Longleaf Country Club
Longleaf is located between Pinehurst and Southern Pines on the site of former horse racing track, and the course actually weaves its way through remnants of the original fence around the track. The 18 hole course is on the easy end of the scale as far as Pinehurst Area courses go. Pro Tees - 6,600 yards (70.9/124). Men's Tees - 5,400 yards (65.3/112). I'm a very average golfer and I played from the Pro Tees - and it actually kept a few of the fairway bunkers out of my reach! The front and back are totally different, with the front being pretty flat as it weaves through the old race track; and the back is very hilly. Both are really picturesque. The best part was the price - $35 for 18 holes including cart after 2 p.m. It's not much more during the week, and I think only about $50 on the weekends. The course was in great shape, with very soft greens. Not crowded at all. Longleaf is a residential community with a lot of different housing options, including condos and townhouses right on the course starting out in the high $100k's to low $200k's. There's also a good selection of other housing options. The club itself is a real bargain to join, and features a nice pool, tennis courts and a croquet court. Longleaf has a very active croquet community. Finally, it is in an ideal location right along beautiful Midland Road, which connects Pinehurst and Southern Pines. Longleaf is just 2 or 3 minutes to either town, where you'll find great restaurants and cultural things to do, not to mention great shopping. Longleaf is also less than 5 minutes from the Hospital and Sandhills Community College. All in all - a perfect place for a permanent residence or even an affordable second home.
