Shot making key to successful play at Minnesott club
Minnesott Golf and Country Club sits along the Neuse River in Pamlico County as the county’s only public course. Open since 1968, the undulating fairways and bermuda greens unfold over six thousand four hundred yards from back tees. A complete shotmaking approach is required for success on this challenging tract.

No. 9 at Minnesott Shaped by Wind and Water Hazards
The Minnesott course features a scenic but challenging ninth hole guarding the lake with a large green and wind from the river. Left-to-right fairways aid average golfers, while No. 9 greens demand precise tee shots and quick, uphill putts if the ball lands above the hole. Minnesott offers three fee levels, weekday and weekend rates, and walking options with tee times on weekends. Next week's Sun Journal golf tour will visit the Shoreline course at Fairfield Harbour.
