Haystack Golf Course
About Haystack Golf Course
Haystack Golf Course in Wilmington sits on gently rolling terrain and was designed by architect Desmond Muirhead in 1972. Unlike many mountain courses, the layout avoids blind shots and side-hill lies, pairing manicured fairways with challenging greens and wide mountain views. Four sets of tees allow golfers of varying abilities to choose a length that suits their game.
The club includes a pro shop, a practice range and a putting green, with instruction available from PGA Professionals.
