Donald Ross' crown jewel — host of 3 US Opens, the US Women's Open, and the 2024 US Open. The restored wiregrass-and-sand natural areas and infamous domed greens make this the ultimate test. A bucket-list course, period.
Redesigned by Gil Hanse (architect of the 2016 Olympic course). Wide fairways funnel into demanding green complexes. Many locals consider it the best playing experience at the resort — all the challenge, less pressure than No. 2.
Tom Fazio's tribute to the great courses of the Sandhills. Designed to celebrate Pinehurst's 100th anniversary. Rolling terrain, strategic bunkers, and pristine conditioning make it a top-3 resort course.
Donald Ross gem just minutes from the resort. Recently restored to its original 1921 design — a masterclass in strategic golf architecture. Intimate setting with an inn that feels like stepping back in time.
Another Donald Ross treasure and host of three US Women's Opens. The longleaf pines frame every hole beautifully. Excellent lodging packages make it a strong alternative base for your Pinehurst trip.
Pinehurst No. 2 has hosted the US Open in 1999 (Payne Stewart's iconic fist pump on 18), 2005 (Michael Campbell), 2014 (Martin Kaymer's wire-to-wire), and 2024 — making it one of only a handful of venues to host multiple US Opens. Walking the same fairways as champions adds a layer of gravity to every shot. The Payne Stewart statue outside the clubhouse is a pilgrimage for golf fans.
Two prime windows: April through June when the Sandhills are lush and temperatures are ideal, and September through October when fall colors arrive and rates drop slightly. Summer is playable but humid. Winter offers surprising value.
