Northwoods Golf Course

I enjoyed playing, but the course conditions weren't great. There was mud on a few greens, and a good amount of bunkers had rock hard sand in them. My golf cart died about as far away from the clubhouse as it could, but started working after 5 minutes of messing around with it. There were a few beautiful holes which played very well. The course has great potential with some TLC.

Played here several years ago and enjoyed the course and the staff a lot. It wasn't in the best shape then and is in worse condition now. The greens are horrible and the tee boxes are shameful. I am saddened to have to write this honest review but we would not have played there if we knew of the condition. It has excellent potential and is a nice, challenging layout.

Used to be one of the best courses in Columbia. Owners have put not ONE dollar back into course in 15 years. Its now a dog track!!!

Great layout that is fun even with the poor conditions. The greens are fast and roll true so they are a blast to play on.

However, both times I've played I have been a single or double and gotten stuck behind a foursome who just won't allow me to play through.

Course fairways played well:
Winter Green where in ruff shape.
Summer will help. This can be a good course for me.
Easy to walk.
Thanks for a great day

If you can see past the general aesthetics, you will have a good experience. In my first time at northwoods, I was amazed at how fast greens that looked this poor could run. Very interesting layout. The green complexes make it very difficult to be below the hole.

Will be returning next weekend. Great layout.

This course was in worse shape than any other golf course I have ever played. I have played here multiple times through the years and this course progressively gotten worse. We played for 12 dollars and it was not even worth it. Some greens did not have grass, just dirt painted green. The bunkers had no sand and the tee boxes were incredibly shoddy.
Further, the staff was incredibly rude which is surprising considering the poor quality of their golf course. I would not play there again for free.

played the course a few times before a few of the greens are in need of repair... for the price its an OK course to play and close to I-77

I have played Northwoods in the past several times. Mostly in the spring or summer during grass growing season. However, from time we arrived and was greeted by the Pro-shop attendant...very gruffly, I might add, he didn't acknowledge us, other than to say, "where's your confirmation of t-time?" I'd forgot, left it in the truck...he said, "I can't take everyone that comes in here word, and I'm not taking yours". When I produced it, it was like, "oh well, you can play". The fairways were rough (dormant)...the greens had little to no grass and had been painted. It wasn't worth even the reduced price we paid. I doubt, I'll ever go back, because of the unfriendly attitude of the attendant and the condition of the course.

The greens were kind of bad. The cart path needs major repares. The staff is very very friendly and makes you feel right at home, and the experience was very good.

The course was in rough shape, but I only paid $16. It was worth the $16, so I cant complain

Great course for the money. I will be back to play.

Kind of a chewed up course. Granted this was in December. Some really interesting/bizarre holes. A 240 yard par four that had huge moguls hiding bunkers. Never seen anything like that. I would play it again with the golfnow deal except it's not worth the drive from Charlotte. The starter was friendly and helpful.

I always have a great time playing this course. The staff are all efficient, the carts are clean and powerful. The course is picturesque and the lakes are beautiful. The price is right.

I've played this course in the past and have run into the same issues. Our tee time put us behind 3 five-somes who were part of a "dog fight". Play was extremely slow. When the group ahead of us made the turn, my partner and I, seeing that they went to the clubhouse, went on ahead of them. The Ranger came and asked us to let them play through. We were upset and ended up playing the front 9 again. It was rather frustrating and spoiled our game.

First time I played there. I enjoy playing new holes so I had fun. Decent distance from the white tees. Mostly in pretty good shape, but some greens have some brown. Some bunkers are DEEP so be careful. Staff and rangers were extremely nice to speak with.

Have to be some of the worst I've seen. Plenty of bare spots on all greens. Putting on dirt most of the time. Probably about a quarter of them had gouges or holes in them from being washed out from the rain. The 11th hole actually had part of its green gouged out by running water. Fairways were cut, but weren't plush at all. All in all they need to shut down and redo all the greens this winter. If you can play somewhere else. Can't believe they are charging what they are for this.

This course could use a little more maintaining. Grass need to be cut more often. Also they need to setup there tee time better. I had a 2:44 tee time and there were 8 carts at the tee box to tee off. Had to wait 30 minutes before I could tee off. Then it was a slow pace had to wait at every hole to tee off. This made for a very long evening.

Allways like to play there. Good conditions, very friendly atmosphere.

If maintained better, would be one of the best courses in the area to play.
