Tobacco Road Golf Club

Tobacco Road Golf Club is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Sanford, North Carolina.

Tobacco Road Golf Course first opened for play in 1998. The course was designed by Mike Strantz.

Tobacco Road Golf Course is a combination of links-style and traditional style but weighted more to being links-style. The fairways are generous, some as wide as ninety-nine yards, and the greens are also big. The quote "Its bark is more intimidating than its bite" aptly describes this course that contains some blind and restricted tee shots. A staff consensus is that the course does not have a signature hole, rather it is, in essence, a "signature golf course."

If you prefer A-to-Z target golf, this isn't for you. Tobacco Road has blind shots and greens with bumps and false fronts. But if your idea of fun is courses that are a head-scratching joy to play, you won't find anything better.

Thanks to the many blind shots that start on the first tee and end with the approach to No. 18, things tend to move slowly here. Best to use the extra time to figure out the target line.

The Tobacco Road Golf Course plays to 6,554 yards and a par of 71 with a course rating of 73.2 and a slope rating of 150. Those are very big numbers for a 6,500-yard par-71 course!
