Cape Fear National at Brunswick Forest
Cape Fear National is located in Brunswick Forest, a 4,500 acre master planned community located just 5.7 miles from historic Wilmington, NC off Highway 17. This 18 hole championship course by up-and-coming architect Tim Cate stretches out 7217 yards and features tees, fairways and primary rough grassed with Tifway 419 Bermuda. In addition to three giant waste bunkers that run tee to green, the course has more than 50 sculpted bunker complexes, and the bunkers are filled with brilliant white SP 55 sand, the same premium blend used by Augusta National. Heat tolerant A-1/A-4 bent grass covers the greens which average 8500 square feet. Cate moved more than 1.5 million cubic yards of dirt to sculpt the coastal Carolinas' newest course. He created impressive elevated tee boxes, dramatic berms and meandering fairways among the trees. The 7,000 square foot clubhouse offers a full-service golf shop, men's and women's locker rooms and a Grille and Bar with indoor/outdoor dining. The practice facilities include a driving range with target greens, an expansive putting green and a variety of short game practice areas.
