Country Club of North Carolina - Cardinal Course
The Cardinal Course at the Country Club of North Carolina was designed by Willard Byrd and Robert Trent Jones Sr., and originally opened as a third nine in 1970. It was completed with the final nine in 1981. Including "hybrid" tees, both courses offer 10 sets of USGA rated tees, allowing for play from almost any preferred yardage. The Cardinal showcases the harmonious integration of its 18 holes with the surrounding terrain. The course is characterized by its gently rolling fairways, mature pine trees, and strategically placed bunkers that test golfers' skills and strategic thinking. Each hole offers a unique experience, with varying lengths, angles, and hazards, ensuring a rewarding game for both novice and seasoned golfers. The outgoing nine of the Cardinal Course meanders through a serene landscape, incorporating natural water features and undulating greens that demand precision and accuracy. The incoming nine presents a more challenging aspect, with thoughtful design elements that require golfers to navigate intricate doglegs and manage elevation changes skillfully. The timeless charm of the Cardinal Course is complemented by the unparalleled Southern hospitality and top-tier amenities that the Country Club of North Carolina is known for.
