Mid Pines
Mid Pines Golf Club is a restored Donald Ross design known for its elegance, balance, and subtle strategic demands.

Its natural flow and walkability make Mid Pines a timeless and highly enjoyable round that reflects the essence of traditional golf architecture.
Mid Pines, Pine Needles, & Southern Pines
Pine Needles
Pine Needles Golf Club is a championship-caliber Donald Ross design with a long history of hosting major women’s championships. Featuring wide fairways, natural sandy edges, and demanding green complexes, the course places a premium on smart angles and strong iron play. Pine Needles offers a slightly more robust test while maintaining the same classic Sandhills character found throughout the region.
Southern Pines
Southern Pines Golf Club delivers a compelling blend of history and modern restoration, highlighting Ross’s original intent through widened corridors, exposed native sand, and strategic green surrounds. The course emphasizes creativity and decision-making, allowing multiple ways to play each hole. Its restored presentation and strong routing have made it a standout complement to Mid Pines and Pine Needles.

Together, they offer a cohesive and walkable golf experience defined by tradition, understated challenge, and a deep respect for the land.
Tobacco Road
Tobacco Road Golf Club offers a bold and unconventional contrast to the classic Sandhills courses nearby. Designed by Mike Strantz, the course is known for dramatic elevation changes, striking visuals, and forced-perspective design that challenges perception as much as execution.
