Lonnie Poole Golf Course

Tough greens to read. But a great track and alot of fun to play. Played after a day of rain so conditions were cart path only which didn't help the score and didn't get any didn't roll out at all - lots of plugged balls. But despite that, it was easy to appreciate the layout and design of the course.

5 stars! Bucket list course! Very challenging yet very playable in immaculate condition. Home of the Wolf Pack, the clubhouse is fun to wander around in. Bring your camera, there is wildlife everywhere. Front 9 has 3 par 5's and 3 par 3's which is tons of fun.

First time playing this course, and I would not recommend it for beginners. I’m an experienced golfer and shot a 96, part of that was due to my own mistakes and part of that was due to the difficulty of this course. I’m giving the course 4 stars because there is not a chipping green. The greens are fast and firm, and the fairways are very nice as well. Make sure you head up to the restaurant to eat, they have a sit down style of restaurant or you can get it to go. Based on previous reviews, I didn’t experience slow play all that much. Maybe 2 minutes for a group to finish, but we were actually ahead of pace for most of the round. The price is high for a public course, but I do understand it is a public course and one of the best courses in NC. If you’re in the area, go and play there. If you’re a beginner, get some lessons and practice a lot and then go from the front tees.
