Played the week after the US Girls Junior. Course was in great shape, even after a heavy rain the morning we played. Not a bad hole on the course but also lacking in many memorable holes either. Clubhouse, service, food, and vibes are all outstanding.

This course is an absolute masterclass. It forces you to shape the ball both ways and hit all the clubs in your bag. If you aren’t striking your irons well you might be in for a long day. The greens at Duke are diabolical. They are both super quick and have tons of break.

Very nice layout that largely plays through the woods. Very few houses on it. A lot of variety in the holes, with the standouts being 2, 3, 9, 11, 12, 15, and 18. Great value.

Scottish “tartan” theme is really cool. Back to back par 5s on 9 and 10 is a really fun stretch and 18 is one of the hardest holes in NC. Pro shop is awesome

Was in good nick when I played it and overall enjoyed it. Putted off the green into a hazard on the 4th (I think it was the 4th, stupidly severe green).

Good practice facilities, usually off grass. Not walkable, too much forced carry. Usually in good shape.
