Meadowlands Golf Club

Meadowlands Golf Club sits on the border of North and South Carolina, welcoming guests with natural beauty, southern hospitality, and a friendly, knowledgeable staff who always seem glad to see you. Folks who play here notice the peaceful feeling right away, with wide fairways, large TifEagle Bermuda greens, and rolling meadows bordered by mature hardwood trees, freshwater lakes, and wetlands. The layout, designed by Willard Byrd and David Johnson, first opened in 1997 and includes five sets of tees, making it good for all skill levels, whether you're a senior golfer, couple, beginner, part of a local group, or just getting warmed up for a buddy trip. The course stretches to about 7,054 yards from the Raven tees, with a par of 72, a rating of 74.8, and a slope of 136, so there's enough challenge for those who want it, especially on holes like the 432-yard 6th hole, with its rolling fairway, pond on the left, and a hidden water hazard guarding the green. Many holes are lined with meadows and wetlands, and signature holes like 3, 7, 12, and 18 are memorable for their scenery and design. The fairways are gently sloped and well marked, and there are water hazards, tight doglegs, and sloped putting surfaces that keep things interesting, without being unfair. The course stays in good shape, especially in spring and fall, and the greens hold approach shots well without being too fast or tricky. The southern-style clubhouse has an easygoing feel, with a grill and snack bar, plus covered outdoor seating where folks gather after a round. There's a pro shop with logo apparel and golf gear, plus a practice putting green and full driving range. People can join in special events, tournaments, and activities, and instructors are available for those wanting to improve with lessons, videos, and golf technique programs, which include things like School of Golf, The Golf Fix, Putting, Chipping, Bunker Play, and fitness content. The club sits less than a mile from its sister course, Farmstead Golf Links, which gives players even more ways to enjoy the area, and you're just a short drive from Calabash waterfront dining and seafood markets. Locals hold the course in high regard, and North Carolina Magazine once named it one of the "Top Ten Best New Courses." Meadowlands Golf Club offers a relaxing, scenic golf experience and aims to make golfers of all backgrounds feel welcome.
