With stunning mountain vistas, pristine beaches, and some of the best golf courses anywhere, North Carolina has become a ‘natural’ location for an amazing array of spas and resorts and golf courses. If you’re looking to treat yourself to a first-class holiday, NC has got an ideal location suited to your individual tastes.
NC is home to the venerable Pinehurst Resort, named the best golf resort in America by Travel & Leisure Golf Magazine, as well as dozens of other luxury retreats centered around classically designed courses.
Golfers seeking golf destinations across NC’s diverse landscape face the daunting – but fun – task of choosing between the mountains, the coast, and the vast Piedmont between them.
Esteemed golf course designers and golf professionals have created gems in all three regions. From Donald Ross’ century-old Pinehurst No. 2 to new mountain courses from Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson to charming coastal courses that blend ocean ecosystems into a challenging 18 holes, North Carolina offers an enviable selection of courses for golfers of all ages and skill levels.
On the North Carolina coast, you can gaze out on the ocean as you tour beachside fairways. Or you can take your game higher, to the mountain courses in the west of the state, where you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking scenery. With excellent lodgings, great courses, fine Carolina hospitality and a century of golf history and tradition, North Carolina is a golf experience not to be missed!
