Why Choose This Destination?
Ten Courses, Zero Weak Links
Pinehurst doesn’t offer variety for the sake of it—it’s structured for it. From major-tested tracks to walkable classics and social short courses, every round fits a different kind of player—and a different kind of day.
Group Flow Is Built In
This isn’t a resort that accommodates golf trips. It’s one that’s designed around them. Lodging formats, tee time systems, shuttles, and property layout are all geared toward moving groups without friction.
The Prestige Is Earned
U.S. Opens don’t return here by accident. The place runs sharp. The staff knows what’s coming. And walking up the 18th on No. 2 doesn’t feel like hype—it feels like history, because it is.
Time to Breathe Between Rounds
Whether it's a drink at The Deuce, a reset at the spa, or The Cradle under lights, Pinehurst gives players room to settle in. The trip never feels rushed. And that’s a big part of why they want to come back.
Plenty of Pros burn out planning a trip like this.
You won’t.
-
Intentional
Every part of Pinehurst feels considered—on purpose. The routing. The village layout. The way a shuttle shows up without a scramble. It’s not just that it works—it’s that it was designed to work for golf. You don’t have to force a group to fit here. The destination already knows how groups move. -
Rhythmic
There’s a natural cadence to a Pinehurst trip. It’s not frantic like a Vegas itinerary, not spaced-out like a coastal resort. Morning rounds roll into slow lunches. Pairings shift, but the group stays connected. Even off-course, the property gives space to breathe without losing momentum. You don’t just play Pinehurst—you settle into it. -
Rooted
It’s not pretending to be anything. Pinehurst doesn’t need branding campaigns to feel important. The weight is already there—in the turf, the clubhouse walls, the walk from tee to green on No. 2. It’s where American golf grew up, and the place still carries that humility and permanence.

No. 1
Easy Start, Honest Feel
Short, walkable, and clean. A Ross original that doesn’t try to intimidate. Perfect as a warm-up round or a first-day arrival option with just enough personality to start the week right.
-

No. 2
The Benchmark
Donald Ross’s masterpiece is as much about decisions as execution. The crowned greens deflect anything lazy, and the subtleties in approach angles reveal themselves slowly. Walking up 18 with the clubhouse behind the green still feels as serious as it should.

No. 3
Sharp Shots, Short Yardage
At just over 5,100 yards, No. 3 punches above its weight. The routing is tight, the green surrounds are clever, and the tempo suits players who enjoy shot shaping without the grind.
-

No. 4
Movement and Memory
Gil Hanse’s 2018 redesign brought width, sandscapes, and big visuals—but kept the pressure on second shots. It plays looser than No. 2, but with just as much shape and rhythm. It’s the course you’ll want to loop again before leaving.

No. 5
Calm, Parkland Rhythm
Wide fairways, soft doglegs, and a traditional parkland style make No. 5 the go-to for relaxed rounds. Great for mixed-ability groups or decompressing after a heavier day.
-

No. 6
Transitional, with Bite
Set slightly away from the core property, No. 6 blends residential edges with smart, modern play. Solid mix of risk-reward holes and a few carries that wake you up. Less classic, more utilitarian—but it earns its spot in the rotation.

No. 7
Big, Strong, and Honest
Rees Jones added weight here—long carries, thick rough, and sharp bunkering. It's a demanding round that rewards staying engaged all the way through. For players who don’t mind a little wear in exchange for pride.
-

No. 8
Quiet Confidence
A favorite among returning guests, No. 8 offers flow and space—classic Tom Fazio. Fairways are generous, but there’s enough movement in the greens and elevation to keep attention tight. Ideal for mid-trip when the group needs something polished but less punishing.

No. 9
The Signature Curveball
Originally private, Nicklaus’s layout adds a different accent. Strong par 4s, water carries, and conditioning that stands out. It’s the round you assign to your low-handicap guys who want to post.
-

No. 10
The Wild Card
New, bold, and unpolished—in the best way. Tom Doak’s routing over quarry land and dramatic sandscapes brings elevation not seen elsewhere at the resort. Visually striking and full of short-side risk, it forces players to trust the shot, not the yardage.
-

No. 11
Coming Soon!
Currently in development by Coore & Crenshaw, No. 11 will expand the resort’s range even further—bringing minimalist routing and natural sandhills terrain into the lineup. Worth watching for repeat hosts planning beyond next season.

The Cradle
The Release Valve
Nine short holes, no scorecard pressure, music in the background, drinks in hand. It’s social golf done well—and a perfect cap to a full day. Walk it barefoot, play a wedge game, or turn it into a team shootout. The most fun you’ll have under 130 yards.
FAQs
-
Spring and fall are ideal, with mild weather, firm course conditions, and lighter crowds compared to peak summer. Shoulder seasons also make it easier to secure preferred tee times and group lodging. Winter trips are quieter and slower-paced, with spa and dining options still in full swing.
-
Most groups fly into Raleigh-Durham International (RDU), just over an hour away by resort shuttle or private transfer. Fayetteville, Charlotte, and Greensboro are also within reach. Once on-site, there’s no need for a rental car—shuttles handle everything across the resort and village.
-
Ideally, 6–9 months ahead—especially for trips built around marquee courses like No. 2 and No. 4. Group lodging blocks, tee times, and private dining space fill quickly, particularly in spring and fall. Earlier planning gives you more flexibility—and more control.
-
Everything from lodging and tee times to private transfers, group dining, and caddie coordination can be built into your plan. Depending on your goals, that might include replay rounds, evening pairings, off-course activities, or time to reset between play. The details shift, but the outcome doesn’t: a trip that feels handled.

Because you know how much of your time gets eaten up behind the scenes. With the right support, you stay focused on the group while the trip runs smoothly—flights land, rooms fit, tee sheets hold. The credit still goes to you. It just costs less to get there.
