Pinehurst is a New England-style village with quiet, shaded streets and immaculately kept homes ranging from massive Victorians to tiny cottages. It was laid out in the late 1800s in a wagon-wheel pattern by landscape genius Frederick Law Olmsted, who also designed New York City's Central Park. Annie Oakley lived here for a number of years, and while she was here headed the local gun club. Today Pinehurst is renowned for its golf courses.
