Rating Snapshot
About
Located just outside of Columbia, The Windermere Club sits along the banks of the lake that it takes its name from. Pete Dye designed the golf course, crafting a number of memorable holes. It's his only design in the Midlands. No two holes are alike on this challenging layout, so expect to use every club in your bag. The golf course offers a variety of risk-reward opportunities that will appeal to both low and high handicappers. There are also five, and sometimes six, tee boxes on every hole, making the golf course even more appealing for any skill level. The fairways are generous but lined with mature hardwoods and there are strategically placed bunkers to contend with. Golfers at The Windemere Club will also encounter subtle but tricky elevation changes and several lakes and ponds.

Nice course to play
It was worth the drive the course was nice Logan wit's look at wet in some areas but the staff was very printly and the food was awesome the background was the better of the 2 layouts
Good Course for the Money
Great layout and good value for the money. Cart paths are really bad. Overall it’s worth playing. If they put any kind of money into the course it could be excellent
Still Solid
Play here almost every time we visit the area. It’s a great layout and the new greens are actually really nice - rolled great and even held some shots versus the bent they used to have. Pace can be slow; just double tee and fix that easily.
Looking forward to my next visit here
TOUGH BUT FAIR
It was very helpful that we played with a local who knew the course. The lay out is tough with several blind landing areas. Overall the course is in good shape except for the car paths. Green rolled true and the speed was manageable. I would definitely recommend it as a course to play when in Columbia.
Loved the layout of the course. Greens were rolling fast but true. Definitely played longer than expected. Will play again if in the area.
Great layout
The course is challenging and a lot of fun to play. I could be wrong, but seems like they replaced the greens since I last played. I know they are working on drainage, but the course was in really good shape. They really could use cart path work.
Pretty decent
Pretty nice course overall, a little crab grass in the fairways ever now any again but you can’t complain. Plus it was the off-season when I played. Course layout was big, and very nice scenery. Greens were fast but also soft, your ball can certainly rip on these greens. 8/10
Great Layout, Poor Conditions
First time back since right after the greens were redone. Honestly, course could be great if they could do it. Layout is fantastic and don’t feel like there are any “bad holes” just challenging ones. Greens are just not there and fairways and tees are kinda rough. Overall feel a little ripped off I paid $35 for these conditions. Definitely a $25 course. Very bumpy and roll slow. Staff is always very friendly though.
Nice layout. Not good shape.
Nice layout of what most likely used to be the nicest course in town. The greens were nice though just punched. Fairways and rough were in need of some love.
Overall great layout. Very fun shot making.
Nice Layout
The course was in good shape with the exception of the sand traps. They could use some sand and raking.
The pace of play was very good on the front nine but was very slow on the back. This was due to people beginning their round on number 10 due to a small backup on number 1.
Very much improved
I had not played here in a couple years. Was very hesitant paying $38 based on past course conditions. I was very much impressed with improvement tee to green. Will definitely be going back. Have always loved back 9 layout.
Great course and great price
This is my favorite course in Columbia and is a lot of fun to play.
