Par 3 for Me

I didn't know what to expect when i pulled up and saw nothing but batting cages. They i saw the stadium like driving range (didn't even know there are such things as a sand bunker driving range). I could see my self using this facility, if i live in Richmond, as my practice before a round. I did enjoy the course little wet my day but ultimately we had fun so that works. Also hide your paintball guns in your golf back because once you start moving up the course you'll see in the woods that they have plenty of fortresses to defend your self. This place is the Jack of all sporting trades....

A little disappointing....

I have been playing Windy Hill for many years even as a 3 handicap because it's fun! What is it fun is how horrible the fairways are right now! I really hope that the new ownership puts some effort into fixing these because this is a great course and I am still recommending it!

Par 3 course

Perfect course for the short game. No major or minor complaints. Just bring your A game.

Great Course!!

It is amazing that I can come to Windy Hill anytime and always leave happy! It's not because it is the most elegant or beautiful course in the area But because it's actually a fun course to play!

What a mess!!

I usually love playing this course but not today! The fairways are just terrible as they are not enforcing their cart path only Rule. The greens were pretty good and the tees were fine but anything in between was a mess!

Great course for value

Went for a quick 9 holes on the par 3, ended up staying to play the 9 hole lake course as well.
Greens were in EXCELLENT shape. Especially for how wet it has been lately.

For the price, this was the best day of golf I have ever had.

Deserves a play

I really liked the layout and elevation changes. I have some walking issues and the cart path only requirement made it difficult even though I had a cart. The biggest disappointment for me was that the greens were wet and never whisked even when I started at 11 am and no rain. Would be willing to try again on a dry day and see how greens were cared for.

Chaotic play

Appears they do not adhere to tee times nor to players cutting in from the Par 3 course. Sprinkler was on when we got to first tee so had to tee off from fairway. Lots of muddy holes and bare spots. But good value for 9 holes. You get what you pay for.

Staff concerns?

In recent years, I have usually had good times and experiences on the 9 hole lake course. As a moderate skilled player, the relatively short and open fairways have been fun to play. We have usually been able to find good deals and bargains using golf now and other on line discounts. Unfortunately, today I encountered an extremely unfriendly staff member in the pro shop. Her rudeness and overall her lack of professionalism will likely keep me away for some time. Disappointing experience.

Best shape in a while!!!

I have been playing this course for around four years now since I moved here from Chicago and I can honestly say the greens have never looked so good! the fairways are really scruffy but if they would just mow them this could be one of the nicest courses in the area actually!

Rain out

Rained last 24 hours. Called the golf course and they said they were open but you’d have to walk it and boots would be needed.
Sent cancellation to GolfNow 90 minutes before reserved time.
And now I get charged and get a survey. Very sad that your promises don’t match your actions.
