-- Perfect for Wedding Parties, 8 Golfers, or family reunions! --
Enjoy the panoramic view of THREE different Donald Ross originals...holes #15, #16, #17 of the wonderful Pinehurst #3 golf course. We believe our views of three greens from the screened back porch are among the best that Pinehurst has to offer.
Three Green Retreat offers an ideal Pinehurst location beside the Par 3, 16th hole on Pinehurst #3. Situated close-by to the Pinehurst clubhouse, take the short walk up through the 18th fairway. At the house, enjoy plenty of space, a billiards room, HDTVs throughout, a private backyard, and an outdoor Jacuzzi. Furniture, beds as well as all linens are what you would expect to find in a very nice hotel. For Wedding Parties, you'll be pleased with the extra large mirrors in each bedroom!
For those unfamiliar with the Pinehurst area, please understand that only courses #1-#5 play to/from the legendary Pinehurst Country Club. The beautiful #6-#8 are located in nearby residential areas.
Your tour may vary, but our visits seem to proceed this way:
1. Breakfast on the back porch while watching the day’s prep of Pinehurst #3
2. Golf
3. After a round (or two), relax on the back porch, be a golf spectator or perhaps spend a few minutes in the Jacuzzi
4. Dinner at one of the area’s best
5. Billiards in the lower level
It’s a tough itinerary; we hope you’re up to it. Don’t overdo it --you just may have to repeat this routine again tomorrow.
Our home offers 5 bedrooms (8 beds in total) and 3.5 bathrooms:
~Main floor: One double twin bedroom, plus a half bath.
~Upper level: One king suite (includes bathroom/shower) and two additional bedrooms which hold 2 twins each, plus a full bath.
~Lower level: One queen bedroom with a full bathroom.
Other house features include a fully-equipped kitchen, large dining room (seating for 8), living room with fireplace, laundry room, and WIFI access. From the main floor's living and dining room, three sets of French doors lead to a spacious open deck and screened porch that offer beautiful views of the course. The finished lower level features a complete billiards room with bar as well as walk-out access to the backyard and Jacuzzi.
Cleaning is performed by a professional cleaning company. Also, all linens are cleaned off site for highest sanitation.
Your expectations will be met at the Three Green Retreat!

Directly across the street from the Three Green Retreat is another VRBO Property. Combined, our homes provide a total of 8 bedrooms and 13 beds. My neighbors home is listing Number #133992 - "Spacious Pinehurst Home with Jacuzzi and Internet." Also, just around the corner (3 min walk) is another 4 bedroom home.

Enjoy Panoramic Views of Pinehurst at the Three Green Retreat!
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Pinehurst
Pinehurst is a place where people really enjoy golf. It's more than a game, it is the common thread that connects all of it's residents. The first time you arrive in Pinehurst, you may wonder what all the fuss is about. That feeling lasts for a very short time until you realize that you are now completely immersed into the American Home of Golf and wish that you could stay forever.
Location of Payne Stewart's final hole birdie to beat Phil Mickelson in the 1999 US OPEN.
From the 18th Green, it is a 3 minute walk up to the clubhouse. Use the Cart Crossing location to cross Route 5.
Lots of shops, restaurants, etc. Parking is easy. Although it is only a 10-12 minute walk from the Three Green Retreat, I recommend driving over. Here you will find Poppy's Ice Cream, The Darling H
From the circle, follow Rt 2 West past the Pinehurst Country Club, straight across Rt 5 onto McKenzie, 2nd left onto Lost Tree, 1st Left onto Briarwood Circle...house on Left.
Rent boats, swimming, etc. You will Pinehurst passes to use the Beach Club.
Owner's Map of Pinehurst
We live in CT and play golf regularly at a wonderful old (1917) Willie Park JR designed course called Shuttle Meadow.
After making a few trips to Pinehurst for the annual "guys golf" trip, the allure of the area was simply too strong. In the Spring of 2008, we made a family trip to the area. Fate brought us to our home as we rented (through VRBO) the house directly across the street and stared at the For Sale sign on the Three Green Retreat for 3-4 days. Although this property was priced considerably higher than what we originally were seeking, the panoramic views of the golf course were too amazing to pass up.
After viewing some properties in the Myrtle Beach area, we returned to CT. After a few phones calls and some serious number crunching, we decided that the quiet, quaint Village of Pinehurst was the right destination for us!

Scott, The house was ideal for our needs, and the weekend exceeded my very high hopes and expectations. Thanks so much for assisting with the golf arrangements for Friday. Pinehurst #1 was a perfect starting point for us, and we heeded your advice and hit #3 that afternoon too. I could not possibly heap enough praise on the accommodations. We would highly recommend it groups similar to ours, and hope that we can pull off a repeat stay in the same locale in the future. Many thanks to you for helping us have such a celebratory, enjoyable and hassle-free reunion.

