Southern Pines Golf Club
Now owned and operated by the same group that runs Pine Needles and Mid Pines, Southern Pines Golf Club is a historic gem revered by golf enthusiasts for its timeless design and natural beauty. Originally designed by the legendary Donald Ross in 1906, the course underwent a recent restoration led by renowned architect Kyle Franz, breathing new life into this classic layout.
Southern Pines GC offers 18 of perhaps the most rewarding golf holes in the Sandhills region. A true shot-maker’s golf course, Southern Pines provides players with options. At 6,500 yards, this extraordinary course challenges every level of play through a variety of shots from the tee and even more challenges into the greens.
Franz's restoration project honored Ross's original vision while enhancing the course's playability and strategic elements. Working closely with historical documents and aerial photographs, Franz meticulously restored the course's characteristic features, including its distinctive bunkering and greens complexes. By reclaiming lost hole locations and reintroducing strategic angles, Franz rejuvenated the layout, ensuring a challenging yet enjoyable experience for golfers of all skill levels.
The restoration also focused on enhancing the course's aesthetic appeal and environmental sustainability. Native grasses were reintroduced throughout the property, restoring the natural character of the landscape and promoting biodiversity. Additionally, the course's irrigation system was modernized to improve water efficiency and minimize environmental impact.
Today, Southern Pines Golf Club stands as a testament to both its rich heritage and its commitment to excellence in golf course design and maintenance. Beyond the golf course, Southern Pines Golf Club offers a welcoming clubhouse and a range of amenities, including a pro shop, practice facilities, and dining options. Whether enjoying a round of golf with friends or participating in a tournament or event, visitors to Southern Pines Golf Club are sure to experience the timeless allure of this historic gem.
