Northwoods Golf Course

I had a 7 am tee time on a Sunday morning and when I showed up the place was empty and no one was there. I didn't end up getting off #1 until around 7:45. guy at the front desk was nice, and the practice was was in pretty good shape. There are many interesting holes, ex #2 100 par 3 from the blues, and generally speaking there are no two holes here that are the same. The front 9 was pretty well kept but the back 9 wasn't in nearly as good of shape. There's no reason that a tee box shouldn't be cut on a Sunday morning (par 3 #11). This place is either understaffed or just doesn't care, but it was pretty crowded when I left around noon. Some bunkers weren't raked and barely edged, and most bunkers had sand that was so hard they were unplayable. Pace of play was good, couple groups let us play through. Lots of cool holes, but could definitely be kept a lot better.

First time playing this course fairways need overseed and greens were slow. The course has a good layout and starter and ALL STAFF were friendly They even thank me for playing . Course could be a gem but needs work

great course even after all the rain the course played great good staff Order your food before you finish playing your game (phone in order from cell)

From a beginner golfer to an expert player, The Spur at Northwoods has something for everyone. With new ownership and revitalized facilities, this Columbia staple stands on its own compared to all local daily fee courses. The greens and bunkers are first class, with the fairways and rough in decent shape considering the amount of rain endured. The quality of The Spur remains steadily on the rise. Looking forward to many rounds here this golf season!

This is a great course. The layout is good and there is plenty of room to be a little wild off the tee. For the price, you can't beat it.

One of the best layouts in South Carolina. Would recommend to a friend.

The course was in good shape really enjoyed my round.

First time playing and found the course to be challenging and in great shape. Course was still wet from all the rain but otherwise in real good shape. Employees were very friendly and accommodating.

The course was very wet as a result it did not play well. Really need to plat again when it is drier.

Fairways are in ok conditions, greens are definetely better than when previous management, impress with bunkers having real sand for a change but all around is in serious need of a total makeover, bare spots are visible all around the fairways, cart paths are in very bad shape but if you feel like fining and tuning your swing come play it, not bad at all.

Staff is very unfriendly. A smile or how are you, would be nice.

Play here 4-5 times a year, best shape it's been in years...great course for the $ Hats off to the staff here

They are doing a tremendous job getting this course back up to speed. It is in great condition! Someone was working on every hole, bunkers, cutting the rough, working on greens, ust overall in great shape! Their doing a wonderful job with bringing this course back around. If you haven't played here in awhile you will be pleasantly surprised with the conditions!

The fairways and greens were very challenging. A wide open fairway would have a few hills and maybe a sandbox or two. And the green didn't read like you thought. Instead of left it really was right. A fairway that look like you could drive it, was longer than first thought. Great course for any level of play. Also going out of bounds or the second cut can make this one even more challenging.

Course has improved a lot in the 6 month to a year they are still working on some sand traps and some greens but still very playable

Northwoods is on the way back! The improvements at this course are making a difference. On a Friday morning in August, there were 10-15 workers mowing, rebuilding bunkers, sodding greens, and taking care of the overall appearance. Thanks.

The course is the best value in the midlands. The Spur has some very interesting holes. The back 9 is especially nice.

The course has come a long way in the last year. One of my favorites because close to downtown.

Course continues to improve. Fairways are excellent, rough is good. Bunkers, while some are still being reworked, are excellent. Greens were a bit slow, but they are trying to get them to really come in, which has been no easy task. Overall, this is a great value, and gets better each time we play.

Played the course for the first time in several years. When I played this course the last time I said to myself I would not play here anymore but major changes have take place and the course is actually in good shape. Greens and bunkers have been reworked, both are in good shape. The fairways are also in good shape.
