Uwharrie Point Course





Uwharrie Point is a Tom Fazio design situated at Old North State Club in New London, North Carolina, approximately an hour northeast of Charlotte. The course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the Uwharrie Mountains region, one of the oldest mountain ranges in North America, where the landscape features mature hardwoods, natural elevation changes, and exposed rock outcroppings that Fazio incorporated into the routing. The property's topography allows for varied hole corridors and strategic interest without the dramatic elevation swings found in mountain courses farther west. Fazio's design work here reflects his approach to private club golf, emphasizing playability across different skill levels while maintaining challenge from the back tees. The routing takes advantage of natural land movement, with holes that turn through wooded areas and open to broader views across the Piedmont countryside. Water features and bunkering follow Fazio's characteristic aesthetic, framing landing areas and greens with visual clarity. The greens themselves offer contour and internal movement that reward precise approach play. Old North State Club operates as a private facility serving members from the Charlotte metropolitan area and surrounding Piedmont communities. The club provides a traditional country club experience with golf as the central amenity, complemented by dining and social programming typical of established North Carolina private clubs. The course remains relatively low-profile in national rankings but serves its membership as a well-maintained Fazio layout in a region with limited access to designs by architects of his prominence.

Old North State Club lies in the rolling Uwharrie foothills of central North Carolina, most easily accessed via Charlotte Douglas International Airport, roughly an hour's drive northeast through Stanly County's pastoral farmland and wooded ridges. Private arrivals often favor Concord Regional Airport, a discreet gateway just forty minutes west of the property. The final miles peel away from State Route 740 onto unmarked country roads, where the hum of commerce fades entirely and the landscape opens to reveal one of the state's most quietly guarded retreats - a place where arrival feels less like check-in and more like crossing an invisible threshold into Carolina golf's inner sanctum.

IMO overrated
This place was ranked the #1 course in NC for a bit. Maybe just private courses? Not sure. I’m also not sure that I get why it was ranked #1. Good classic golf. Great vistas. Immaculate fairways and greens, but that was 15 years ago.
