Harbour Pointe Golf Club
In 2019, golf course closures in the U.S. reached a record high. Then came the 2020 pandemic and golf experienced a massive resurgence in popularity. Why? According to “PrimePutt,” golf’s outdoor environment made it the perfect activity to observe social distancing while still engaging with others.
Fortunately, the resurgence in popularity hasn’t waned post-pandemic and a new generation of players has been cultivated to provide much- needed continuity for local courses. In 2023, golf course closures in the U.S. were at a 20-year low.

Harbour Pointe Golf Club is an 18-hole par 72, 6,577 yard championship golf course. The course winds golfers through a unique natural setting of picturesque coastal marsh while providing a fun yet challenging layout keeping both experienced and novice golfers returning.
The first four holes are a good warm-up for No. 5, a par 4 with a marsh down the right side. The back-nine provides a respite until No. 14. Playing 446 yards with a lake all down the right, it requires a perfectly placed tee shot for a chance to reach the green in two. The green on the 17th hole has a panoramic view of Broad Creek and the Neuse River.
Harbour Pointe also offers a full-service grass practice range, along with a putting green and short-game practice area. It’s one of the best around.
The course is also home to The Pointe Restaurant which has been newly renovated and features a full-service bar and restaurant open to the public.
