The Best US Golf Courses

To determine the best golf courses around the USA, you can go to the pros who yearly compile information and pick their favorites. Some of the lists are compiled based on subjective matter and some lists are a little more varied, with input from outside sources. But no matter where you look, everyone has some slightly different opinions.

Most people would agree that the best golf course is based somewhat on personal likes and or dislikes, and to an even larger extent, the type of golf game you play. But no matter your style or preferences, there are a few courses that always seem to find a place on every list.

Pine Valley Golf Course is a private course located at the Pine Valley Golf Club in Clementon, New Jersey. This course was designed with challenging greens and tees, set up as islands, which make for an intimidating golf outing any day. If you prefer a course located in one of the United States' dream golf locations, perhaps Pinehurst Course #2 is your best course. Located at the Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, North Carolina, this course doesn’t necessarily have a signature hole. However, the greens on any hole will challenge even the best golfers.

Perhaps you prefer a course with awe inspiring views of the pacific. Pebble Beach, California offers several such courses to choose from. They are the Pebble Beach Course, Cypress Golf Course and Spyglass Hill Course. Each offers those spectacular views while offering unique challenges.
