Letdown, Jun 04, 2005

reviewer: Don Jhoe from Richlands, nc

When I pay $75 to play, I expect the best. What you get at Porter's Neck is mediocre at best. (Layout, greens, pace of play) If you're in the area, drive 30 minutes north and play North Shore CC, at Snead's Ferry. Better course, and nearly half the price.

Excellent design - miserable greens, Feb 24, 2004

reviewer: Tom Green from Greensboro, NC

This is one of the best course designs on the east coast. A variety of shotmaking skills are required and skill levels required depend on the tees used. Number 9 is a magnificent hole. Unfortunately, the greens are 30 to 50% Poa, and putting is an adventure. With upgraded greens, the course would get 4.5 stars.

We are new members and we are loving this course. It is impeccably maintained and the course is challenging yet not too difficult that scores can't be made. I am happy to be a new member and can't wait for the fairways to dry out a bit so we can get some additional roll.

Tight, beautiful fairways. Small demanding green that role true. By mid to late summer, greens are at least 10 on the stemp meter.

"Great, Convenient Value"
I've played this course a couple of times while visitting and enjoyed it both. The price was great for the quality and difficulty and the staff very friendly. I'm a 18 handi-capper and it fit my game well, challenging, but fair.
