The Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Aberdeen Area has a storied legacy of golf unlike any other place in the country.

Here, you’ll find North Carolina’s best golf courses, world-class dining and shopping, outdoor adventures, equestrian facilities, and more. But it’s not just an ideal family vacation destination. With a wide variety of hotels, resort-style accommodations and meeting spaces, it’s also an ideal location for corporate events and group golf outings.
From a burgeoning dining scene, to eclectic shopping, family-friendly activities, and outdoor escapes around every bend, our paradise in the pines remains true to the roots planted over a century ago. Come explore cordial adventure. See the top things to do in Pinehurst, NC and the surrounding area.
