Pinehurst & Carolina del Norte

Destination

The cradle of golf in the US.In the state of North Carolina there is a great variety in its topography: sandy soil, big terrain level changes, lakes, rivers, woods, planes ... they have it all!It's no coincidence that the great golf architect Donald Ross (Royal Dornoch) chose this place to stay in 1899, where he designed some of the best courses in the country, which are still very much relevant: Pinehurst, Pine Needles, Mid Pines, Southern Pines, Seminole, Aronimink, East Lake, Augusta CC, Oak Hill, etc.

Accommodation

Mid Pines Inn and Golf Club

• Mid Pines is known for it's Southern hospitality and distinction that dates back nearly a century. Built in 1921, this majestic Georgian-style hotel shows off it's era with grace and charm. The original antiques found in many of the rooms will transport you to a time when every craft was treated as an art. The modern amenities in every room will satisfy golfers, business travelers and families alike.

Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club

Located in the cradle of American golf, this Donald Ross gem still challenges players but does so through a series of risk/reward opportunities that make Mid Pines the kind of course you can enjoy over and over again.

Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club

Built by Donald Ross in 1928 and 4 times host of The Women´s Womens Open provided generous fairways and challenging green sites. There are strong elevation changes throughout the course yet is very walkable. Wayward shots will likely find a bed of pine needles to rest on. Like most Ross courses, the greatness of Pine Needles is in the subtleties of the course as it lies across the natural terrain rather than trying to dominate it.

Southern Pines Golf Club

Obviously Pinehurst No. 2 draws most of the attention from Ross historians wandering North Carolina, but it was not actually the first nine created by the iconic architect in the state. Although the front nine at Pinehurst was indeed Ross’s first design, he actually completed the full 18 at Southern Pines a year before completing the full route at No. 2. Southern Pines is not a long course but is tougher than the yardage due to many elevation changes and tricky greenside surroundings. This is an extremely fun course where golfers of all ability will be able to enjoy it.

Pinehurst #4

• Impressive visually from the tee, its greens blend with exposed areas of sand and huge crossed bunkers with the undulating topography. The lines of the natural ridges of the site create spectacular views and very strategic options in each hole.

Pinehurst #8

• A visually captivating course, challenging and fun to play. It is known for synthesizing all the elements of the Pinehurst golf experience into one design. It has twice hosted the PGA Club Pro Championship.

Pinehurst #2

• The Pinehurst Resort masterpiece has hosted the US Open, the US Women's Open Championship in 2014, and the Ryder Cup in 1951. This course is emblematic for its complicated, mostly convex and undulating greens, recognized as the most complex in the world. To the point that only a small portion of its surface contains the approaches, while in the rest the ball will run until it leaves the green. Due to this particularity, it requires great handling of "approach and putt" and local caddies are so important.
