A 1921 Golf Lodge with a Ross Course Steps from the Front Door
Mid Pines Inn sits at 1010 Midland Road in Southern Pines with 59 rooms and its own Donald Ross golf course steps from the front door. The property operates as a self-contained golf lodge: check in, walk to the first tee, play, eat, sleep, repeat. Stay-and-play packages combine lodging with rounds at both Mid Pines and Pine Needles, the sister property directly across Midland Road.
The inn carries a traditional character that reflects its 1921 origins. Rooms are comfortable without pretending to luxury. The outdoor pool, tennis courts, and common areas provide enough amenity to fill a non-golf afternoon. The atmosphere is quiet and unpretentious, which suits golfers who come to the Sandhills for the courses rather than the resort experience.
Estimated rates of $180 to $300 per night, depending on season and package configuration, position Mid Pines well below the Pinehurst Resort campus. For golfers whose primary interest is Ross architecture rather than No. 2 specifically, a stay at Mid Pines with rounds at both Midland Road courses delivers a concentrated Ross experience at a fraction of the resort cost. The five-mile distance from the resort campus is short enough for a day trip to play a resort course if a package is booked separately.
Located at 1010 Midland Rd, Southern Pines. Stay-and-play packages with Mid Pines and Pine Needles golf. Approximately five miles from Pinehurst Resort campus. Pool, tennis, and on-site dining available.
The proximity of the inn to its own golf course and to Pine Needles across the street. Two Ross courses and a traditional golf lodge within walking distance of each other, at prices that make a three-night stay-and-play feasible without a resort-tier budget.
