Closing course

I hate that this course is closing. A company bought all the land, planning to build 620 homes on the golf course.

It's been fun.

So long, Wilmar. Have enjoyed playing you over the years, going back to playing high school golf matches in the 60's when you were only a 9 hole course. You will be greatly missed.

Nice course, too bad it is closing 12/31/2021. It is a crime to plow it under and put squat boxes in its place - for shame !!

Hate to see this one close

This course is closing right before Christmas because it has been sold to developers so go play it before it's gone! The course is short but tricky, the greens are fast and immaculate, the price is great and he grill has excellent food. This course will be greatly missed!

Good-Bye Old Friend

The first course I played which cemented my fascination with the game…. that was 1982, I was 10. I’m glad I got to experience one last time the smallish greens, great array of Par 3’s and short par 4’s.
Good Bye Old Friend.

Goodbye old friend

This old course closes on January 1st. A local farmer decided to build this course years ago and it has provided much enjoyment to our region ever since. With the rapid growth of Raleigh, older family owned courses are being bought for more housing developments. Had good memories here with friends and my deceased father. Goodbye old friend.

Great little golf course!

This place has so much potential, too bad it’s being closed down. I’ve only played once but wish had played more. Couple of places needed fixing up put overall good shape and I really enjoyed the layout.
