My parents were in town visiting from Sarasota Florida and decided to play golf at Cape Fear National, the new premier golf course at Brunswick Forest. They had very positive reviews of the course and said that it was a “must play” in the greater Wilmington area! They described it as beautiful, challenging with huge bunkers and a lot of water! It was a beautiful day to play, the day before Christmas eve, with the sun shining and about 57 degrees.
