About
Resort Course at Talamore Golf Resort is a Rees Jones masterpiece that was nominated as "Best New Public Course of the Year" when opened and has become a regular stop for annual returnees to Pinehurst.
The centuries-old tradition of using llamas to help humans carry packs has been revived with a new twist at Talamore. These gentle, hardy animals can carry two bags of clubs with ease and sure-footedness. Their soft padded feet are kind to the delicate surfaces of a golf course. Known for their friendly and quiet manners, llamas make the perfect caddies. Now you can treat yourself and your friends to a truly distinctive golf experience.

Nice course condition ok off season
While I played in early spring and enjoyed layout , several tee boxes have issues and did not like having to tee off mats. They are also doing a lot of maintenance which will be excellent when paths are completed but nothing mentioned about this. Greens were sold as being very fast but on day played it rolled slow. Just noted to be aware
Really good resort coarse.
Coarse layout and conditions are top of the line. The range, pro shop, food and amenties all great. Nice merch in the pro shop. We went off first and set the pace.
Terrible management
Talamore was a wonderful course with great conditions in March however the management and customer service was terrible. We started slightly later than our tee time at 3:00 pm with the promise that we'd have no problem finishing. We had to wait for a cart to become available and it ran out of juice on the second hole. The pace of play was worse than the management as we had to wait on every hole, every shot. The drunken foursome, five groups ahead of us held up the entire course and we witness them flipping a cart on the backside of the 12th green. No ranger to move things along. We had to quit after 13 holes due to darkness (7:30 pm). That's right, 13 holes in 4 1/2 hours. They take tee times until 4 pm as well as the entire greens fee. Shame on them. They told me I should come back when it isn't so busy.
Great overall
Fun and challenging course, great atmosphere, friendly staff
Great day on an amazing course.
Golf course was if great shape for this time of year. No complaints.
Great course and layout
This is a great course and we took advantage of the perfect day in Feb to play this course. The course was a bit wet and most par 3 had astro mats to hit off of (which is better than hitting off a wet and soggy tee box). The clubhouse staff were friendly and the on-course team members were very friendly. We had a great time and will return to this course
Pot belly bunkers
Talamore reminds me of course I played inScotland.
Awesome
Great course design. Will try playing when not 40 and windy. Brutal but beautiful bunkering. Really makes you think about your approaches.
Closed for Cold
The course closed for the next few days due to extreme cold. They called me in the morning to inform me so that I did not drive over there. I need to get a refund for the fee I paid to GolfNow.
Good resort coarse.
Layout and amenties were awesome. The merch in the pro shop is really nice as well. We went off first and set the pace.
