Looking for variety? We’ve got it!
The West Course opened in 1972 offers the
tranquil beauty of ancient hardwoods as
Ellis Maples again utilizes the natural
contours to test the metal of even the
steadiest player. The inward nine is known
for its tranquil beauty, natural setting and
for the protection provided by Little River
and Thagard Lake on 6 of the final 9 holes.
Length is not as important on the West
Course, however a premium is placed on
strategic accuracy and shot placement. Well
placed shots are rewarded with generous
greens and birdie opportunities. Often
referred to as “the thinking man’s golf
course” you are constantly playing two shots
ahead in order navigate this Ellis Maples
masterpiece.

stated in the Pinehurst Magazine when Lee
Pace wrote, “ History will certainly
determine Ellis Maples' place, and he will
certainly be standing shoulder to shoulder
with Donald Ross, Allistar Mackenzie, A.W.
Tillinghast and the Legends of Golf Course
Design” And the Country Club of Whispering
Pines is truly one of his best.
The Country
