Type: Public
Rates: Weekday $40-$50, Weekend $40-$55
Practice Area: The practice facility at Edgewater has 40 tee stations available and 6 target greens to take dead aim at. In addition to working on your full swing you can master your short game at the pitching and chipping area. The short game area has two bunkers, pitching tee, and target green.
Description: This new course just opened in September 2008. Edgewater Golf Club is an 18-hole championship golf course carved out of the rolling terrain and majestic pines of the Carolina country. It features A1/A4 Bent grass greens (similar to Augusta National's purely A1 Bent grass greens) and Bermuda fairways, rough, and tees.

B-Man's Take: Played this for the first time in July '09 and was very impressed. All 18 greens were immaculate. It's a young course and hasn't gotten a lot of play yet so the greens haven't been marked up. They are the best I've played around Charlotte. The downside to the course's age is that the front 9 fairways have not grown in yet and many have bare dirt spots where you almost have to lift and place your ball. The back 9 is in great shape. My favorite hole is the short 429yd par 5 #17 -- my first two rounds I shot eagle-birdie on this hole! My hell hole was the seemingly benign 386-yd par 4 3rd hole. This dogleg right has a tall tree guarding the turn and then a lake that curls around the green -- it bit me twice my first 2 rounds. The course is a bit of a haul from Charlotte. Make sure you get directions from their web site since the course doesn't show up yet in most internet mapping services.

- 9/16/09 - Heads up that they are aerifying the greens on 9/21 and 9/22. I should also note they have a unique tournament coming up in October. From the course, "Superindendent Matthew Bunch has declared this Halloween his day of revenge and no golfer is safe! Flagsticks will be tucked in unthinkable locations, and there is no telling where the tee boxes will be set up. The format for the event will be a 4-player scramble (captain's choice). The event will be held on Sunday October 31st. The entry fee will be $50 per player and include green and cart fees, practice balls, food after the round, and awards." Sounds like fun. Call the course pro shop to sign up.
