About
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.

The Fairways Need Help
Winding Creek is one of my favorite courses, but the condition of the fairways was really lacking due to the many bare spots.
Waste of time
Didn’t even get a chance to play. Waited for a cart 30+ min past our tee time. Hole one was backed up by too many groups to count and we were told it’s impossible to start on the back 9. The only positive thing I could say is they (after negotiating) gave us a full refund. I wouldn’t recommend at all
Rain has ruined the fairways
I rarely do reviews but it seemed others may want to know this. Due to the amount of recent rains the fairways are in horrible shape. I don't really know if they can even do anything now to help them. You can tell a lot of the course has drainage issues and water has been standing for some time. Hope fully in a few weeks they can recover their fairways. I play this course regularly and this is the worst condition it has ever been in.
Great layout and easy to score
The only negative is that the course don't drain well after rain and a notation needed for green aeration prior to setting tee time so people will know prior to setting times. Great course overall.
Winter Golf Clouds the review
Only played the front nine and quit due to large slow groups ahead so did not see the wooded 9.
The greens were plugged and sanded, plus had rained this week creating water filled traps. Fairways were rolling and sloped with no real landing areas lost balls on three holes with down the middle drives. I regularly play a mountain course so understand the vagaries of side slopes, but the long holes on the front rewarded being in 2 nd cut high side, at least you didn’t roll towards the creek.
I drove almost 2 hours to get her but won’t do it again.
Enjoyed everything but slow play.
Overcrowded. No starter. No ranger. 5 hrs for 18. Enjoyed the play though.
Blind shot course
This is a hard course to play. Blind shots almost every hole. Wet conditions. Traps. Pond. Creeks. Woods.
Nice view mountain course
it is challenging as lots of undulations and slopes., interesting and fun with nice Mountain View as well.
Wide open course
Great wide open course with challenges on some holes. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and greens are in great shape! Good range with chipping area and even an area to practice bunker shots. Big practice green by the clubhouse.
All around great experience!!
Would play again.
First time playing at Winding Creek. Nice course with a solid layout. Pace of play was good. Great value and will try to play again when I am in the area.
Good time
Course was in great shape. Hard to get a post round beer, snack bar was not manned.
Great Course
This was my second time playing here. Most of the greens were well maintained. The staff was friendly. I will definitely add Winding Creek to my rotation.
