In Short
In recent years, Finley has become a popular tract. The original course, designed by George Cobb, wasn't built to accommodate the nearly 50,000 rounds being played there annually. Thanks to Tom Fazio's redesign, holes 12 through 18 present some incredible challenges. The course includes ponds and lakes, as well as rolling mounds and strategically placed bunkers that make Finley not only look different, but play different.

Great course, great shape, great staff. Great greens. Well kept. Reference - Under 7 hcp - Black, 12 - gold, use blue for everyone else. Plays looong even from gold (6800+). What I've notice the most is the greens are not goofy like so many courses. Makes putting a lot better. Best in the triangle area, so far.

price is affordable, very good if you are a unc student or employee. the greens are not very good though. they are dry, bumpy, slow, and not well maintained. there are plenty of unfixed ballmarks, not to mention lots of aeration marks which will screw up the line of your putts.

I'm a senior and to play Finley, i pay $30 to walk, which is fantastic, and i wouldn't think of going anywhere else... The course is too fantastic for any words that i can come up with, impecable fairways, great - filled bunkers, tee boxes could use some work in areas, greens that are always well maintained, and the staff, and weather, are allways VERY friendly and will give you an experiance you will always remember. If you live in the triangle and haven't played Finley, you have NO idea what you're missing!!! COME PLAY UNC FINLEY!!!
