If you're a golfer, it's time you treated yourself to the wonderment of North Carolina, where the golf courses are unlike any other in the world and the weather is always conducive to a spirited round of golf. Unlike most resorts that cater only to golfers, the Pinehurst area is teeming with family-oriented activities that make it a chosen destination for families from all over the country.
Pinehurst Resort
With seven golf courses from which to choose, including Pinehurst #2---the site of more than a dozen national championships---Pinehurst Resort is at the epicenter of the sport's heritage. Dating back to 1898, Pinehurst Resort has hosted more national championships than any other venue in the nation and has been named the best golf resort in America three times by "Travel and Leisure" magazine, an unprecedented honor. Stay at this resort and you'll experience Southern hospitality, uncommonly elegant accommodations and recreational activities for the entire family.

Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club and Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club
Separated by only a row of lush pine trees, these two resorts have attracted return visitors time and again for outstanding golf and upscale amenities. Both courses, situated on more than 500 acres of North Carolina's most interesting real estate, were designed by famous golf architect Donald Ross and have earned their place as two of the nation's best courses. You can chill out in Pine Needles' casual setting, or stay at Mid Pines with its more upscale atmosphere. Either way, you enjoy modern amenities, including beautifully decorated rooms and some of the best Southern dining in the country.
