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.

Windermere was disappointing.
Grass on tee boxes was too long, and the greens were the most bouncy and in worst condition I have seen. The layout is very nice but looks like it’s has been poorly taken care of.
Nice layout
The practice green was nice and fast but the greens on the course were inconsistent mostly slow. Course was very dry and not in good condition. Greens were punched and course gave no mention that they were.
Same story
Same old story in Columbia SC! NO GRASS! NO GRASS! NO GRASS! Weeds we're coming in nicely though...Greens we're super bouncy, and I paid $49 on a Monday. Guys I know the demand is high for Golf right now but really? At best this is a $30 course for the conditions right now, which is a shame because it's a great layout and fun design.
Course is great
Staff at this course was great Layout on the back was beautiful 9 holes Front 9 was little wet Can't wait to come back and play this course again
Disappointing
Played this course for the last time probably due to the poor conditions that haven’t changed in several years! Have played the course with a group of guys several times over the last 8-years but we skipped it the last two years due to condition! Unfortunately it has not improved at all. Our group of 24 wont be returning. It’s like they don’t even use blowers or rakes! It’s a shame with the track being such a good one!
Great scenery. Beautiful course. Great golf.
The course was beautiful and a bit difficult with the deep bunkers. Greens were very fast but beautifully maintained. The workers as well as others on the course were extremely helpful and nice. If you want to go to a beautiful place with good people for a great price this is the place to go. I will be going back very soon.
Pleasantly surprised!
Loved the course layout....interesting use of topography....sight lines were very good ....look forward to playing again during the peak grass season!
Apt Name, windy day at Windemere
As luck would have, it the day we picked to play was windy. Windy in 20-25mph. Guess what, the course played very well as almost every hole was protected from the wind. All and all a good course that would be great with a little more talc. Greens were perfect.
Great set up!!
the course has great set up and pretty nice conditions given the ridiculous amounts of rain SC has gotten lately.
Greens are looking good!
Greens were fantastic for this time of the year. Also, continue with the work on the fairways their looking good!!
