Southern Pines & Sandhills
Mid Pines
Classic Ross Sandhills
Mid Pines is the charmer. It has rhythm, walkability, sandy texture, and the kind of understated Ross architecture that makes better players smile and loud players ask why it is not longer. For architecture people, this may be the most elegant round in the Southern Pines cluster.
