Pine Needles Resort

Over the years, honors have been showered on these courses. For example, this year, Golf Digest awarded 4½ stars to Pine Needles and Golfweek named the course to its list of America’s Best Top 100 Classic Courses. Meanwhile, Mid Pines was awarded 4 stars by Golf Digest and was named No. 4 in America’s Best State-by-State Public Access Courses by GolfWeek.

Don’t let the publicity and prizes intimidate you. You’re going to experience wonderful and playable golf at Pine Needles and Mid Pines. “Both are fun to play and challenging for any level of player,” says Chip King. “They’re the kind of courses that you want to play again and again.”

Great course; terrific condition. Played it as part of a company tourney. It was supposedly set up same as 2007 US Women's Open. While, the crowned greens made it a challenge, it set up well for an average golfer.

Overall this is great course in excellent condition. There's not much else to it. It's somewhat forgettable and each hole seems similar. (Not really any distinguishing holes) I would recommend trying it out when in the Pinehurst/ Southern Pines area though. I would play Mid Pines over Pine Needles though.

Pine Needles is the best course I have played. I've played it 5 times now, and each time it has been in terrific condition. Some of the members of our group complained about paying so much money to get their lunch eaten. You really have to be 'on' to score well here. The crowned greens make the greens much smaller than they appear, and when they are firm, watch what looked like a decent shot become a missed green. The weekend warrior needs to play defensive golf here by allowing for a bit of run and hitting for the fat part of the green.
