Pinehurst, North Carolina
The surrounding Sandhills area is recognized as one of the top three
golf destinations in the world. There are more than 30 area courses in the area
and Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Aberdeen Region is home to 10 of the top 20 North
Carolina Golf Courses as well as world class tennis and spa facilities,
exquisite dining options, and luxurious accommodations with list of binary options
.
The Sandhills offers the best of
small town charm and metropolitan amenities and though Golf is a way of
life, visitors and residents enjoy the arts, history, botanical gardens,
community festivals and unique village shops, all which combine to make the
Sandhills a very special place. Known for its sandy soil and gently rolling
hills, the region's mild climate makes outdoor activities a year-round
possibility. From
Stoneybrook Steeplechase and the PGA Golf Tour to the
Tour-de-Moore bicycling race, there's always something to do.
Remarkably, this small town carved from the pine
barrens of eastern North Carolina by a Boston business man has been associated
worldwide with the game of golf for nearly a century. Originally founded as a
winter resort for New Englanders, James Walker Tufts, the founder, soon
recognized the potential of the game and grew his resort into the prestigious
golfing destination it now is. Long able to attract the top names of the sport,
Pinehurst continues that tradition when the
Pinehurst resort was again selected to host the 2014 U.S. Open, its third in 15
years. The revered North Carolina resort has hosted eight USGA championships,
including the U.S. Opens in 1999 and 2005.
Although golf is the leading reason to visit the Sandhills area, the adjacent
towns of Pinehurst, Southern Pines, and Aberdeen do offer a few other
diversions. Primarily those would be in line with the generally quiet, genteel
peace that settles on the area which was designed, first and foremost, to
provide an escape.

Located 500 feet above sea level, and sheltered from
the cold air of the Great Plains by the Appalachian Mountains, Pinehurst
is blessed with a mild, dry climate thats pleasant year-round. Thanks
to an upper layer of sand, the earth warms and cools rapidly, so warm
days, cool nights and low humidity are the norm. Consequently, there are
few days when you wont be comfortable playing golf or tennis, or just
strolling one if the many wonderful areas of Pinehurst, Southern Pines,
and their neighboring communities.

In 1895 Boston businessman James Walker Tufts purchased 5,000 acres of sandy
East Carolina wasteland for $1 acre. Attracted by the moderate climate, well
drained soil and fresh pine trees, he thought the area offered natural health
benefits and wanted to create a winter resort for New Englanders.
The Holly Inn was opened by the Christmas season and featured electric
lights, steam heat and telephones. Tufts contracted with Frederick Law Olmsted,
America's foremost landscape architect whose credits also include Central Park,
the U.S. Capitol grounds, and Biltmore House, to lay out a town. The village he
constructed around an oval green with winding roads remains essentially
unchanged in concept today.
Golf soon became a part of Pinehurst as the 1897 season brought reports of
guests hitting little white balls in the cow pasture. The game was in its
infancy in America, but Tufts seized the opportunity and had Dr. D. LeRoy Culver
of New York lay out nine holes in 1898. Nine more holes were added the next
year, and soon the course was attracting notice.
The most significant move of the early days came in 1900 when Tufts convinced
Donald Ross of Dornoch, Scotland to take over care and construction of the
course. Ross stayed at Pinehurst until 1948 and in that time came to be
recognized as one of the founding fathers of American golf. Not only did he
design many of the now famous Pinehurst courses, but nearly 400 others
nationwide.
The resort prospered, offering among other features riding, hunting,
shooting, polo, lawn bowling, bicycling and archery. In 1901 the Pinehurst Hotel
(then the Carolina Hotel) opened with the latest in comforts. The facility is
still highly regarded and rated, besides being the largest wooden hotel in North
Carolina.
Pinehurst is most closely associated with golf, and
rightly so. Our area boasts more that 43 courses, including the world renowned
Pinehurst No. 2,
recently restored for the purpose of returning to the courses natural
aesthetic characteristics while bringing back the strategic play originally
crafted by Donald Ross.
Pinehurst resort was picked to host the 2014 U.S. Open, its third in 15
years.
Although still mostly thought of as a resort, Pinehurst and the surrounding
area has been gathering a larger number of year-round residents in the last few
years, lured no doubt by the climate and peacefulness that attracted Mr. Tufts
over 100 years ago. trade binary options
