holes between 1910-1912.Legendary golf course architect Donald Ross carved 18 of perhaps the most rewarding golf holes in the Sandhills region. A true shotmaker’s golf course, Ross gives players options. At 6300 yards, Southern Pines does not measure up to today’s length of courses, but it makes up for it through a variety of shots from the tee and even more challenges into the greens. The result continues to prove the course’s notoriety as the most entertaining 18 holes of golf in the area. A throwback to days gone by, where bump and run shots were the norm and tee shots demanded precision over length. One trip around this Ross gem will leave you wanting more, not just at that moment, but rather each every time you tee it up. This is how golf should be played. The memories are more vivid and will last a lifetime.

Played 18 on a recent Sunday. Warmed up at the range, short game area and practice green. Range was lacking grass. It was hard to find a decent lie. Short game area was nice as was the putting green. Course layout is interesting. Greens were in good shape. The course needs work around the edges. Cart paths are a shambles and it just feels unkempt for the majority of tee box areas and in general. For the rate being charged, it seems they could put more into it. A few fine touches could really help this course. Pretty much a mixed bag as far as I can see.

What a gem....!!! Our first course in our golf package and it was a good start.. Staff was friendly and the course was in good shape. Greens were in very good shape and greens were somewhat fast. Watch out for sloped fairways and hit to the high side. Old classic club house with a good kitchen. Local tap beer was delicious and the Ruben sandwich was yummy. A must play....

Love the course and the location is very convenient, the rating is strictly based on the employees and their attitudes. The last 2 times I have played the course Ive been graced with the presence of 2 older employees and their lack of concern for the courses guest. All Im saying is when I pay $80 a round I would like to not feel like Im a burden.

A little disappointed with the course, I was hoping this Donald Ross course would be a gem of the likes of Mid Pines and Pine Needles but the design and layout dies not compare.

Tee boxes , fairways and greens are all perfect. The only thing that can use work is the tree areas and the cart path. Enjoyed the course and would defintley return

Great layout with lots of elevation changes... Greens were okay, fairways were nice, but the edges and rough were not in good shape or well maintained.
