I feel like there is really no one gift that fits all. That is why we have offered you several gift guides this year. For the travel enthusiast, like myself, I am thinking that the Pinehurst Area Holiday Gift Guide might be just what the Santa ordered. The Home of American Golf has so much to offer, I think you will be amazed. Check out our gift ideas below and let us know what we should add. Happy Holidays!
Pinehurst Area Holiday Gift Guide
Precision Art Putters
For golfers, the putter is often the most important club in the bag. It’s not just the feel, but also how the putter looks. Now, you can play one that is beautiful, has a solid feel — and in the right hands, can be deadly accurate. Precision Art Putters are handmade and one of a kind. Handcrafted by David Fernandez, these unique putters have an amazing feel when striking the ball. Custom pattern and permanent color on the surface of the putter makes them even more appealing. Each Precision Art Putter is gripped with a quality midsize or jumbo Winn Grip and comes with a magnetic head cover.
Handbags (And More) from R. Riveter
A true, American success story. The sturdy and stylish handbags R. Riveter creates are handcrafted by military spouses, known as Riveters, who are stationed worldwide. The name was inspired by World War II cultural icon Rosie the Riveter, who symbolizes the contribution women made to the workforce that helped win the war. “Rosie the Riveter embodies everything that we stand for,” says the company founders. “Our mission is a bit more modern, but her spirit and ‘we can do it’ attitude still apply.”
Winter Golf At The Pinehurst Resort
It may be getting chilly outside but don’t retire your clubs just yet. At the world-renowned Pinehurst Resort & Country Club, mild winter temperatures ensure golf is always in season. Visit December through February and enjoy the resort’s best rates of the year. Stay for $198 per night, which includes one round of golf or 50-min spa treatment per night stayed and the resort’s overflowing breakfast buffet each morning. Grab two clubs and play The Cradle, which Golf Channel called, “the most fun 10 acres in all of golf.” Experience Gil Hanse’s new Pinehurst No. 4 and see why Golf Magazine named it the Best New Course You Can Play in 2018. Finally, settle your bets at Pinehurst Brewing Co., a 10-barrel brewery and smokehouse in the historic steam plant building in the Village of Pinehurst.
Southern Supreme’s Holiday Favorite
Southern Supreme’s fruitcake is arguably the best on Earth. They’ve flipped the narrative about fruitcake and have turned heads across the globe in the process. The family owned company has been making edible treats for decades. And their fruitcakes are ordered by people everywhere. Skip the hassle of baking this year but still enjoy a variety of your favorite gourmet treats, including the special, Scott-family recipe “famous nutty fruitcake,” cookies, jams, jellies, mustard, pralines, truffles, coffee, hot apple cider mix and cocoa made from fresh-shaved chocolate.
Display Your Patriotic Spirit With A Heritage Flag
For a uniquely patriotic holiday goodie, try a handcrafted Heritage Flag and appreciate the amazing level of detail in each product. Heritage Flag Company produces a variety of flags made from whiskey and wine barrels – some even made from trees that fell along Pinehurst No. 2 during Hurricane Matthew in 2016. Most of the flags on display in the company’s Southern Pines retail space are ready for purchase, as well as specialty items that are only available for purchase in the store. As an added bonus, the Heritage Flag Company has constructed works of art that have helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for causes all over the country.
Enjoy a North Carolina Art Show In Pinehurst
Moore County native William Mangum has returned home for a special art show that celebrates North Carolina at the Broadhurst Gallery — 2212 Midland Road. The one-man exhibition features 50 new paintings that showcase the state’s natural beauty of seasons and topography, from secret hideaways to colorful gardens. As one of the South’s leading landscape artists, Mangum’s art career is synonymous with celebrating his beloved home state. His exhibit runs until December 21.
Something Yummy From The Pinehurst Olive Oil Co.
The Pinehurst Olive Oil Company specialize in a wide variety of the finest, healthiest fused and infused oils, as well as Ultra-Premium Extra Virgin Olive oils. The products arrive straight from Veronica Foods, which was founded by Italian immigrants in 1924 and now searches the world for the finest olive oils — importing more than a million gallons each year. This retail space, tucked off a side street in the heart of the village of Pinehurst, is a tasting store where customers are provided with the proper knowledge and information to fully understand the health benefits of all the products. Make your favorite foodie very happy this holiday season.
Improve Your Health With A Treatment At The Southern Salt Room
The benefits of Halotherapy — or Salt Therapy — are extensive. Dry salt is super absorbent and antibacterial. These micro sized salt particles travel deep into the respiratory system and absorb excess moisture, remove allergens, toxins and foreign substances, break up stagnated mucus, restore the function of cilia and widen the airways. Southern Salt Room provides natural remedies to improve health and reduce the cost of healthcare. Regular Halotherapy, combined with the workout regimen, helps athletes to improve respiratory efficiency by delivering more oxygen to the musculature as well as increasing the removal of carbon dioxide from the body.
The Corner Store With Something More – Local
Located in the heart of the Village of Pinehurst, The Corner Store is a fun place to explore to find that perfect small gift, keepsake, or tasty treat from the area. We recommend buying a bag of Yum Yums! Made locally in West End, NC, these minicakes are a one-of-a-kind mini-dessert that will make you smile with every bite. Each package comes with cakes in a variety of flavors, so there is something for everyone to enjoy.
