Detailed description of Monroe Country Club
Monroe Country Club, is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Monroe, North Carolina.
The Monroe Country Club first opened for play in 1936. Nine holes designed by Donald Ross, the other nine by Tom Jackson.
The front 9 was restored in 2008 and restoration of the back nine will be finished in 2009.
The par 5's are reachable in 2 from the white tees for long ball hitters and give up many birdies. The par 3's on the other hand can be quite a challenge. Hole #2 has a severely sloped green, #9 is a good 3-iron, #11 goes over a pond and #16 can play longer than #9 since it's uphill.
The grand Clubhouse was built in 1936 and has been renovated recently. The ballroom, with fireplaces at opposite ends and a gorgeous chandelier mid-floor can accomodate 200 people.

JUST CANT BEAT IT FOR THE PRICE. THE GREENS AND TEES ARE ALL PAINTED, BUT THE GREENS STINK--NEED TO BE PUNCHED AND SANDED. RIGHT NOW DONT EXPECT TO HOLD THE GREENS AT ANY TIME , THEY ARE JUST TOO SLICK AND FAST . IF YOU CAN PUT UP WITH THIS , THE PLACE IS A BARGAIN. GROUNDS PEOPLE SEEM TO WORK HARD TO KEEP THE PLACE IN GOOD CONDITION. TRY IT , YOU LIKE IT

a very nice course at the time we played the greens were in good shape. the fairways were excellent. a very scenic course and very well cared for. you can see for yourself a lot of effort to maintain this course
