More Golfing Under the Lights: 3’s Expanding into Charlotte
What if you didn’t have to worry that sunset didn’t mean the end of golfing? And what if it also meant there was somewhere fun to learn and enjoy the game, whether that meant during a date or casual night out with friends?

3’s is the innovative new concept in golf entertainment that combines accessible Par-3 golf with cutting-edge hospitality that—with the help of field lights—doesn’t end at sunset.
With the incredible success of their first location in Greenville (SC), 3’s has determined its time to open another location and purchased an existing par-3 course in Charlotte, North Carolina. Pebble Creek Golf Course in Indian Trail will undergo extensive renovation, bringing the 3’s concept of fun, food, and par-3 golf to one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the United States.
An opening of the new 3’s Charlotte location is planned for the latter half of 2025.
In 2022, 8AM Golf, along with partner Justin Timberlake, invested in 3’s with the intent of refining and replicating the popular and successful Greenville, South Carolina golf hospitality concept in major metro areas across the United States. The 3’s concept has proven incredibly successful since then, and the acquisition of the Charlotte-area Indian Trail course will serve as the next phase in 3’s expansion plan.
Hoyt McGarity, president of 8AM Golf, said:
“The 3’s blueprint that we created in Greenville has proven to be everything we had hoped—it’s the perfect golf destination for a relaxed gathering of friends and family. From the onset, we had an expansive vision for 3’s, and it’s great to see these efforts come to fruition with the plans we have for our second location in Charlotte.”

Like the original, 3’s Charlotte location will feature 12 par-3 holes under lights, as well as an inviting eatery known as the “Grubhouse,” which offers delicious comfort food, drinks, and merchandise. The casual and homey vibe will be enhanced by firepits, Adirondack chairs, and music.
Davis Sezna, founder of 3’s, said:
“Bringing 3’s to life in Greenville was incredibly gratifying because we were able to achieve our goal of creating a great spot for hanging out and enjoying golf in a casual, fun, and affordable way. We’re really excited about recreating that vibe in Charlotte, getting creative with the design, and refining the offerings.”
