Golfing heritage
Founded in 1895, Pinehurst has grown into one of the largest and most acclaimed golf resorts in all of America. After the arrival of Donald Ross in the early 20th century, this sleepy resort in sandy pinewoods of North Carolina took its first steps to becoming the golfing mecca it is today, home to 11 courses.

The crown jewel of Pinehurst is course No. 2, Ross’s enduring masterpiece. Famous for its crowned greens and strategic demands, it has staged multiple U.S. Opens and remains one of the world’s finest tests of championship golf in the world. To walk No. 2 is to encounter the same challenges faced by legends, where precision, imagination, and nerve are rewarded in equal measure.

But Pinehurst has also embraced the modern era. The newest addition, Pinehurst No. 10 by Tom Doak, offers a rare and creative golfing experience that manages to strike a contrast to the rest of the resort’s layouts, while tied by the same sandy soil and whispering pines.

For a lighter touch, The Cradle – a nine-hole short course by Gil Hanse – provides a relaxed counterpoint, perfect for an afternoon warm-up, a late-evening loop, or a casual match with friends.

And just steps away, there’s Pinehurst’s iconic putting course, which has become an evening hub: a defined 18-hole layout with drinks holders at each tee marker. With a drink in hand and laughter in the air, it’s golf at its most fun and communal.

Dining at Pinehurst is just as varied as the golf. From the Southern elegance of the Carolina Dining Room to the lively energy of The Deuce overlooking the 18th green of No. 2, each venue offers something unique.

Enjoy craft cocktails at The North & South Bar, wood-fired fare at Villaggio Ristorante, or hearty post-round dishes at PL8TE.

With fourteen restaurants and bars across the resort, every meal becomes an experience: whether it’s a celebratory steak, a casual burger, or an indulgent dessert to end the night.
