The Woodlands Golf Club
About
Woodlands Golf Club, which sits only 30 minutes from St. Louis, is known for having some of the area's best greens. The putting surfaces roll true and hold well on the approach. This public course has garnered a local following thanks to not only its green conditions but also the affordable rates. With a diverse landscape and unique hole designs, it's definitely a shot-maker's layout. You'll probably use every club in your bag on this golf course. A long creek winds across the entire layout, coming into play on a few holes. There are also strategically placed bunkers that lurk along the greensides. Although Woodlands Golf Club is relatively short at just over 6,400 yards from the back tees, it feels much longer thanks to a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic.

Clover Eats Balls
Greens good, fairways lean but the clover is horrible! The only way to find the ball is to walk on it! I've been playing 63 years and never lost 7 balls in my life until today!
CLOVER WILL EAT YOUR BALLS!
The greens were very nice they rolled true, fairways were a little lean a lot of hard pans. But just off the fairway the clover was absolutely ridiculous I lost seven balls I've never lost that many in my life and the only way you could find your ball is if you walked on it!!
The clover is out of control in the rough. Nearly impossible to find your ball with the white clover flower.
Not ready for the season
This course has an interesting layout so it could have the potential to be a nice golf course. There is terrain variations which can be challenging for all golf skill levels but fun for any handicap. We played in late April so rains had been heavy. The roughs were overgrown and the fairways worn in spots .
Now the bad, a threesome playing with 2 sets of clubs was one example of lacking on course management and leads to a painfully slow round of golf.( we actually left after 12 holes) . Manage the course better and this could be a real gem ( and great setting for weddings, etc...)
Not totally their fault
They are definately dealing with some damage on the back 9 due to flooding. We ended up leaving on 15 due to the fairways being mostly dirt/mud. There was no beverage cart and when we asked about brats at the turn we were told they didn't really have anything. One of our guys ended up just asking if he could get a hot dog microwaved so he was able to get that at least. A lot of courses are dealing with flood damage but should make up for it with customer service or other amenities.
Floods crushed it
The course has creeks going through it that spit up a ton of sediment onto the course with the weather we have. Some holes fairways have zero grass because they are so covered. It was a cheaper round so worth it to get some swings in but I would not go to keep score
