The homey atmosphere is derived from the owners' receptive attitudes as well as the ambiance of the pine-paneled lounge and snack bar, which retain the feel of the lodge living room and kitchen. Steve and Bill Jernigan built the course in the early '90s using a Jerry Turner and Associates design. The Jernigans believe in their golfing concepts and are interested in the development of packages to bring golfers to the Outer Banks for the fun aspects of the game in a comfortable Southern-style atmosphere. Bermudagrass greens and fairways grace the flat Goose Creek course, which is not a typical beach layout. The tree-lined fairways are relatively tight on the front nine and more undulating and open on the back.
Greens are relatively small.
The 13th is considered the signature hole. A few water hazards exist and could come into play on five holes. After playing Goose Creek, you should feel confident and upbeat about your game. It's a course for high-handicappers as well as seasoned golfers. A driving range and practice green are available.
