What Happened???

Having not played here in a long time I was really disappointed in the overall condition of the facility. Driving range was closed, greens were in sad shape and it looked as if they have done zero upkeep or upgrades of the dining/snack bar area. Overall, extremely disappointed considering this used to be a very nice place to play.

Great track,,but....

Love the layout of this course but the greens had been recently punched and a temporary green on the 3rd hole kinda ruins it for you.Also when we were checking in the group behind us asked what the going rate was and it was 5 dollars cheaper than our Golfnow price.

Good course, good condition, but...

Good course, good condition. fairways were very nice and well maintained. However, the greens had recently been punched and sanded and hole number 3 green was in process of being rebuilt. Had to play to small temp green. These conditions here not listed on GolfNow nor did the clubhouse staff say anything when I checked in. There was no discount in greens fees. Combination of the two left me a little unsatisfied.

Not bad at a cheap price, but not worth full price.

This course is not bad at a discounted price, but it's regular price is way above its quality! Only so - so...

Always pleased with Windsor Parke. Fairways were excellent and most of the greens had a good role. Will definitely be back more often.

The course is in good condition but pace of pay was ridiculously slow.

I congratulate the maintenance crew for getting the course in the best condition I've seen in years however the pace of play, especially for a Thursday was ridiculous. There were 3 open holes in front of the group immediately ahead of us and the ranger never asked them to speed up or invited us to play through.

Overpriced

I have been looking forward to playing Windsor and was able to play it last week. For the price, I was expecting a lot more. The greens were scathed, the grass on many of the tees was non existent, and many of the bunkers had inconsistencies in their sand. It just was not conditioned at all. It was a good layour and provided many tee options. The staff was first rate and it did give you that up-scale feal. But the course was in poor condition. Save your money and play elsewhere.

I played Windsor again on Friday and will say that after the Spring rains, the greens were in much better condition. Also, they are very friendly to juniors as they let my nephew play for free. Nice touch. The course is still way too expensive. But a drive out of east Jacksonville to less expensive course would cost $10 anyway. Long story short, Windsor has its pluses and minuses. Not a bad trek either way.

Rudest people I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with

It's a true shame and disgrace that this place is even still around. The staff here was rude to the point that it turned my family off to the game of golf until we played the amazing TPC Sawgrass courses. The starters were condescending, and down right horrible. We received no help with our clubs and had to deal with them in the pouring rain while the staff watched us. It makes me sick to think this place is still in business. It is a disgrace to the game we all love so much.

Great course, excellent value

I played as a single. have to book on GolfNow as a single. Cant do it at the course. Rented clubs ($35) Nike. Very interesting course. Had guide book which they charge $1.99 but if you are nice they will give it to you. Book is needed as there are hazards/water not seen from the tee or fairway. First time out this year. Found most of the water, most of the time. I am a mid 90's golfer. Warning: the last 4 holes are the "teeth " of the course.
I will definitely go back.
Note: the cart girl only carries beverages and bars no sandwiches. These can be gotten at the clubhouse on the turn.

Great Course

Overall, this was a pretty good course. The pace of play was good. The Marshall was riding around and making sure everyone was on schedule.

The front nine was not challenging at all. However, the back nine was pretty challenging. Nice bang for your money...
