Justin Timberlake‑backed entertainment operator 3’s is working through permits to turn the former Pebble Creek Golf Course in Indian Trail into a par‑3 golf‑and‑grub hangout. The company bought the roughly 33‑acre property in 2024 and is planning several million dollars in renovations. If town officials sign off, the project would bring 3’s lit‑night golf, a Grubhouse restaurant and expanded practice areas to the eastern edge of the Charlotte metro.
Permit push and the purchase
As reported by Charlotte Business Journal, 3 Cheers Holdings LLC, the entity tied to 3’s, purchased Pebble Creek in 2024 and has submitted applications with Indian Trail to redevelop the course. The filings outline plans to reconfigure the layout into 3’s signature par‑3 format and to add an onsite Grubhouse and other hospitality amenities. The outlet also notes the project had initially been penciled in for a late‑2025 opening, before the permitting process slowed that timeline.
What 3’s brings
3’s launched in Greenville and promotes a 12‑hole par‑3 course, an 18‑hole putting course and a casual “Grubhouse” built around burgers, drinks and music, according to the company’s media page on 3’s. The site also lists 8AM Golf and Justin Timberlake as investors and says the concept is designed to “make golf more accessible” for new players. Local coverage of the Greenville operation has highlighted the mix of food, late‑night programming and illuminated golf that the company hopes to replicate in the Charlotte area, including a feature in GVLtoday.
Site history and scale
Local reporting and county property records show 3 Cheers Holdings paid about $1.5 million for the nearly 33‑acre Pebble Creek site, according to coverage in KISS 95.1. The course sits off Highway 74 and includes low‑lying areas that local reports say are prone to flooding, an issue developers will have to address during engineering and stormwater reviews. Reporting indicates 3’s expects to invest several million dollars to rework the course and build out the Grubhouse and related amenities…
