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.

Fun Course
Fun course, decently maintained. Fun greens a little rough though. Great price.
worth the Golfnow rate but not full price.
i played this course 2 years ago and it was in really poor shape. Playing Saturday 4/13/13, the course itself was in better shape. Greens on a scale of 1-10 were a 7 so in good shape.
However, riding on the cart path was like bumper cars. they really need to invest some money and level them out over all the tree roots.
several holes were really beautiful with the mature Azealas in bloom. I would recommend but not at their usual high price.
Course layout is fun and challenging.
Course layout is fun with both open and challenging tee shots. Greens were hard as with this time of year, but were rolling good. Course conditions were alot better than they were last year, so look forward to playing there again later this spring. Only bad comment were the range balls were losy. They were old and dirty (looked like they came from bottom of a muddy pond.
Course was in poor condition
Really great layout, but just in poor condition. Planned on playing 36, left after 18. It was really cheap though
course review
If you like playing behind fivesomes and very very slow play and zero golf etiquette, then this is the course for you. Every green had divots, previous players don't bother to fix. But, I thought the course was in decent shape despite the other downers mentioned.
The course needs a lot of attention
Not in very good shape around the edges. Greens were ok. Of all the choices this would be near the bottom
