PGA Tour Quality
Opened in 2005, the Walnut Cove Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course is the only championship golf course to have debuted with a PGA Tour event. The course’s front nine holes wind across open fields of former farmlands, playing across soft ridges and featuring bunkers that create multiple risk and reward opportunities.
The heart of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove is the Club Village, which includes the Golf House, the Tavern and neighborhood townhomes. Designed to resemble a traditional European town hall, the Club Village features the 12,000-sf Tavern, which offers fine and casual dining in an elegant setting. Members can choose from the grand dining hall for dinner celebrations and a pub for casual lunches.
Stay Fit & Healthy
The terrace at the Tavern is popular for barbecues and live music. The 18,000-sf wellness center is state-of-the-art, while a heated indoor pool and Junior Olympic outdoor swimming pool are available for swimming laps or water fitness classes, after which members unwind in the outdoor hot tub.
