Don’t play in the winter
Pine Course layout is confusing as it’s not well marked. Bunkers were filled with debris and grass was unkempt and dead.
Great Layout
Extremely enjoyable layout with a great variety of holes. excellent pace of play and great staff....
River Course Review
Course was in good shape. Greens were a bit on the slow side and if rolled would have been awesome.
Great course
The river course was a fun challenge. The greens and fairways were in great shape and it was quick and easy to get a last minute tee-time.
Best course for the bucks,.
Love the two courses. Play quality golf in 4 1/2 houts. In gtreat shape for the summer. Make sure it’s on your to play when NC
Nice layout but very poor green conditioning
We enjoyed the layout and feel of the River course but the greens were in very poor shape and the lower holes were saturated. If the greens had been better, I could see how the course would merit much better ratings.
Whispering pines - river course
Course was in much better shape last year. In past, would have recommended to friends.
Very enjoyable golf course
This is by far one of the hidden gems in the Pineapple area. Rates are excellent and the River course is in great shape. The layout can be very challenging but also fun from the forward tees. I will definitely be back!!
Great course
Great course to play.
Shot a 75 from the tips.
Only two fairways were mildly wet.
Greens were rolling pretty well.
10 hole Snack shop had blue motorcycles!!!
Range was not to bad, hitting from the top of a hill.
Staff was very friendly.
Pace of play was perfect.
Great layout but greens were terrible
Played this course every fall for 40 years. Love the layout. Lots of water. Unfortunately the greens were awful this year and we changed our bookings for the remainder of the trip. Will come back if they renovate the greens
River Course
We always play The River Course when our wives are with us. It is very fair for them as they don't hit the ball very far. It is challenging enough for the fellas. The fairways in the greens were in Immaculate shape. Price was exceptional. This is about a 50 minute ride for us, but well worth it. Only criticism is that some of the bunkers the sand is too hard period on one hole I had to put out instead of using my wedge. We love the course. Just wish it was closer to where we live.
Good layout, good condition
Had played course before but not in a couple of years. New management group - Brown Golf - doing a good job in improving course condition. Definitely worth playing.
The river course
Course in great condition, it plays short and requires shot making skills which I don’t have them all lol, but I really enjoy it , back 9 has water on most of the holes .. can’t wait to play the pines the other side
Greens are way past replacement due date. No ranger and one group had entire course backed up.
A funny thing happened on the way to....
I've played this course dozens of times over the last 25 years. It's always been a nice course, not special. The fairways and greens are always in good shape but this course tends to stay wet for a few days after heavy rain. Of all the courses in the area I rate it a "C+." Monday I took some friends there for the first time and they were blown away by the beauty of the course, the layout and the conditions. Sometimes its nice to see something through new eyes. We had a great day and definitely recommend you give it a try!
Whispering Pines West Course (River)
I had played this course many years ago but did not fully recollect it until the 7th hole a long uphill par 5 that I couldn't reach the top of the hill then and did not today either. Course layout is a little tight off the tees visually but has some room in the fairways. Front nine and back nine are similar except the back nine has water in play on 5 holes. Conditions were good today, greens rolled well, bunkers were nice. Recommend this course and there is also a East course.
