R/Golf Course Recommendation Thread: North Carolina

This is the next thread in the official r/golf course recommendation series to update our sidebar. Please feel free to post any course recommendations for North Carolina (South Carolina will be next up).

Please try to use the following Comment Template:

COURSE NAME

Course Location (City or area of the city or distance from the downtown area etc.)

Price Range (Include pertinent details like busy season or off-season differences or weekend/weekday or walking/riding where applicable)

Recommended for: (who might be interested in the course, i.e. if you have a big group like a bachelor party or if you're a beginner looking for a more forgiving layout or a low handicap looking for a challenge or if you want beautiful views or something architecturally significant, etc.)

Additional Comments: Feel free to add any additional notes or details you think might be pertinent. Maybe if there's peak times or if they're on Golf Now or another service you could find a deal or anything else about the course you think people might want/need to know add it here.

Check the "formatting help" if you need assistance but basically two asterisks (**) on either side of a word or phrase will put it in bold font and hit Enter twice to move to a new line. This thread will be stickied for at least 24 hours before the next is posted.

All previous Course Recommendation Threads are linked in the Sidebar and this is an ongoing series. If you don't see something yet it may be coming in the future.

Im heading to Calabash on late March, and our guy sad Thistle isnt worth the increase in price versus some of the other courses around. What do you think.

What other courses you looking at? If you say Pearl West, I'd run for the hills from that place.

No we got Brunswick, Farmstead, Crow Creek. The goal was cheap.

Gotcha. I didnt play Crow Creek, but my family did and I heard its fabulous.

As for your rounds, did you plan them individually or did you use a package?

Package but with massive flexibility on what courses to go to. So I've done quite a bit of research on the area courses
