Windy Knoll Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Windy Knoll Golf Club is known among locals as being one of Springfield's best public golf courses. The course was built in 2001, though you would not be able to tell from its traditional links design. It manages to be a classic links golf course while still being a challenge. The site was originally a horse farm and the design incorporates some of the features from the terrain's former use. Water hazards come into play frequently throughout the golf course and there are trees and rough lining the fairways. Golfers will find many risk-reward opportunities on the course, one good example being the par-4 eighth. This hole plays into the prevailing wind and if you miss your drive, you may find yourself in one of the eight bunkers surrounding the undulating green.

Not bad
The geese have torn up the fairways and some parts of certain greens, but other then that not bad.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the geese on the fairways and greens. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
Great Course
Played this course on a Friday at 3pm, teed off solo and didn’t catch up to anyone until the 8th hole, played entire back 9 with nobody in front or behind. Greens rolled true and the rough was thick, must keep the ball in the fairway. 15 mph headwind at times so the course name is fitting. Love playing this course and will play again.

Nice surprise
Excellent greens. The holes themselves are cut as sharply as I've seen on a public course. Nice clean edges. Only negative was the snack bar was closed and we played a morning round. Fun layout.
Hello, JTS58. Thank you for visiting us at Windy Knoll Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Back nine is always an issue. Foursomes taking 30 min at the turn then you have 5 groups backed up on 10. Has happened repeatedly.
Nice course just lacking some course management and amenities. The ranger is there for free golf.

We were delayed by two and a half hours after very heavy rains and wind, but the course was in great shape. We’ll be playing here again.

Windy Knoll
The course really, really needs to get the geese under control. Holes number 1 and number 5 are a mess. Also did not care for the fact that carts are no longer allowed in the parking lot
