This course is in incredible condition. Plays well and putts true. With that said, they have a sign at the turn that's states to limit your lunch to 5 minutes. We went to the bar and sat down and had lunch with our foursome. We were in there for about 45 minutes. We came out, teed up on the 10th hole and the starter came over and said we can't do that but he would find us a hole somewhere on the back 9. So, we started our back 9 on the 14th hole. This inevitably caused an even bigger back up. It took us 3 hours and 5 minutes to play The Back Nine. Had we stayed where we were on the 10th hole everything would have been fine. I completely understand having the five-minute rule for lunch but this is totally ridiculous. We got penalized for spending $100 at the golf course for our group for lunch.

However your approaches need to be sharp and accurate if you don't want to add extra strokes. The greens are the same as the practice green...smooth and true.
Another of the great benefits of playing the Pointe and it's sister course the Carolina Club is that both are excellent 365 days a year - excepting the...
Read moreI recently played your course in mid-June 2014 with my son. We were very impressed how friendly and nice the staff was while we played the course (we were treated better than most country club members are at their clubs). We really enjoyed the course - clean, well-kept, and we even had our best golf scores ever, just because of your staff and top course conditions ! Thank you very much for one of our most enjoyable golf rounds ever !!! I will definitely try to come back to the outer banks for vacation just to play here again :) Thank you very much ! Keep up the great staff and course! Perhaps we will also play the Carolina...
