Fast greens
Very nice course. Really fast greens. They are also a little hard so take that into account on your approach shot. Had good character and would play again. Starter was very friendly but could hardly get anyone else to even speak.
Nice track but 5 hour round
Greens in particular were in really good shape & a few with deceptive slopes. The pace of play was horribly slow though - even for a Friday 1030 tee time. Would recommend based on course quality & maybe I was just unlucky on timing.
Hiden hem!
Excellent condition! Difficult greens. Beautiful flowers everywhere.
Slow play ruined the day
Course was in great shape and the greens were awesome. With that said, I don’t know if I could recommend unless it was a day they could ensure pace of play was maintained. It took us 5 1/2 hours to complete. Every hole had three groups on it. That is how slow it was. There was an Amateur Seniors tournament going on. I don’t mind that, what was a bummer is that the tournament was not listed on their website. Overall a good course, but for the money, they need to keep things moving better.
Nice Course
We enjoyed playing at Windance but, be aware, the greens are like putting on concrete. FAST!!! A tap and the ball is gone! Enjoyed the course and would recommend. The ground was wet everyplace.
Windance Golf Club
This was a nice course located in a nice community. The staff was friendly. Greens were in goof shape and fairways fairly open. Just enough hazards to make the game fun, but also makes it a good challenge, especially for a mid-handicapper like myself. I'd certainly play it again.
Really nice course.
Course is in excellent condition. Pace of play was a little slow but they were very busy. Got rained out on hole 8. Would really have liked to play back 9.
First timers
Enjoyed our 18 holes on this beautiful course Was a pretty windy day but we still had fun enjoying the 70 degrees weather. Will definitely come back.
Beautiful Day
Course is in great shape for December. Pace of play was good considering how crowded it was.
Nicer Experience
Great staff, absurdly attentive. Course was it great shape, just came off of punching the greens, but still fine. Look forward to coming back.
What an awesome course nestled in the middle of nowhere. Extremely challenging but fair. Staff was friendly and helpful.
