Walk in the Footsteps of Legends
Far more than simply a golf resort, Pinehurst is where the American golf story is rooted, and where it continues to flourish. And while Payne Stewart’s famous putt that won the 1999 U.S. Open may be seared in our collective consciousness, behind it are archives of equally impressive moments from the past 100 years.

Beyond the Course
Experiencing the legendary Pinehurst courses goes beyond the iconic greens. When you step through the interactive historic hallway, you step back in time, alongside greats from Ben Hogan to Bryson DeChambeau. You’ll soon come to know Pinehurst’s friendliest face, Larry Goins, a bag drop greeter who’s made golfers feel at home for over 40 years. And when you start a day on the green at the 91st Hole and end it at The Deuce, you’ll be fueled from the first hole to the final handshake.
The Pinehurst experience is yours for the taking — so tee up, breathe out and take your swing. It starts here.
