Championship Course at Crosswinds Golf Club

I decided to play a quick nine on the par-three course this past Sunday afternoon, assuming it might be a little quieter later in the day. Unfortunately, I was wrong—seems like a lot of others had the same idea.

Even though I had a scheduled tee time, there was a large crowd of walk-ups when I arrived, making it feel like booking online didn’t matter much. I ended up stuck behind three foursomes, all of whom were Korean players. The pace of play was, honestly, a major issue. While everyone deserves the chance to enjoy their round, courtesy and basic course etiquette go a long way. Unfortunately, there was a lack of consideration shown to other players that afternoon—golf carts were being driven everywhere, players were running across greens, and multiple groups skipped ahead without regard for tee times or those waiting patiently.

It took over two hours and twenty minutes to finish nine holes on a par-three course where the longest hole is around 150 yards. That’s easily the longest round I’ve ever played on this track. At one point, I counted at least five other single players stacked up behind me, creating a frustrating bottleneck. The staff may need to reassess how tee times are enforced and how walk-up traffic is managed, especially during peak hours.

That said, the course itself was in decent condition. A few greens are starting to show signs of Poa annua creeping in but that’s understandable for a par-three layout that likely takes second priority behind the main course. Still, the turf was playable, and the weather was absolutely perfect.

All in all, it wasn’t the relaxing round I had hoped for. The slow pace and lack of etiquette took away from what could have been an enjoyable afternoon. While I appreciate the facility and have had better experiences here in the past, I’ll probably take a break from this course for a while and explore some other options in the area with better pace management.

Love this course generally but the greens were not good which made putting total guess work

Funny when I heard management of Crosswinds acquired Henderson I was optimistic we would have 2 great courses. Sadly Crosswinds has deteriorated sharply - greens were horrible, fairways barely an advantage to rough, tees are are a disgusting mess. We got the supposed Hot Deal on Golf Now but course is a $25 course at best. All they have done is raise prices, standards have gone down the toilet. Nice structure at the driving range - good thing cause at this pace that may be what this course becomes.

Staff was friendly. The course layout was good. The greens were poor.. Very bumpy. As putts slowed down there was no telling which way they will go. . The last time I played here the greens were in similar shape.. Disappointing…

Course is horrible shape. Greens were some of the worst I’ve seen. Perfect weather helped make this a great day but the course was not what I expected from Georgia in April. My rental clubs also had duplicate irons. The coolers full of cold water around the course were full of rainwater and mildew (and no drinking water). Paid $120 with rental clubs. Prob should’ve paid $20.

Course is consistently well maintained. Located near the Savannah Airport. Airplanes flying nearby is a benefit. Airplane noise is not an issue. Also located near hotels and restaurants. Driving range now has a canopy so sun, heat, and rain no longer an issue.

Ended up leaving after 11 holes. Way too slow. Watched the group in front of us all hit their tee balls on every hole.
