Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club

We had a great time. The old time time feel to the property, great food and great golf were awesome.

Terrible. When we went to check in at Pine Needles were we reserved and they said we were moved to Mid-Pines a more rundown sister property. We know both properties and specifically wanted PN. Still l moved us. Musty smell. Heat was so bad that my wife had to sleep with her sweater on. Took 45 minutes for the staff to bring a blanket. Don’t stay there. When shared our experience at check out no so much as “I’m sorry “. Seriously avoid this experience.

Property was beautiful. Dining area accommodating..Cabins need a bit of updating...

Beware. Pine Needles may send you to their property across the street- Mid -Pines. What a dump. Roaches and run down. Terrible . Stay away.

I THOUGHT I was booked at this property, but was actually booked at Mid-Pines by Hotels.com. So, I can't give a review of Pine Needles accommodations. BUT, the golf facility and staff I met there was spectacular.

One of a kind. Like going back in time to the 70s. In a good way.

So be careful of the bait and switch; they may put you in the Mid Pines Hotel which is across the street - not in the Pine Valley Inn where the pictures are. I did notice that on the reservation it buries the fact that it is Mid Pines - but my overall record says Pine Needles. We in fact drive to Pine Needles. Mid Pines is an old hotel that we did get an updated room but is much different that what is listed. And the unfortunate part of using Hotels.com I couldn't get a refund so we were stuck. We enjoyed the golf and would recommend playing on both courses! And we loved the golf staff. But as a hotel it's just disappointing all the way around. I rarely write a negative review - but they should just do a site that says Mid Pines Hotel and cross reference each other. I could have stayed at the Marriott down the street for much less and enjoyed the golf. There was no benefit to stay at the hotel and golf.

This was a great experience in every respect EXCEPT for the noisy AC unit which made sleep almost impossible. What a shame, because we loved everything else. .

My fiancé and I stayed here on Valentine's Day. We had a room that looked out on the putting green with a nice porch. The staff was great, the food was excellent and reasonably priced, and we enjoyed the hot tub. It was also convenient to walk everywhere on the property. Great relaxing atmosphere and a fun trip. We intent to return and recommend this location highly!

So many unfortunate things happened. Firstly they couldn’t find my reservation. Then the toilet was nasty. The room smelled old and stinky and we found someone’s golf ball they left behind. Our big screen TV didn’t work and to top it off, a big huge water bug came charging out like “hey what are you doing here” the dead one stayed still! But on the great side, The staff was awesome! And the food was great. Yes we ate there before we saw the bugs! We left at 4:30 in the morning of our first night when the bug came charging!
