Winding Hills Golf Club

Winding Hills is a beautifully maintained course with surprising difficulty even though basically a Par 3 course. There are 3 or 4 par 4 holes, but every hole has it's own challenges for even the scratch players. We love playing Winding Hills when we need to work on our short game as there is plenty opportunity to do just that! The greens are very well designed and very well taken care of, and did I mention challenging?

great course. good pace of play. can be challenging. well manicured. will definitely play there again and again.

Greens are extremely fast and unforgiving. The pin placements were impossible to get to on quite a few holes with potential landing areas like 5 feet in diameter. Some of the greens are simply impossible to hold. I hit one green and landed my tee shot about 3/4 deep and far left side and I ended up off the green on the front right about 80 feet from my divot. 18th hole my tee shot in the middle of the green left side and ended up off the green short left. It's not like I spin the ball like the pros that I could get an 8 iron to come back 50 feet! You have to miss in the right places to have a chance of getting up and down. If you miss in the wrong place on most of these greens, having the ball on the green within 15 feet of the hole after a chip or pitch is a great accomplishment with a two putt bogey a moral victory. You can count on several double bogeys on this course if you're playing it for the first time. It is in great shape and very pretty! I found some of the pin placements very unfair with less than 10 feet to the fringe on two sides of the hole sitting and everything falling away from it on all sides. The only way to get the ball close to the pin on some of the holes was to miss the green on the correct side in the long grass that would hold the ball leaving an impossible chip. One would have to play this course several times to figure out where the misses are with specific pin placements. A miss right on the fourth hole is an impossible par. Chip in for birdie or take a 5 and move on because your second shot will not be on the green from that side. I don't think some of the pin placements would be approved by the USGA for US Open play personally.

Winding Hills is a great course for beginners. I've only just started golfing this summer but this course's ease of access and use have made my outings very pleasant. The fact that the holes are shorter make it perfect for a beginner like myself. All of the vegetation force me to fine tune my aim or risk losing my ball.

A little shorter than a standard executive course but dont let that fool you into thinking its easy. Many tough greens and fairly quick to boot. Tight track with little room to error. That said its a pretty track with much fun to have.

Would definitely go and play again . What a beautiful layout and a challenge

Great course to play if you're looking for a quick 18, looking to work on Par 3's, or just beginning. Wish it had a little more length, but loved playing it.

I like Winding Hills very much...short and putter challenging. No flat tees. Pretty course, lots of trees.. Since I am a beginner I joined the ladies golf league and we play once a week, then I will go again for practice during the week. I've learned to chip on this course...rarely use a driver.

always a challenge - greens are tough - stay below the hole

Great golf course!
Difficult putting, great for your short game.
Ranger very friendly.

I enjoyed this course alot. I got a deal at golfnow.com for about 20 bucks per person.

The few par 4's were good practice.

The course is very short, some holes are less then 100 yards, difficult putting greens make if somewhat challengeing.

If you're looking for a regular 18-hole play, you would regret so much for coming to this golf course. This course does not have any par-5 holes. It also has only two or three par-4 holes throughout the 18-hole play. The rest of the holes are all short par-3 holes. Gosh! I was so furious for reserving the tee time at this course not knowing these facts. Maybe it was my fault by not being extra careful, but those of you who thrives to drive the ball far and away, please be aware that this course is only good for Sand Wedge practices throughout the 18-hole play. As for the course itself, it is maintained fairly and the starter is friendly. However, the ranger is unfriendly and quite demending. At this point of my age and social standing, I would expected to be asked kindly in stead of being ordered by a ranger. Ouch... All in all, what a terrible experience I had on my precious Saturday afternoon.

Nice little course kept really nice and very pretty. About an hour from me so I wouldn't go often, but I would go back as the rate on golf now was very reasonable

This course is great for ladies and players who enjoyes par 3 hole and putting. Every green is challanging and en

Winding Hills lives up to its' name. You play golf thru the trees and hills and this is not just a little chip and putt course. I thoroughly enjoyed my round. Yes, most holes are short so it's a good short iron practice (which I need) and the greens are well maintained and have a lot of contouring.. they aren't flat as a pancake but are tricky (but fair except for the one where the pin was way in the back on a little shelf).

It's a very good course and it lets you tone up your short game. Makes using my irons easier.

Keep your driver at home. Took it out 3 times, but didn't need to. Greens are tough and challenging, and kept very nice! The course is beautiful! Lots of elevation changes. You can play all 18 in 3 hours or less.

very beautiful and enjoyable executive course.
Great place to practice short iron play.

We had a great time playing this course. It's not easy by any means, but it's got a unique layout and beautiful scenery. Make sure you bring some bug spray!
