Great value
One of the better layouts in New England. Conditions are usually fine and the greens roll true, but not overly fast. For some reason this course gets little play, which is great because you can expect a 3 1/2-4 hour round most times. Price is right and it’s a test of golf. Highly recommended.
Windham Country Club offers challenges
Five rounds in 4 days has come to an end. Learned along the way. Green placement, difficulty to hold, relatively small size, and strategically placed natural and man-made hazards gives you the challenge that makes that shorter hole a boost. I guess the only negative to speak of is if you miss the fairway, the rough is just deep enough that it swallows the ball making it difficult to find. lengthens the time need to play the round. While hitting the fairway shouldn't be a concern , the contour of the fairway line cut may give you the impression that that blind tee shot would land clear , only to find the fairway bend left you off line.
Only tips i would give is to keep your driver in the bag, use a soft ball to spin on the green and, don't forget to stop at Mulligan's after your round, the staff is very friendly.
course condition not great
Greens in great shape but the fairway is the worst. Crabgrass, bare spots, just not great, not even good. I haven't played here in a couple of years but the conditions have fallen off. You were better off hitting out of the rough.
Windham CC Quality and Value
I am a mid-handicap bogey golfer I played the course this morning as I have for the last 20 years on Sunday mornings and am always impressed with the greens, conditions of the fairways, attention to course detail and overall challenge and great entertainment value that WCC offers. This course is very challenging, many holes that are par-able and a handful that you can birdie. It makes for a terrific round for average and above average handicap golfers who prefer target golf and variety of approaches and provides thoughtful greens. There are no blind shots, only a few doglegs, and enticing par 3’s. The staff are professional and the best in the business. Jay and Bob, and Joann embody the company culture and give me reason to return weekly. You will absolutely love this course and atmosphere when you play there.
Decent course but won’t play again
Not sure if we played on a bad day, but the conditions were not very good. The greens were covered in divots and most of the fairways were not in good shape. A few very easy holes and a few very difficult holes. Played the back tees but there’s a lot of holes you have to hit an iron off the tee. Tee boxes were uneven and in bad shape as well.
Mixed bag
The staff are wonderful, gracious, polite, and welcoming. Very generous fairways which off set issues of blind shots. Fair warning that the practice green is fast, but the course greens are slow. Loved the grilling shack and the quality of the food..
The downside. Started at 11:06 and finished at 4:02. According to the starter there was a group of 40 who went off for a tournament and we were the second group off behind them. At one time there were 4 groups on one tee. Are you kidding......someone needs to allow more time for the big group to get around, ranger the big group, or cancel afternoon tee times.
Read the reviews—slow play shows up in almost all comments. This is fixable and more profitable, if fixed, then getting one nd drones like me. A Wes starter/ranger once told me that the first group off sets the pace for the day. Most courses do not Ranger the early morning groups which then creates the backup.
Loved everything about the course except pace.
A Little Disappointing
I hadn't played Windham in roughly a decade, and I remembered liking it. But I'm not sure why. The only exceptional green was the putting green. The course greens varied from decent to terrible. Sometimes it was just a bad section, but a couple greens were lousy all over. Also, too many blind shots. I prefer there be no blind shots. Windham has a couple blind shots and a handful of semi-blind shots. I hit a great drive down the left side on 7, or so I thought. It came to rest in the right rough at the edge of a bunker. Nearly unplayable!
I wish I could recommend Windham, as I'm a fan of Bill Flynn and Far Corner. But not this summer. Not at full price.
Very interesting course
Course layout is great, challenging yet very playable. Narrow fairways, your shots need to be accurate. Pace of play was slow, course was packed & inexperienced players affected time. Overall, nice course.
It was very quiet today we played 18 in 3hrs which was great. We drove from Boston to try this course and we def loved it. I usually play in stow because of the great golf now prices. But I'm going to switch up if the value continue and it's a much better course.
The course was in much better shape when I played it few years back.
Great layout. Tees need som work. Greens were ok. But layout is awesome!
Negative experience
First time playing now here. The course has many elevation changes and pretty tight. Not very forgiving. The pace of play was extremely slow. 2hrs and 45 minutes to play 9 holes. There was a back up on every hole. I had to leave after the 15th. Wasn’t my favorite course. IF I come back maybe I’ll try a weekday.
greening up nicely
still some casual water and mud but coming along .
Great course
Definitely one to add to your list. Some wet spots this time but still in great shape.
Good course for the money
The course was wet as to be expected. Overall conditions were good for the beginning of the season. Looking forward to playing again this year.
Truly a wonderful course
I almost decided not to go there after reading so many negative reviews. I am still trying to understand why after having played there this afternoon. Super friendly staff and local players. I truly enjoyed the course very scenic holes, long and narrow but always fair. The tee box were absolutely fine. Water comes into play on multiple holes and makes this course challenging and super fun. I will go back for sure as this course deserves a lot of great reviews enjoy and play there ignore the bad reviews from the past.
Thank you as I had a great time.
Slow play and rude members
I usually play this course 4 times per month. It’s a great value and pace of play is usually excellent. This time they had a league and playing just 7 holes took us 2.5 hours. We tried to skip a few holes to get past the back up. After attempting this, a group of members said they are playing a tournament and we can’t skip any holes. I don’t mind this being explained by staff, not by a member. I am a paying customer and play golf around 3 times per week. I will attempt this round one more time, if it happens again I will play else where.
