The Carolina Lakes Golf Course opened for play in 2006. The course was designed by Timothy O. Freeland.
Carved between the Catawba River, tall pines, maples, and oak trees, Carolina Lakes Golf Club is an upscale daily fee facility. With natural streams and several ponds, Carolina Lakes Golf Club is a challenging but fair 7,140 yard, par 72 championship golf course. Five sets of tees allow golfers of all ages and abilities to enjoy the championship layout. The course hsa a sixth or family tee setting the course up as a par 55 course, with 17 par 3’s and one par 4, sort of a course inside a course. The course has elevation changes, which are not only part of the beauty of the course, but also add to the challenge. Well placed bunkers and water hazards require players to use every shot in their bag.
