About Kilmarlic Golf Club

Kilmarlic Golf Club is a standout public course in Powells Point, situated on the mainland just before the Wright Memorial Bridge that connects to the Outer Banks. Designed by Pete Dye disciple Tom Steele and opened in 2000, Kilmarlic has established itself as a premier destination for golfers driving to or from the Outer Banks, offering a championship-caliber experience that rivals anything on the Banks themselves. The course meanders through a maritime landscape of wetlands, natural Carolina bays, and dense coastal forest, with dramatic elevation changes unusual for this flat coastal region created by the shaping of the natural terrain. Water hazards and marsh areas come into play on numerous holes, demanding precise shot placement and course management. Kilmarlic is widely regarded as one of the best public courses in northeastern North Carolina, providing an elevated experience that surprises first-time visitors expecting a modest coastal layout.

History

Kilmarlic Golf Club opened in 2000, designed by Tom Steele in the tradition of Pete Dye's strategic design philosophy. The course was conceived to serve the heavy golfer traffic heading to and from the Outer Banks, providing a premium alternative to the limited options on the barrier islands themselves. It quickly earned recognition as one of northeastern North Carolina's finest public facilities.

Why Kilmarlic Golf Club is Hard to Book
Booking Difficulty
Moderately competitive

Strong seasonal demand during summer Outer Banks travel season, but the course's mainland location means less saturation than OBX-specific venues.

Without automated alerts, you'd need to constantly refresh the booking site hoping to catch a cancellation. That's where TeeTimeGo comes in — we monitor the tee sheet and notify you the moment a slot opens.

Insider Booking Tips

Book 1–2 weeks ahead for summer weekend rounds when Outer Banks traffic peaks. Spring and fall offer excellent conditions with much easier tee time availability. Twilight rates provide good value.
