Olde Point Golf Course sits in Hampstead, a small coastal community in southeastern North Carolina between Wilmington and the beaches of Topsail Island. Designed by Jerry Turner and opened in the late 1990s, the course occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of the Carolina coastal plain, with natural wetlands, mature pines, and hardwoods framing many holes. Turner, a regional architect active primarily in the Carolinas, created a layout that works with the property's natural features rather than imposing dramatic earthwork on the landscape. The routing takes advantage of elevation changes modest by coastal standards, offering variety in hole corridors and strategic options. Water hazards appear on several holes, reflecting the area's natural drainage patterns and tidal influences from nearby waterways. The course serves as a daily-fee facility accessible to both locals and visitors to the North Carolina coast, providing a straightforward test of golf without the exclusivity or premium pricing of resort destinations. Olde Point functions as a neighborhood amenity and regional public option in an area where golf development accelerated during the 1990s building boom. The course reflects the era's emphasis on playability for a range of skill levels while incorporating enough challenge to maintain interest for regular play. Its location near the Intracoastal Waterway and beach communities makes it part of the broader network of accessible courses serving the Brunswick County and greater Wilmington golf market.
