East at Bermuda Run Golf Club

The East Course at Bermuda Run Golf Club represents a collaboration between North Carolina architect Ellis Maples and Ed Seay, who worked extensively with Arnold Palmer's design firm. Opened as part of a residential golf community in the Piedmont region of North Carolina, the course reflects the design sensibilities of the 1970s, when Bermuda Run was developed as one of the area's more ambitious golf-centered real estate projects. The property sits in the rolling terrain west of Winston-Salem, where the landscape transitions from the coastal plain toward the foothills.

The routing makes use of the natural elevation changes characteristic of this part of North Carolina, with fairways that move through corridors of mature hardwoods and pines. Water features come into play on several holes, typical of courses designed during this era when lakes and ponds were often incorporated both for strategic interest and irrigation purposes. The layout balances risk-reward opportunities with straightforward holes, offering variety in both length and shot requirements across the round.

Bermuda Run operates as a semi-private facility, with the East Course serving as one of multiple layouts on the property. The club has maintained its role as a regional amenity for both members and outside play, hosting local tournaments and providing a venue for competitive golf in the Triad area. The course conditions and maintenance reflect the standards expected of an established North Carolina club with a residential membership base.
