Pinehurst Resort & Country Club: The Cradle
'Golf should be a pleasure'

The latest addition to the Pinehurst arsenal is one designed to not only respect your limited time, but also make sure you have plenty of fun while doing it. Designed by Gil Hanse, this nine-hole short course is just steps from the Pinehurst clubhouse. The Cradle even features a sweet deal: Those under 17 play for free when accompanied by a paying adult. The course is designed to make golf more approachable. You won’t need much more than a wedge to enjoy the course, as no hole is longer than 127 yards.
