The closest courses to Knights Stadium are gonna be Renny, both courses at Elon, and the Winthrop courses. Hornet's Nest and Nevin are just a little further north along I77, and both are worth the trip. Nevin is kind of a love/hate course. Some people love the challenge, while others hate the beat down. Almost everybody loves the Nest, and Renny's a different kind of beat down. Really, though, there's a bunch of great courses around here. I was thoroughly impressed with the Scrapyard, one of the newest courses in the area, but it's a little ways away from Knight's stadium.
I'm not sure about the hotel situation, but I'm sure there are several in that area.
