The Best Club for "No Nonsense" Golf in North Carolina. The Best Value for Seniors in the Mid Atlantic Region. The Ideal Course for Beginners. No fuss. No muss.

Reachable Par 5's. 20 minutes from Raleigh City Center. One of my favorite tracks and well liked by the Senior PGA pros too.

Welp. I was really hoping I would like this course and range for my golf endeavor. However, the…read moreyoung worker on the golf cart patrolling the premises summoned me to his cart stating "next time you need to get/ buy the balls from the clubhouse". Well kid, where do you I got those two golf bags full of balls from? Told him I did go to the club house, as it is my first time here, and paid $7 dollars for 45 balls in a bag. At this point, I expect some sort of embarrassment or regret in his face of accusing a woman of collecting golf balls from the range and hit? But no, with straight face he said "then your fine" Perhaps I look different? I really don't know what to think of the reason why he came up to me and told me what he did.

I played at the Country Club of Johnston County for the first time on Saturday and was pleased…read more It is a semi-private course so, public tee times are available. It was a great value at $35 on a Saturday! The course was in good shape. It is pretty flat with wide, forgiving fairways. The greens were in nice shape and fairly quick. I was most impressed by the friendliness of the staff and fellow golfers. There were three foursomes stacked up on the first tee at 0930 Saturday. The starter allowed us to start on the back nine instead of waiting. As we were a twosome, we caught up to a couple of groups ahead of us. Both allowed us to play through without making us feel rushed. This has not been my experience at other golf courses in the area. We'll definitely be back.

The layout is well-maintained and enjoyable to play, offering just enough challenge without being overwhelming. You can tell the grounds crew takes pride in keeping everything looking sharp. The staff here are incredibly friendly and accommodating, making you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. For the quality of the course, the pricing is very reasonable--definitely great value for a round of golf in this area. If I had one suggestion, it would be to add a grill or some kind of food service. And it would be nice to enjoy a cold adult beverage after a round. Those additions would really round out the experience. That said, it's still a fantastic course, and I highly recommend it. I'll be back!

Fun for all ages…read more I've been coming to Drive Shack for years. It is a great place for golf enthusiasts but the computerized games, other cool games, and vibe here can entertain anybody. Venue: multiple floors and has bays - bays either include high top tables or lounge sofa with table. Huge complex with full bar and other entertainment items. Basic Golf clubs are provided for each bay. Food: well, I can't say they have good food here but don't really come here for food. Although it would be awesome if they can improve their food menu and quality. Tried their nachos (not in menu anymore), sliders, pretzel sticks, fries. Very mediocre at best. Beers on tap change different season. I thought espresso martini was pretty decent. Service: it's mostly great but once in a while there is a "miss" on service: long wait, forgetting order etc usually on busy weekend. But most staffs are very friendly and eager to help. Price: I hate the bay price here. It's very pricey especially on the weekend for 2 people. 2 hour play is $100- if you order food and drinks, it adds on quick. and there is a tip slot counting the bay price. And yet I return like a sucker.

This establishment is a joke! I brought my family here…read morewhile they were visiting from out of town and from the moment we sat down, it felt like we were being singled out. Our server, Claira, checked our IDs when we ordered food and drinks - which is fine - but after we had already been waiting about 20mins a manager named Jackson came over and asked to check our IDs once again. He proceeded to bend them and closely inspect them over and over before walking away without saying a single word! He came back shortly after and said we could not be served because 2 of the IDs seemed "fake". For context, we are all well over 21. I'm 25, and my cousin is 24. There was no real explanation given beyond his personal judgment. We even suggested scanning the IDs to verify them, but they don't have a system in place to actually authenticate identification. So essentially, the decision was based purely on assumption. To clarify, we didn't see them go to anyone else's table to do this. Mind you, we are people of color who were just trying to have a good time. We had to leave only 40mins into the game, ruining our nights and they did nothing to make things right. We came here expecting to enjoy time with family and instead left feeling uncomfortable, profiled, and disrespected. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

They just offered. They brought him chicken fingers and french fries and these were not frozen chicken fingers. This was real breaded chicken and the tastiest fries. The staff was friendly and pleasant and we didn't feel rushed for a second. One person commented that the staff knew what you needed before you did. I don't usually gush like this but I left happy and well fed with a child that was able to hold out until well past his bed time because this place was so awesome.

Beyond the fact that the place was beautiful, food was excellent and the dessert was out of this world, AND my drink glass was never empty, the people working the event that night went above and beyond their duties to ensure every person at our dinner was satisfied. I could not have asked for more and would recommend Bentwinds to anyone who has a need for an event space!
