Timberlake Golf Club

Good value for the price. Greens roll true, while the layout has lots of character. Course knowledge is a must (if it's your first time coming plan ahead via your GPS app to know where to hit it and how far) or ride up into the fairway to look before hitting. Some blind shots and lots of optical illusions to make hazards look closer or farther away. The boys and I had a great time.

A great day of golf at Timberlake! It has been over 10 years since I’ve played here. I really enjoyed it. The fairways and greens are well maintained. The rough is thick! Beware of the small short bushes that line the fairway; they will eat your golf balls! Enjoyed my round!

Played here Sunday 8/16 for the 2nd time ever and was pleasantly surprised in the conditions of this course compared to a year and a half ago! Super fun course layout with some challenging (and plentiful) par 3s - The front 9 is more of a traditional southern course with tree-lined fairways, while the back 9 offers link-style open fairways for more "go for it" shots with room for error. A couple of reachable Par 5s are flanked with some tricky but BEAUTFIUL putting greens - This course probably has some of the best greens I've seen this year with all the courses struggling from the drought. Only 4 stars for two reasons - The tee boxes on some holes were basically huge ant mounds with the biggest field ants I've ever seen. They didn't bite, but they will swarm your shoes and legs so be wary. Also, I was pulling in at 8:40 for a 9:20 tee time and they had EVERY SINGLE SPRINKLER going full blast around all of their greens. I don't know if the grounds crew was late, or forgot to shut them off in a timely manner, but this led to almost every green being soggy and muddy around the edges as if it rained, even as the day progressed. Still had a great time and will DEFINITELY be back for more!

Tricky course. You need to play it a couple of times. If you avoid the (Pit)falls you find this a great place. Couple of par 5s could be reached if 2 well placed shots.

One of the best deals in Eastern North Carolina! Extremely well maintained. We are getting to the end of a very wet, hot summer. The superintendent has done well to keep the bent grass greens looking healthy. As a fair review, Number 6 green is probably the worst out there. It's in the lowest, hottest part of the course with the least air circulation. Even saying that, it's a great test of golf! Come out, have fun, but be warned. You may not go low without significant effort.
