Set in a gently rolling landscape, Heather Hills blends elements of a parkland style with tree-lined fairways and well-defined greens.

My Dad and I played this golf course for my 14th birthday just to get out, hit, and play something local and it was a lot of fun (a lot more fun than I expected) for $45 him and I combined. The course was not in great condition but it was absolutely fun and will be a memory forever!

This is a fun 3 and 4 par course!! Just make sure you take a coller and drinks. The 9th hole is not near the club house.

A little frosty but that’s just the time of year. For 30 bucks this is a great course. Good carts, and layout. Greens were bad but it’s 30$

We always try to stop and play 18 on our way to/from the beach. Just a fun short course. I would play it everyday if we lived by it!
Richard King
Have always enjoyed playing this little course. It’s a great place for beginners to learn and for golfers at all levels to work on their short game. It’s never too crowded and a round can be played in under 2 hours. Staff is very friendly and always show their appreciation to the patrons for playing their course.

I came to NC from Europa for my holidays and family visit and played this course 2 times. Will definitely come back this year. See you soon Update: played again july 2025. Very friendly lady at the desk, very welcoming and helpful. 20 bucks with a buggy included is a good price for this course. Here and there some dry spots on the greens but for this money I don’t mind. Thanks again
