Carolina Club
There is a Carolina Club that meets once a month, I think at Churchill rec center, check your rec news for details. It is a good club that has an eastern NC BBQ once a year.

coming from NC
We will be moving from NC to TV next summer (to Sanibel). Lived in NC all my life but can't wait to spend the rest of it in TV. Will miss the beaches and the NC Tarheels, but at least they're on tv.

Drove up by the Cliffs several times. Never made it up the steep hill to the course. Hear there are some big name celebrities that have homes there, Tom Glavine and Dottie Pepper are two names I heard.

Go nc!
As a life long Tar Heel I a retiring next week from UNC- Chapel Hill, and we'll be moving to our home in Hadley - probably by October,
Now if ya'll want to start a NC club, I could bring my pig cooker so we can start NC BBQ appreciation , maybe our northern neighbors could agree to be the judges, anyone got their own sauce recipe? of course you do realize the only bad NC BBQ is that BBQ you can not get upon your plate when you are hungry, Whoo!, we get to be full time, no more 4 day weekends and a long drive to have fun! I am giving up my Dean Dome seats to move,

Yes, we have and Grove Park is wonderful
Also a Donald Ross course, he was a busy man in NC....The Hotel is so charming with their GIANT fireplace and unique rooms with the bathtubs with claw feet.....Love Asheville an artsy town.... Ashville CC is real close to Grove Park and also a wonderful golf course....I was trying to remember the golf course off of I-40 that was a Par 6 on one of the holes....Do you remember the name of that course?

I had no idea this thread would get so many responses
I thought all of you wonderful NC lovers stayed there....
Gatorfan: Since your Mom was raised in Cherryville, would she remember Ann Starnes, she lived in Morganton and was an avid golfer but was also raised in Cherryville.. Linwood: When we moved to NC (husband opened practice for 27 years in Morganton), we were told you couldn't live in state unless you were a Tar Heel fan, so we have been following them to this day. The guy that owns Oakwood BBQ here must be from Carolina, because they make some mighty fine BBQ... Schotzyb: Played Woodbury CC, sorry to hear about condition, a nice course but very challenging, like you said...Didn't know Dottie P was a member of the Cliffs (I believe there are three Cliffs now, do you know which one?..I just remembered the name of the course with the Par 6, Black Mountain!...good, now maybe I can sleep...tee hee Designdiva: Thanks for update on Carolina Club Scott8147: Welcome to paradise, you will just love this place, and the beaches are just an hour away...I'm surprised we haven't heard from the Dukies, Deacons and the Wolfpack (I promise not to hold it against you)...A lot of great colleges in NC |

We have lived in Wilson, N.C. , with future plan to live in TV. I can tell you about great places to eat. First, we have the BEST BBQ in the world. We Have a place called Parker's BBQ and
another one called Bill's BBQ. The other place to go especially if you are a steak lover, is a place called THE BEEFMASTER. By far,,,,absolutely the best steak you will eat. No menu, you get a rib-eye sized at the table, baked potatoe and salad to die for. I will put those three place against any place in the world. I own a retail shipping store and I ship lots of BBQ all over the USA, on a weekly basic, especially to Florida. If you want the best BBQ, call Parker's in Wilson, N.C. and they will give you my shipping store #. |

I have only been in The Villages since May. I am from Statesville, NC and also had a small beach cottage in Carolina Beach, NC, which is 13 miles from Wilmington, NC. Statesville is only about an hours drive going up Interstate 40. I used to do some volunteer work at the Western Carolina Center in Morganton. I also have relatives that live in Morganton. Love NC but love Florida even more. I know I am not going to miss the winters!!!
