Country Club of Whispering Pines – River Course
The River Course (formerly the West) will remind you of the courses in the foothills of North Carolina. Though it plays much shorter 6,521 from the back tees to 4,653 to the senior ladies tees, the River Course demands more accuracy than distance. “Shot making” skills are necessary to navigate the terrain.
With the elevation changes, towering oak trees that line the fairways and the newly renovated (September 2021) Champion Bermuda greens and thicker rough make every tee shot a premium.
Tranquil lakes and streams meander through most of the back nine. The legendary Ellis Maples, a Donald Ross prodigy, designed both courses with the ability and talent to create multiple themes on one property.
