I like to play Finley, but generally it is a little high price, and very busy. I got a discount rate and will often choose this course when I get a discount. Twilight rates start late in the day - 4pm, which is the same even in the winter! The course is in decent condition, and a better layout in my opinion than Duke (which is overpriced for the area), and NC State (Lonnie Poole is almost unplayable for normal golfers due to excessive length). No tricky shots - what you see is what you get. Greens had been aerated a week before (thus the discount). Very walkable, but unfortunately you have to pay for the cart Friday-Sunday before 1.30pm so I hardly ever play here at weekends even though it is only a couple of miles from my house.
Overall I would recommend Finley course.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing, Ranks with the best in this price level
