About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Par 72
Length 6367 yards
Slope 126
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.

Winding Creek

The course was in great shape, however the greens were much slower than I am used to.

Pace was Awful

I fully anticipate slower pace on a day when the course is wet and it is cart path only. However, when you have to sit nearly 10 minutes between each shot on the back 9 because pace has slowed so drastically. My playing partner and I quit after 16 because we had been out there for nearly 5 hours and were tired of waiting.

There needs to be a ranger consistently going around, as well as a starter at 1. People just pull up and start playing whenever regardless of tee time.

I have loved this course since I first discovered it at the beginning of Covid. I've enjoyed watching it grow over the last 4 years and continue to succeed, but as with all things some apparent growing pains need to be addressed.

For the money it’s a pretty nice course

The staff has been taking really good care of the course. Fairways are striped, greens are kind of hit or miss tho some are fast some aren’t.

Winding creek

I quit after 15 holes and 5 1/2 hours later. This is the worst course for slow play and no rules and regulations

Just one negative

The tee times are basically irrelevant my tee time was 10:40am and I was waiting behind a 4some that had a time for 10:32 seemed normal until I heard the group of 5 teeing off 2-3 groups ahead of us tee time was 11:05? Then another group with a 10:57 teeing off as well. Just because I’m at the driving range doesn’t mean Im not gonna be at the tee box for my time it shouldn’t just be first come first serve I ended up teeing off at like 11:15 which seems kinda ridiculous considering I watch 3 groups with times after mine let ahead this is and has been my favorite course but this one issue has driven me elsewhere in the past couple weeks and again on 4/20/24 it’s just getting worse and worse

Mid

Pace of play was horrendous. They could do a MUCH better job managing this …. actually anything would be better than current. Not a ranger in sight. Tee boxes littered with cigarettes and beer cans plus I had to clean an empty case of beer out of the cart myself before we could tee off. The course itself, outside of #2 which is ridiculous, is really pretty cool and fun to play. 4h 45m for a round kills all the positive though.

Overbooking

Not a bad course. I can only tell by the 3 holes that I played.

It took 1 1/2 to play 3 holes. I had to leave.

There was literally 2 foresomes on the second hole waiting at the tee box.

Not ALL Bad

Ridiculously slow on the front. When you have three groups waiting on the tee just about every hole …… makes for a long day. Taking just under 5 hours to play 18 holes is insane!!! Layout is actually pretty cool minus the dumb second hole. Tee boxes were all just about trashed … cigarette butts and beer cans laying around (not to mention the 15 cans I had to remove from the cart we got at 8:15 a.m.). All that said, the golf course itself is fun to play and allows for misses without those crushing your round.

Decent place to play

Played on a Saturday so the pace of play was really slow. It’s a challenging course. Played in March so there wasn’t much grass. Most of the cart path is pretty rough. The pro shop is decently stocked and the staff was friendly.

Winding creek

We always enjoy plaiying Winding Creek, but this time they did not let Golf Now know that they had punched the greens the day before. It should have been an alert for me before I booked around.

More fun than it costs!

Fun challenging course. Plenty of elevation changes to keep it interesting. If you’re precise or can move the ball off the tee, this is a great course especially given the $35 weekend w/cart fee.

Winding

Don't be afraid to play this course. Water doesn't come into play much unless you really hook one. Hilly course gives you some great views of the course.

Hope to play it again.
