PRESTONWOOD COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Cary, NC, USA
Designed by Rick Robbins, Tom Jackson


Prestonwood Country Club's Fairways course is located in Cary, a rapidly developed suburb in the Research Triangle region of North Carolina. Designed by Tom Jackson and Rick Robbins, the course serves a private membership in an area that has seen significant residential and commercial growth over recent decades. The layout reflects the design sensibilities common to upscale Carolina country club developments from its era, with tree-lined fairways and water features integrated into the property's natural topography.
The course occupies rolling Piedmont terrain characteristic of the region, with elevation changes that are moderate rather than dramatic. Mature hardwoods and pines frame many holes, and strategic bunkering defines landing areas and green complexes. Water comes into play on several holes, a typical feature of courses built in this part of North Carolina where natural streams and constructed ponds are often incorporated into the routing. The conditioning standards reflect the expectations of a private club serving an affluent membership base in one of the state's most prosperous communities.
Prestonwood functions as a family-oriented country club with amenities beyond golf, including tennis, swimming, and dining facilities. The Fairways course provides the primary championship layout for members, hosting club competitions and social golf throughout the year. Cary's location near Raleigh and Durham places the club within a competitive market of private facilities, and Prestonwood has established itself as a fixture in the local country club landscape.
