Our first call for comment: What do you know about Eagle Pointe?

    Just as I was checking out of a bed and breakfast in Wilmington, NC, recently after a research trip that included enjoyable rounds of golf at Porter's Neck and the Nicklaus course at Landfall, the proprietor asked me if I had visited Eagle Pointe.  I hadn't, nor had I even heard of it.  He indicated it was "super private" and built five years ago by a few equities traders from "up north" who wanted a course where they knew they could always get a tee time, even at the last minute.  So they built Eagle Pointe.
    Internet searches have turned up only cursory information -- the course was designed by Tom Fazio and plays up to 7,170 yards -- but the club remains shrouded in a little mystery.  Anyone played it?  Anyone know anything more about it?  Please post any comments below, and thanks.
