Best in the triangle area, great shape this time of year. Very long! 3/1/2009

Great course, great shape, great staff. Great greens. Well kept. Reference - Under 7 hcp - Black, 12 - gold, use blue for everyone else. Plays looong even from gold (6800+). What I've notice the most is the greens are not goofy like so many courses. Makes putting a lot better. Best in the triangle area, so far. more

affordable. bad greens. 7/25/2008

price is affordable, very good if you are a unc student or employee. the greens are not very good though. they are dry, bumpy, slow, and not well maintained. there are plenty of unfixed ballmarks, not to mention lots of aeration marks which will screw up the line of your putts. more

if you adore golf, play Finley 4/3/2007

I'm a senior and to play Finley, i pay $30 to walk, which is fantastic, and i wouldn't think of going anywhere else... The course is too fantastic for any words that i can come up with, impecable fairways, great - filled bunkers, tee boxes could use some work in areas, greens that are always well maintained, and the staff, and weather, are allways VERY friendly and will give you an experiance you will always remember. If you live in the triangle and haven't played Finley, you have NO idea what you're missing!!! COME PLAY UNC FINLEY!!! Pros: fairways, greens, bunkers, staff, and just about everything else Cons: SOME tee boxes could use better upkeep, but it doesn't matter all that much more

Best golf course in the triangle! 3/9/2006

If you have not played UNC Finley, and you appreciate excellent golf I recommend playing here. Typical Fazio design, wide fairways that are groomed perfectly, large rolling greens that are as quick as lightning, but true. I Love finley! more

Great course 7/14/2003

I moved down to NC more than 2 years ago and have played countless courses here in the Triangle and Pinehurst area and continue to go back to Finley over and over again. This course is in great shape, it's fun and it's challenging. Although Finley has a nice price tag on the green fees, it's by far my favorite course to play down here and would recommend anyone and everyone who enjoys hitting the links to play Finley. more

Awesome Course 7/13/2003

I have played golf all over the state and it is great to know that one of our best courses is right here in Chapel Hill. Finely has the feel of Augusta. No homes, just beautiful looking fairways and greens decorated with natural flowers. Pros: Condition, Greens, Fairways more

finley national 8/29/2002

Finley is one of the top courses in the state of North Carolina. it provides a challenging layout and is a fair course for beginners and a challenge to advanced players. The water hazards add to a beautiful layout. i would like to see the 18 hole become more of a signature hole with water, fountain, etc. Pros: excellent greens, friendly staff, challenging Cons: not crowded more

Finley is probably at the top of its game right now for a course that is still relatively maturing. The Greens Keeper is doing an outstanding job and should be given a raise for his work. Pros: easy access, hospitality, well-groomed more

Blue Green Heaven 8/9/2002

I played Finley for the first time a few months ago, and truly loved the experience. The course was recently redesigned by the same group who worked on Augusta, and the attention to aesthetics is tremendous. It is easily the most picturesque course in the Durham/Chapel Hill area. The price is comparable to others i've seen across the state (maybe a little on the higher side for public courses) and it cal play more difficult than others. But when the weather is beautiful, and one's game is on, its a great place to be. Pros: picturesque more

  • In Short
    In recent years, Finley has become a popular tract. The original course, designed by George Cobb, wasn't built to accommodate the nearly 50,000 rounds being played there...