Scott, I want to thank you for an enjoyable weekend at your house in Pinehurst. It was a truly ideal location coupled with some great golf and even better weather. I will without a doubt refer you to friends who will be making a trip to the area in the future, and will keep you in mind when I make it back. We plan on making this trip a yearly event. Regards, JK

Scott: Thank you so much for providing the perfect setting for our 25th anniversary. The house layout was perfect for our guests. The screened in porch was my favorite place to relax. Whether it was in the morning sipping coffee or winding down at the end of an evening. The gazebo out front provided the perfect setting for our pictures that we took on Saturday evening. The welcome letter and treats were an extra special touch that was much appreciated. Thank you also for your willingness to make one of the twin rooms into a king bed room. That made the set up perfect to accommodate the couples. Thank you again for a wonderful weekend! Your place is absolutely gorgeous.

Pat, I was just wondering how your trip went? Many thanks and Happy New Year! -- Scott ***** I’m so glad you asked….sorry, we got home and hit the pavement running with the new year. I’ve attached a couple of photos of our fun memories. WE HAD A FABULOUS TIME, truly a Christmas we will all remember. The house was just what we needed – each family had their own space and with five little people three and under, periods of escape were needed. LOVED, LOVED the lower level which became a great play space for kids and adults both. The large dining room table allowed us all to gather together for meals and even gingerbread house competition. Our kids agreed that the house was perfect for us and made our Christmas a special time for all of us to be together. We would most definitely choose to stay at 3 Green Retreat in the future. Thanks, Scott. You were a delight to work with. Blessings, Pat

Guys Golf Trip

The property was perfect for a guys golf vacation for 5 days. Close proximity to everything in Pinehurst, comfortable, clean accomodations for eight, some used the hot tub after a long day of golf, some played pool in the basement, all enjoyed the 50in TV to watch Mich. State vs Notre Dame with a great finish. Everyone also enjoyed the screened in porch to relax, cool down and discuss the days games. We would highly recommend this property. It was well described in the listing, the house was clean and well maintained and we all enjoyed the location and ease of travel to the golf courses.

Three Green Retreat is perfect for a guys golf getaway

Review Submitted: 08/11/10
We had a great time at your house. The guys really enjoyed your house as well, the overall quality of the home, the location, the amenities (HDTV, outdoor speakers, pool table)… it was perfect for us. We could walk into the village to enjoy the pubs and restaurants. The house is on Pinehurst #3's 16th hole, a 182 yard par 3, so it was fun to watch some people play. Three Green Retreat was plenty big for 8 guys, we had everything we needed, and spent plenty of time on the back porch enjoying some cold beers while recapping the golf rounds. We barbecued one night and your kitchen came equipped with everything we needed – down to the grilling tongs and spatula. All we had to do was bring ourselves, fill the fridge with some food and beer, and you had everything else we could ask for. It was perfect. We’re already talking about a return trip in 2011 and we will most certainly want to come back to your house, only this time add an extra day or two (3 nights / 3 days was just too short).
Owner response:Thanks for the kind words. We do our best to try to think of everything our guests will need in order to enjoy their stay. Your last comment is one that we hear quite often from the groups staying for only 2-3 days. With so many great courses in the area, it's really hard to experience all of the flavors of Pinehurst golf in a couple of days. We look forward to your return!

Scott, The trip was great and everything in the house was fine. The restaurants we went to were Dugan's (twice), Vito's, and the Pinecrest Inn which was really enjoyable. As far as courses go I thought Little River was probably the best value (they gave us the local resident rate ($85) instead of the rack rate ($115)) but I really like Tobacco Road and Legacy. We played Deercroft and Longleaf which were fine for the money but not on the level of the other three. Thanks for everything. Henry

Hi Scott, I just wanted to say that the house was great as well as the weather! I got back a couple of hours ago and the weather is not nearly as warm as Pinehurst. The golf was great. We will certainly do it again next year and this house is certainly # 1 if we return to Pinehurst. Based on the feedback, we should be back. Thanks again, Rob

In sum, your house was wonderful and worked out perfectly for our group. While we all certainly could have doubled up, everyone enjoyed having their own space. Not surprisingly, we spent the bulk of our time either in the basement or out on the patio. Michael, the caddie that you recommended, was simply excellent. Our group was generally not burning up #2 when we played it (although, in fairness, we didn't struggle horribly either), but Michael seemed to enjoy our good-natured group. Michael was an excellent recommendation on your part, and I let him know that when the round was over. As for #2, we thought it was brilliant. I had fallen into a bit of a funk and wasn't playing especially well during the days before, and thus had mixed emotions about #2. However, once we teed off, what a fabulous experience it was. Absolutely no regrets, and I think the rest of my group felt the same way. One of my buddies shot 1-over on the front (so I will never hear the end of that), although the pendulum swung and he played far worse than normal on the back. So goes golf. We also very much enjoyed #4 - as we were told and expected, a beautiful course. We also played #3, although we weren't especially sharp in doing so. We generally had a great time in the Village - had some nice meals, saw some live music, and pretty much took over the karaoke experience at Doogan's on Thursday night. Our trip was a rousing success. Thanks very much for your the use of your house.
