Worst course I’ve ever played
Although the people in the clubhouse were nice, and the clubhouse facilities were nice, I have never seen a course in worse condition. The fairways were atrocious, and as much a hazard is anything else, The rough was unplayable, and the bball was difficult to find slowing rhe 9 hole pace to 3 hours! The sand traps were horrid, and most of them filled with water. The greens were unforgettable, shaggy long, slow, differing speeds in different areas and about a third of all the green surfaces was gone due to some sort of problem with I don’t know what. I will never play that course again, and I would never recommend it to a friend.
Good deal with Golf Now Hot Deal
I got a last-minute hot deal to play this course. Compared to last summer, It is in good condition but some greens and fairways are still very patchy with what appears to be some sort of disease. The roughs were very rough with way too much grass clippings from recent mowing and still too high for an average course, with little or no transition from the fairway to heavy rough..it was difficult to find your ball even when it was right in front of you and only 2’-3’ off fairway! Overall the greens, fairways and tee boxes weren’t too bad for the price paid ($24/18 holes) but this course still needs attention.

Winding Cowpatch
This course continues to outdo itself year after year with some of the worst fairways in the city. In addition to fairway shape, several diseased greens in very bad shape across course. The management company has pretty much given up at this point….

This place has gone downhill
I used to love playing here but now it’s just a cow pasture. One of the worst courses I’ve ever played condition-wise. Really bad shape. Greens are terrible. It’s unfortunate because the layout has potential and it used to be in a lot better shape.

Love the layout, hate the greens
This would be a nice municipal course if they could just get the greens in shape. The layout is nice, lots of different types of holes with and without water. Just wish the greens were in better shape.

Poor Conditions
Greens were dead/burnt/covered in weeds. Conditions were bad last year and have not improved since. No warning or mention of how poor conditions the course is in. Much better golf for same price in surrounding area.

Overall, good.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Driving range used floating golf balls. Irons only. Pace was a little slow, but that was directly related to the VERY windy conditions. Greens had blotchy spots, making it tough to putt. Would recommend to friends when greens are healed.

Winding Ridge
The course needs a lot of work, the fairways were in bad shape as well as the greens.
That area of Marion County had a lot rain, I’m sure the course will be up to par by mid season.

Thank you for playing Winding Ridge Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Damaged greens and fairways
It appears the course has not recovered from last year’s turf issues. For the higher green fees I would expect better course maintenance.

Conditions need to Improve
Multiple greens had damage to the greens from last year, tee boxes need work, and there isn't a range here. I would come back to check it out during the summer to see if it improves, but they have a lot of work to do until I would.

Extremely rude owner and the course is not well maintained. Busted sprinkler heads all over the course horrible design idea for driving range. Used to be good under different management but really horrible last time there
Course has really gone downhill
Third or fourth time playing here. Used to love it here, but conditions and upkeep has really diminished. Poor markers around sand trips to indicate, unkept tee boxes, and the greens are atrocious! Due to all the black tar/cracked conditions on the green, the pin locations are right up front or in random valleys between two hills on the green. Some placements felt like putt putt trick hole courses. Disappointed how much this place has been neglected
