The Neuse Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Neuse Golf Club was ranked as one of the best public golf courses in North Carolina, second only to Pinehurst. The layout winds along the Neuse River across rolling hills that are dotted with rocky outcroppings. Towering, mature pines accent the landscape as well, especially along the fairways. Each hole provides a dramatically different challenge and unique scenery. Views of the winding river can be enjoyed on almost every hole. A variety of bunkers and doglegs are strategically placed throughout the golf course, demanding both accuracy and thoughtful strategy. The design closely follows the natural contours of the hilly terrain. Dramatic elevation changes guarantee that flat lies will be hard to find. The golf course is no easy feat but the beautiful scenery and interesting hole designs will appeal to any player.

Excellent Course
I love playing the Neuse. I had an excellent score and the pace of play was excellent. The course is challenging but playable and very scenic. The one change that I wish the course planners hadn’t made was the red tees. The red tees use to be 5280 something in length for ladies. The silver/hybrids are confusing and not as fun to play. I can play the silver but the previous red tees length, challenge, and playability were more ideal. Overall, I do love playing this course.
Amazing improvements
Haven't playrd The Neuse in a couple of years, but what a dramatic improvement. Fairways were in really good shape and rough was cut to playable levels and thick. The star of the show were the greens - firm and fast and in perfect condition. Traps in good shape and cultivated well. Our foursome played in 3 hours and 45 minutes, and had a very enjoyable round.. Can't say enough about how impressed I was by the improvement - it's now a really good place to play!!
Trouble with golf now reservations
Didn't actually get to play. This is the THIRD time a golf now reservation has gotten screwed up.
First time: made reservation, golf course doesn't have in their system. GN has the reservation, has to spend 15 minutes on the phone to get it square, got to play and crisis averted.
Second: booked round. Notified friend. Get kicked back a day or 2 later after booking because of a tournament. GN auto refunded
Third: booked a week in advance. Show up to course and this time they actually have a tournament (I asked about a couple of weeks ago and she had no idea what I was talking about) DID NOT get to play. So I booked a week in advance and an hour before my tee time on a Saturday in November with 73 degree weather, I'm told sorry, no dice.
.
I have NEVER had one issue with a golf now reservation. I've had 3 and my only 3 issues with this golf course. Obviously whomever coordinates with GN does not do that part of the job well. 2 of these are in the last month with me. I wonder how many other issues they have?
Fix your bunkers
Love the course, play it almost daily. But the bunkers need work. Some are soft, some are hard as rock. outside of that, course is in great shape. If they gave some serious attention to the bunkers this place would be 5 stars from me.
Beware of the middle bunker in the short area. There's literal blacktop underneath it. Not even joking. Actual concrete. Scraped my 60° wedge pretty badly.
Great layout with perfect playing conditions
Great value for the cost and play!! The course is in great shape and the greens are well groomed. Pace of play was not an issue and we never felt rushed from the group behind us or in front of us.
Excellent afternoon's entertainment
The course was in excellent condition given the amount of rain in the previous 24 hours
Greens fast although a little sandy
Fairways well manicured
Pace of play was somewhat slow, over 4 1/2 hours for 18 holes in a buggy is too long
Would i play it again, in a heart beat yes
Good value for money
Excellent Condition
Greens were unbelievably true and quick.
Other than the need for more sand in some of the bunkers, the course is in mint condition.
Great layout, fair course if you play from the appropriate tees.
