Explore the course

Play a Different Round Every Time

Taking full advantage of Governors Club’s 1,600-acre landscape, Jack Nicklaus designed each of the Club’s three 9-hole courses to embrace the property’s natural beauty and rolling terrain.

The Lakes, Foothills and Mountain courses each offer their own personality while providing an enjoyable challenge for golfers of every skill level. Together, they create one of North Carolina’s most distinctive private golf experiences.

Lakes: Holes 1-9

The flattest of the three nines is the easiest to enjoy walking the course. Fairways, nestled between lines of mature trees, offer a park-like setting. As the course name implies, strategically placed ponds and lakes add to the natural beauty of the course, and serve up challenges.

Foothills: Holes 10-18

The longest of the three courses. Multiple tee choices and wide fairways can help you tame this course.

Mountain: Holes 19-27

The shortest of the three courses, does not require tremendous length of shots, but the slopes, inclines and drop-offs bring out the golf artist in you. The majestic views will make you forget the score for a few moments and enjoy the surroundings.

“One of the nicest, natural pieces of property I have ever designed.”
– Jack Nicklaus
