I want to first start out with my review as saying there has been a recent change of owners and this was the first real golf experience I have had in Charlotte. Before I talk about my experience I wish to add that the course itself is in a poor location and very difficult to find (especially one new to the Charlotte area). Being that it is pretty much directly across from Providence Golf Club I got lost (of course) and missed my tee time.
Upon first entering, was greeted by the golf head professional who seemed very nice and did not mind that I was late for my tee time once I explained the fact that I did get lost. He helped me out by giving me the twilight special. I did wish to purchase a golf glove, however, they had no inventory given the recent changes in management.
The course was not in great shape even given the amount of rain Charlotte has gotten. The fairways were not mowed well and in places where they were mowed the "mowed" grass was all over the fairways. Although it is a "links" course much of the heather I noticed has been mowed. Most of the bunkers were unplayable and were not kept in great shape. Lastly, the greens were EXTREMELY long which I attribute from the ownership being changed and the previous owners not taking good care of the course.
Really enjoyed the layout of the course and the course is very narrow and has the potential to be a VERY difficult and fun course to play. My rating reflects the potential I believe this course has and I really really hope the owners clean it up, keep the bunkers, cut the greens properly, and add heather in the appropriate places I really think this course has the potential to be a great course. I will for sure be back to see the progress. Thanks again to the courtesy staff!
