<strong>Mecklenburg</strong> <strong>County</strong> Park & Recreation<br />
Parks, Preserves and Greenways<br />
Golf Facilities<br />
Cadillac Golf Ranch: The Cadillac Golf Ranch is a state-of-the-art golf learning<br />
and practice facility that opened in August 2010 in Pineville. The Cadillac Golf<br />
Ranch was conceived to be a “club” without a golf course. Our vision is for a place<br />
where golfers can meet, socialize, practice, learn and discuss the game of golf in<br />
a clean and pleasant atmosphere. We hope to create a place where golfers of all<br />
skill levels will find “their” place to fulfill their practice, learning, equipment and<br />
recreational needs.<br />
