Carolina Colours Golf Club sits in New Bern, a historic coastal town in eastern North Carolina where the Neuse and Trent rivers meet. Designed by Bill Love and opened in the late 1990s as part of a residential community, the course occupies gently rolling terrain typical of the Carolina coastal plain, with mature pines, hardwoods, and natural wetland areas defining the playing corridors. The layout incorporates the region's characteristic sandy soil and native vegetation, creating a setting that reflects the transitional zone between the Piedmont and the Atlantic coast. Love's routing takes advantage of the property's natural contours and water features, with several holes playing along lakes and marshland edges. The design emphasizes strategic variety rather than overwhelming length, offering multiple tee options to accommodate different skill levels. Fairways are generally generous, but approach shots require accuracy to elevated or protected greens. The course serves primarily as the centerpiece of its residential community, providing a daily-fee option in a region known more for resort golf along the Outer Banks and Crystal Coast. New Bern's location—roughly midway between Wilmington and the northern Outer Banks—makes Carolina Colours accessible to both locals and visitors exploring North Carolina's coastal heritage. The town itself dates to 1710 and served as the colonial capital, lending historical context to a golf experience that remains focused on playability and natural setting rather than tournament pedigree.
