Great Winter Deal at Tobacco Road & Southern Pines

[Michael Whitaker]

A great deal is being offered at Tobacco Road & Southern Pines for the winter:

Play Tobacco Road and Southern Pines CC with one night at the Comfort Inn of Pinehurst for only $99 per person.

For those that live within driving distance could take advantage of this offer by watching the weather forecast and catching a couple of nice days.

What a deal is right.  I was scheduled to do just this yesterday, but cancelled with my bags packed on Sunday afternoon due to so much rain coming through that morning.

Planning to go hopefully in a couple of weeks.

I stay at that Comfort Inn a several years ago and it was quite acceptable. And very convenient to the Road.

[Ronald Montesano]

Sounds perfect...Southern Pines day one, tobacco road twice on day two, southern pines on day three, $198 easy.

What kind of weather could be expected in mid February?

[Jaeger Kovich]

Tobacco Road can book rounds at Mid Pines and Pine Needles as well as some of the Pinehurst courses... You could play 36 on any combination of these, although TR is about 30 min from the rest.

What kind of weather could be expected in mid February?

Anything. Really, I've seen it be 75 and sunny, I've seen it be 25 with flurries. It can be really odd weather, changing from day to day pretty bad at times. Being in the middle of the coast, North Carolina (the eastern part anyway) doesn't really have much as far as winters go, more like winter weeks with moderate stuff in between. Anything is possible that time of the year.


As far as the deal goes, its a great deal, TR processes a lot of rounds through its travel office so they can work out some really good deals, especially this time of the year. And I could be wrong, but I didn't think that TR could package a round at Pine Needles; of course its been 18 months since I've worked in Pinehurst and those have been some pretty dark months, so courses might be doing some real dealing these days.

The travel office will book other courses if you ask.

Last February, we played Tobacco Road and Tot Hill Farm.  With the hotel suite and breakfast, cost was under $110 per man.  Weather was in the 50s both days.  Perfect, really.

There was a cancellation policy prohibiting last-minute, weather-related no shows.  I'm not sure if it still exists.

That's like asking, "How long is a piece of string?"

Yeah, they sort of 'prevent' no-shows. You have to actually come to the course and you get a rain check to play at another time. You won't actually get your money back if you pre-book through a packager unless you cancel well in advance. Just ask the TR travel office.
