Dogwood Valley Golf Course, Forest City, NC

I played this course with my wife today. I had heard some negative things about this course and decided to play it myself to see if they were true. I was pleasantly surprised. We were greeted by the owner when we walked in and he was very pleasant and happy to have our business. The course has 4 sets of tees with the back tees being a little over 3,000 yards and the red tees around 2,000. My wife felt the women's tees were a little too close. The fairways were pretty open so gripping and ripping is very doable. The fairways were pretty hilly giving you a lot of blind second shots. Its worth driving up and looking at your second shot before you swing away. The signage was good and there were 200, 150, 125, and 100 yrd markers which was a nice touch. There is no water on the course and no sand traps with the exception of one on the fairway of a Par 5. It looks like the owner has let the sand traps grow in. Overall we both enjoyed the course and thought the price of $12 w/cart was a very good price for 9 holes. We would encourage others to give it a look.
