Rating 71.0

Winding Creek Golf Club in Thomasville is an 18-hole municipal course that is one of the most affordable rounds in the area. It is a regulation-length layout that measures 6,367 yards from the tips. The design is a true target-golf test that is player friendly enough for beginners but will also challenge more advanced players. The golf course is perched atop one of the highest points in Davidson County. From elevated tees and greens you can enjoy dramatic views as well as some intimidating shots. It's a golf course that will most likely have you using every club in your bag. Though there is plenty of variety, the course isn't too formidable for high handicappers. In addition to the golf course, Winding Creek also has a putting green and driving range that you can use for warming up.

Crazy course

What can I say? This course is crazy with all the blind shots, undulating up and down, side to side fairways. Undulating greens as well! 1st time playing makes it a guessing game to hit it in the right spot. The tee boxes are great, with plenty of grass, the fairways are mostly narrow, but well seeded, the rough was not too thick, and the greens were perfect, but hard to read, and small mostly. There are some excellent scenic views here , as well as some weird ones with giant phone towers and fences. No houses on the course is nice. I couldn't get over the layout and sometimes it was hard to tell where to go to find the next tee box. Also, on some holes, you are hitting your second shot right toward or over a tee box to the green. Just plain confusing is what it is. Enjoyedbour round and I recommend playing at least once for the views and craziness.

One of the best public golf courses in the area. Great fairway grass and smooth greens you get rewarded a lot of times if you stay in the fairway.

Greens were bad

Overall Wnding Creek is a challenging course. The only issue I had was the greens. They had been aerated, but no notice was posted on Golf Now and no word from the Pro. It would hsve been nice to have known ahead of time.

Just Average

Played Winding Creek on a whim today and it was spectacularly average. The area received a good amount of rain in the last few days so the course was soaked, not their fault. However, I was surprised it wasn't cart path only, I went off at 9:30 and already the fairways and soft spots were trashed with muddy cart tracks.

If you're an above average player I would choose somewhere else, the course tips out at like 6,400 yards. Short courses can still be fun but this one just didn't excite me.

The greens in my opinion were again just average, yes they were wet and soft so they probably couldn't be cut this morning.

Overall I think its a course your going to be headed to after work with a 12 pack and a 5 some. A solid 3 star course, staff was friendly but just not worth the drive down from Greensboro.

Great layout but numerous un-fixed ball marks on each green

Fair and enjoyable layout with a good mix of elevation changes. Played as a twosome and didn’t force us to pair up (I’m sure this is because of COVID), but played in 4 hours after teeing off mid-morning on the weekend. Pace seemed to pick up after ranger came out. Numerous un-fixed ball marks on every green. Friendly staff in golf shop and grill.

Friendly service on the condition that we were playing

Being a first time player on this course my wife and I had a good time the course was in good condention it was wide open grass was cut greens were good. Only thing that would help next time is to have better directions around the course. Got lost a few times. But over all we give it a 4.

Course was in great shape. Pace was good, not any long waits on any hole. Greens smooth, no burn or bumps. Not an issue but always like to state that a spotter on #2 would probably speed play since it is blind tee shot and sloped fairway.

Great day at Winding Creek Golf Course

The golf course is in great shape from tee to green. The greens ran around a 9 and rolled true. We had a threesome in front of us but when we came to number 10 a single jumped in front of us .We played the back nine waiting on him to hit every shot and the threesome that was in front of us was two holes ahead. This golfer played two balls every hole.I drove an hour to get to the course for a 8:02 tee time. I don't think I will be back because of the situation we put up with on the back nine.
