The Tradition Golf Club

I had a private golf lesson scheduled for 8pm. I called (his personal cell phone) that morning and left a message to verify the appointment. I did not hear back and called two additional times throughout the day with no answer. I arrived about 10 minutes early for my lesson and then called the gentleman directly and left a message at 7:55pm letting him know where I was. He never showed or returned any of my calls that day/​night. I got a call the next day asking if I was still on for that night, with no acknowledgement of all my calls and voicemails from the previous night. When I replied by voicing my frustration from the previous night he said he had left me a voicemail. However I had no missed call and no voicemail (and no history of my phone not delivering voicemails). Apparently there was a miscommunication somewhere along the way, but the whole situation was rather disappointing and frustrating (and didn’t add up). I cannot speak to the quality of the course or clubhouse.

Played the front 9. In my opinion it still may be to early to tell if this course has become any better than the years past. Which has not been great as goes for pretty much all of the Carolina Trail Courses. The fairways played really really fast for the amount of rain that we have received this winter/​spring which was surprising. It makes me think that during the summer months the grass may stay brown. The greens were recently aerated but were surprisingly in good shape for the most part. There were a few areas that were under repair. I would pay $ 30-​$ 36 for this course on the weekend but no more. At least not until it begins to green out. The range is ok not much grass to hit off of but that’s not surprising for the amount of traffic this place receives. The range balls could use an upgrade and a price reduction $ 6 for 25 – 30 balls (the balls are in bad shape).

Nice to have a golf place near the office so you can hit the range now and then during lunch. Not a «huge» golf club, but big enough and gets the job done. The staff is pretty friendly… though I haven’t played the course, I have frequented the range and the putting green a lot. Most of the time, when I play golf I am usually in the woods so I just keep practicing for the time being.
I have not seen a chipping green yet, but I haven’t looked very hard for one. By the time I get my clubs, drive up to the parking lot, and get the balls ready — I’ve got limited time to waste.
Careful turning left out of the parking lot since Mallard Creek Church Rd/​Prosperity Church Rd gets busy at times. Not to say you can’t hang out at the median, but the way people drive around there is with a purpose and not to accommodate a nice little range session at lunch.
There are a good amount of canadian geese that hang around here, but they maintain the walkways and stuff pretty good so you don’t step on any land minds.

My owner tells me this is the best golf value in the area. Nice, fair traditional (hence the name) layout without all the houses lining the fairways like most courses in the area. Good mix of holes with plenty of birdie opportunities as long as you can keep it in the fairway off the team. Greens are usually in good shape and, even in the summer, don’t get to firm. Staff is very friendly and accommodating but rangers will make sure you keep up the pace of play. Great practice facility near the clubhouse to hone your game. Restaurant has decent food and ice cold beer, especially like the Rolling Rock specials. He also told me there are some otters that frolic around in the pond near the clubhouse. Hope he takes me over there sometime.

nice greens, challenging fun course for the money. Carts have no GPS, and the score cards don’t feature a hole map (also no map at the tee of each hole) — so unless your familiar it can be challenging to navigate.
Price was reasonable, and staff was friendly and helpful! Check them out!

I often visit this place to practice to work on my game so to speak. It’s very convenient for me because it’s ONLY 2 miles away from my house.
It’s a perfect little golf course in highland creek area. They have $ 6 bucket for practice which is perfect if you want to work on your game and they also have 18 hole golf course which is perfect way to spend your weekend with you friends.
Once I came here with a friend of mine just to practice and he forgot his clubs in other car. We went to the office and come to find out, he was able to rent the clubs just for practice. They also have a cute little store if you want to buy a beverage to beat the heat.
I like going to this place because it’s very convenient, friendly folks and inexpensive :)
