Golf and suburbia right between Greensboro and Burlington
The Stoney Creek Golf Club community is a suburban oasis on the west side of Whitsett. Spacious homes and a championship golf course are surrounded by miles of forests, farms and occasional industrial parks. But thanks to nearby highways, Interstates 40 and 85, the neighborhood is close to the urban hubs of Greensboro and Burlington, with Winston-Salem and Durham not much farther down the road. “I’ve lived here for over 20 years, and it’s been great,” says Carolyn Cudd, Realtor with Realty One Group Results. “I love living on the golf course and seeing everyone drive up. Also, the people here are really nice. Some have been here a very long time, while others have just moved in.”
Many of the residents of Stoney Creek Golf Club keep well-manicured lawns.

The oldest homes sprang up in the late 1990s, while new constructions continue to enter the neighborhood.

Stoney Creek Golf Club is the neighborhood’s centerpiece
Stoney Creek Golf Club sits at the neighborhood’s core, the community’s namesake and main attraction, particularly for its scenic championship 19-hole course. “The golf club has more of a rustic feel than the ones that are out in the city,” says Gloria Mitchell, Realtor with Wilkinson Triad, who has been selling homes in the area for 30 years. “The people are very friendly, and the club’s more affordable than ones in the city like Sedgefield.” The members-only club also offers an aquatics center, clubhouse and lessons for those looking to improve their golf game. In 2019, the North Carolina Golf Panel voted the course as one of the top 100 in the state. Guilford-Mackintosh Park and Marina lies just a few miles south of the neighborhood, where Little Alamance Creek flows into the Lake Mackintosh reservoir. The park offers miles of arboreal hiking trails along with a boat ramp. Alternatively, visitors can rent canoes, kayaks and rowboats. Motorboats are not permitted on Lake Mackintosh, nor is swimming allowed; however, anglers are welcome to fish. At Springwood Park, a few miles to the east, athletes can play baseball, softball or an 18-hole disc golf course.

Schools with an emphasis on community service and a nearby university

The school was established at the request of Charlotte Hawkins Brown, a civil rights activist and educator who ran the Palmer Memorial Institute, a school for Black children. Brown wanted to see the establishment of a public school for the children who could not afford Palmer’s tuition. Eastern Guilford Middle and Eastern Guilford High both receive C-pluses. Students at Eastern Guilford High can participate in the National Beta Senior Club, an honor society where 12th-grade students complete 70 hours of community service.
