Longleaf Golf & CC
Before Dan Maples transformed it into one of the area’s most popular and playable courses, the site had been a training facility for some of America’s top thoroughbreds. As a tribute, Dan incorporated into this quality design, elements from the original estate, including part of the old training track. The course features both a subtly rolling Scottish style front nine and dramatic elevation changes on the wooded back nine. Golf Digest deemed Longleaf as “the most playable course in the Pinehurst area”.

The front nine is straight forward and allows for an errant shot, or two. The back nine tightens up a little and has some elevation change, a difficult double dog leg par 4, and three par 3’s. Longleaf is a must-play for beginner golfers and those that may be a little rusty.
