About
Northwoods Golf Club is one of the Columbia area's premier public courses. P.B. Dye, son of renowned course architect Pete Dye, designed the layout, incorporating some of his father's signature features. The golf course is player friendly enough to appeal to any skill level but there are some challenges in store as well. Mature trees line most of the fairways and there are a few strategically placed bunkers that come into play. You won't come across much water on this golf course and it's not terribly long either. It's gentle enough for beginners to approach with confidence. The golf course's signature hole is the par-4 14th, which features the famous Dye railroad ties bordering a lake that hugs the bunkered green. Northwoods G.C. also offers a practice facility with a lighted driving range and putting green.

Course in good condition with the rain
Had a nice quiet outing where not a lot of people showed up in the morning due to rain predictions which never materialized. So I was able to get out earlier than my assigned tee time and play as a single with no pressure behing me and no one ahead of me. Course was in pretty good shape from all the rain we have had though some greens were a bit rough. All in all just had a quiet relaxing round working on my swing and dropping a few extra balls now and then when the swing did not feel right.
Terrible
I have played this course multiple times. The conditions are usually average, not bad but not great. Today was average. However, I have never experienced such bad customer service nor pace of play. We waited for two full groups to tee off after every shot. It took 3 hours to play 9 holes. At the turn, I politely asked if something was going on and if we could get a rain check for the back 9. The staff acted as if I was not there and could care less what anyone brought to their attention. For a course that is 10-15 minutes down the road from my home, it is a shame that I will never return.
Course in good condition given all the hot weather
Took a chance to play in 94 degree heat and turned out better than I thought. The course was in very good condition and the playing pressure was mostly light around the course. We let a couple of single players through as they caught up but passed by use (two some) quickly so we had little golfing pressure from behind and never had to wait to tee off on any of the holes.
Course soggy from rain but mostly in good shape
Had a good outing with little golf pressure. Maybe due to the rains over the weekend so yes the sand traps had water and there were muddy spots but all in all 80% of the course was in very good shape (thanks to the rain). Play was a bit slow due to a foursome ahead of me so I jumped a hole on the back nine and had nobody ahead or behind me the rest of the round.
Lot of potential
Greens and fairways were fantastic.
If the tee boxes were level and had grass the experience would have been a lot better. Fairways were good but the rough in a lot of cases was sand not long grass
Course staff was kind and layout was interesting.
Cart paths were horrible. Some of the worst I’ve experienced.
They seem to be doing a lot right and would like to play again in the future.

Nobody on the Course this past Monday!
Wow, what a treat it was to show up at this fairly busy public course at 11am and see a parking lot not even one third full! I basically had "the course to myself" playing as a single with no one in front of me or behind me. People said maybe golfers were turned off coming given they were irrigating several fairways (which I easiy worked around) and the greens were recently aerated so they were a bit bumpy from all the plug holes. But all in all the course was in great shape. Just one of those lucky days timing wise.
Definitely worth a play
Played this course based on a hot deal.
Good fairways, great greens, decent tee boxes. Cart paths are pretty rough, but great course to play.
Great time
Greens just aerated but the course was in great condition. Narrow course at times but a lot of fun
It was excellenet.

SC Gem
Made a trek down South to escape the Midwest weather and catch a practice round of the Masters. Nice course, great layout, had rained quite a bit so not fair to comment on the upkeep of the course. Would definitely play if back in SC.. Definitely the nicest of the Columbia area courses.
First Time
Decent course, friendly staff but very rushed play. Tee times not spaced out, felt rushed at every hole on a Thursday afternoon….
