LINCOLN, Nebraska – Landscapes Unlimited is nearing completion of a major renovation of the championship golf course at Carolina Country Club, North Carolina’s oldest private club located in Raleigh.
Scheduled to finish in June, the project centers on 18 holes of tee, bunker and green remodeling, fairway grassing, and irrigation and drainage replacement. In addition to delighting members and their guests, the enhancements benefit the course’s maintenance, reducing resources while consistently presenting top-tier course conditions.
Course architect Greg Muirhead with Rees Jones, Inc., Paul Roche with Golf Water and Dennis Hurley with Turf Drainage Company of America played heavy roles in the project.
“The team has done a wonderful job improving sustainability and modernizing the golf course while preserving the character of the 1930s A.W. Tillinghast re-design,” said Jack Slaughter, General Manager / COO of Carolina Country Club.
“The ease of working with Landscapes Unlimited and others are second to none,” said Kyle Johnson, Director of Grounds of Carolina Country Club. “Unveiling an exceptional golf course that preserves traditional and adds contemporary infrastructure and features will make members prouder than ever to call Carolina Country Club home.”
“We appreciate the continued trust Carolina Country Club puts into our company to deliver excellence on time and on budget,” said Dana Grode, Vice President of Landscapes Unlimited. “Seeing ear-to-ear grins from members gives us incredible enjoyment, and makes the blood, sweat and tears well worth it.”
Established in 1910, Carolina Country Club had remained at its original location since inception. The golf course is consistently ranked among the nation’s best by Golf Digest, GOLF Magazine and Golfweek, and the club is designated a five-star Platinum Club by industry peers and a distinguished Elite Club of the World by Boardroom Magazine. In addition to golf, members enjoy first-class tennis, wellness, aquatics and dining facilities complemented by a full slate of adult and youth social and recreation activities.
