The course is known for a quick pace of play and offers a haven for beginners and seasoned players alike. More than just a golf course, Harry L. Jones Sr. is a community gathering point. It has a legacy of fostering an inclusive environment, and this is where local players can hone their skills.

Getting there

Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) serves as the gateway, placing you less than twenty minutes from Harry L. Jones Sr. Golf Course on the city's northwest side. The drive from the terminal follows I-85 north before peeling west into neighborhoods where the urban grid softens into tree-lined residential streets. This is municipal golf at its most accessible - no winding country approaches or guarded gates, just a straightforward passage through Charlotte's west end to a course that has quietly served the community since 1960, its first tee waiting just beyond a modest clubhouse and parking lot.
