North Carolina golf holidays: legendary Pinehurst courses, Sandhills charm and top-quality resorts, all in one destination.
North Carolina holds a special place in American golf history, and nowhere more so than the Sandhills region around Pinehurst, widely regarded as the cradle of golf in the United States. With more championship courses per square mile than almost anywhere else in the country, a rich tournament heritage including multiple U.S. Opens, and a distinctly relaxed Southern charm, it's a destination that appeals as strongly to golf purists as it does to those chasing a bucket list trip.
The Sandhills' sandy soil and rolling terrain create ideal conditions for golf year round, and the concentration of top tier courses within a short drive of each other makes it easy to build a trip around several rounds without long transfers. Add in warm, genuine hospitality and a slower pace than some of Florida's busier resort areas, and North Carolina offers a golf trip with real substance and history behind it.
Our team's favourite is Pinehurst No. 2, Donald Ross's masterpiece and a multiple U.S. Open venue famous for its distinctive turtleback greens, alongside Tobacco Road, a dramatic and wildly inventive Mike Strantz design that ranks among the most memorable and visually striking courses in American golf.
