Winding River Golf Club

Great course.

But pin placements were brutal today.

Lipped out on an uphill 3 footer and it came back towards me and rolled all the way off the green. Only complaint would be that I don’t think the greens should be that fast with the slopes they have. But love everything else about it.

Nice challenging course. Greens are tough to putt if you’re in the wrong spot. Will play again. Played the white except in the par 3’s where I played the green tees. That makes total yardage just us see 5800. Just right for seniors, I’m 74. Shot 90, because I 3-putted 5 greens.

One improvement wood be to redo pave the cart paths. It would really enhance the course a lot.

Unbelievable course for the hot deal price of $21. Regular price at $38ish is fine. Course is in pretty good shape, fun medium length track. Cool signature hole with an old barn on it.

Course was in great shape. Staff is always pleasant and welcoming. Have a wonderful day.

Played here multiple times and in my opinion this course is in fantastic shape. We always have a great time playing here.

We had a great time. Course is in fantastic condition.

The course is in magnificent shape. The greens are lush like a carpet but fast, which is tough to pull off. Some courses make their greens fast by cutting them too short, but these must have been built just right. The layout has a lot of different holes, some elevation changes, some doglegs, some short and some long. A few holes are tight, especially from the white tees, but most have enough width to be fair. Most holes are tree-lined, but not too narrow. It was our first time playing here and we lost a couple balls just from unfamiliarity with the course: didn’t know that if the ball ran too far over that hill, it was in the weeds and gone. There aren’t too many blind shots and no forced carries. A number of holes have no sand traps, but then other holes have several. Mostly the greens are not guarded by sand traps, but rather by mounding. There are ponds on the course but they rarely come into play. The holes are not jammed too close together and so other players are not in your consciousness too much. The property is NOT lined by houses, so you never have that feeling that you’re playing in someone’s back yard. I would have to agree that a couple of the greens have a little too much slope for the speed of the greens, so that it is impossible to leave a putt by the hole if you are putting downhill. That was especially true on #9 and #10. On 9 I saw my playing partner tap a putt and it went 15 feet past the hole, so I hit my putt half as hard—and it went 15 feet past the hole! The only other criticism I would have is that the senior tees are too short (5000 yards). On several holes the senior tees were 100 yards in front of the men’s tees. I can’t handle a 400-yard par 4, but I don’t need it to be 280 either. So I played some white tees and some green. I wish that there were a set of tees that came to between 5400 and 5600, or some combo tee set on the card. On a Thursday morning the course was busy, but we still played in 4 hours. The greens fee was reasonable, especially during the week and the senior discount was nice.

The course was busy and it took 2:30 to play the front nine which is unacceptable. Thankfully, several groups quit after 9 hokes and it took our foursome 1:55 to play the back. We like the layout of most of the course but the greens have a lot of pitch and 15 has so much that is is VERY DIFFICULT to putt or chip and keep it from rolling off the green if you are above the hole. I got lucky and 🐦 it, but if my three footer from above the hole didn't go in it would've rolled off the green....as my playing partner found out! Friendly staff.

This course was in the best shape of any one I have played this year. It is a fun and challenging course and we had a blast. This is a must play if you haven’t yet!

This course is gorgeous and in great shape. Always fun playing here.

Course was in great shape for this time of year. Very senior friendly.

We had the best of time. I was amazed and pleased that leaves on the ground didn’t play a factor in our round. Kudos to the grounds crew for making sure most of the course was leafless. We always love playing this course.

This course has to be in the best shape of any course I have played this year. I was very impressed. Even with fall in full swing, you can tell they have kept up on the leaves. We lost only a couple of balls due to leaves. I would definitely recommend this course!!

This course was in the best shape of any one I have played this year. This is probably my fav course to play. This layout and greens were challenging yet very fun. We had an absolute blast playing this course. Definitely am going to a lot next year.
