The state’s most exclusive and expensive course isn’t in the mountains, on the coast or in Pinehurst. Not in Charlotte or Raleigh, either.
According to Country Club Magazine, it’s Old Town Club in Winston-Salem. Otherwise the Triad’s private courses are remarkably affordable and accessible compared to others across the state.
In a recent list, the magazine included only Old Town and Old North State among North Carolina’s 25 most exclusive and expensive golf clubs. Interestingly enough, they were No. 1 and No. 25.
Old Town ranked No. 1 and Old North State Club was No. 2 in TriadGolf.com’s ranking last spring of the region’s top courses by a panel of prominent members of the area golf industry.
Old Town, a Perry Maxwell design, was ranked as the most expensive, though no specific initiation fees or dues were cited. Old North State Club, a Tom Fazio design on Badin Lake, was No. 25.
