Featured 'DESTINATION OF THE MONTH'
PINEHURST, NORTH CAROLINA

Following the recent Masters Tournament, this year's U.S. championship golf season is now officially underway. But don't worry if your scorecard isn't quite ready for the PGA Tour! Golf enthusiasts who prefer to play simply "for the love of the game" can follow in the footsteps of golf legends and immerse themselves throughout the year in an unparalleled golf and vacation experience at Pinehurst Resort - named World's Best Golf Resort 2007 by T+L Golf Magazine, and host site for the 2008 U.S. Amateur Championship.

This renowned golf resort has witnessed countless moments in golf history, from Ben Hogan’s first professional win to Payne Stewart’s dramatic 18th-hole putt that led to his last U.S. Open victory.  Bobby Jones so revered Pinehurst, he connected it to golf’s homeland as the “St. Andrews of United States Golf”. With eight world-class golf courses and The Pinehurst Golf Academy, this historic resort offers countless opportunities for you to share in one of America’s most honored traditions as you work to improve your own personal game in a place where golfers play for the love of the game, and traditions are revered above all else.

Pinehurst has a great deal to offer the non-golfer as well. Let your worries melt away with a visit to The Spa at Pinehurst, an oasis into a world of luxury and the only Mobil Four Star-rated spa in a three-state region. Or spend a quiet afternoon waterside at The Pinehurst Beach Club, offering boating, fishing, and swimming in its 200-acre private freshwater lake. 

And in the evenings, step back in time and discover the elegance and Old World charm that defines the luxury accommodations at the Four-Diamond Carolina.  With stately columns, attendants to take care of your every need, and an entrance made for drama, this National Historic Landmark has everything a first-class traveler could need.

Take time this summer to discover all this and more at Pinehurst - the way the South was meant to be.
