Golf Courses
World Woods Golf Club has what Tom Fazio has been quoted as saying is his "best work". The Pine Barrens and Rolling Oaks golf courses couldn't be more different for being on the same piece of land. The Pine Barrens is ranked #26 by GolfWeek "Americas Best Modern Course". It is a visually awesome belnd of native terrain and course design. This Course has been compared with Pine Valley located in New Jersey which is the consensus #1 course in the world. The Rolling Oaks provides you with an entirely different experience. With the rolling fairways and undulated greens this course makes you feel like you are in the middle of North Carolina while the many azelea bushes present in the landscaping have some thinking of the famed Augusta National. Both of these courses are a great test of golf that offer you a challenge while you take in the natural beauty that Tom Fazio has designed.
