The Woodlands Golf Club

About
Woodlands Golf Club, which sits only 30 minutes from St. Louis, is known for having some of the area's best greens. The putting surfaces roll true and hold well on the approach. This public course has garnered a local following thanks to not only its green conditions but also the affordable rates. With a diverse landscape and unique hole designs, it's definitely a shot-maker's layout. You'll probably use every club in your bag on this golf course. A long creek winds across the entire layout, coming into play on a few holes. There are also strategically placed bunkers that lurk along the greensides. Although Woodlands Golf Club is relatively short at just over 6,400 yards from the back tees, it feels much longer thanks to a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic.

People are just doing what they want not playing golf
There is no ambassador or starter people on the course are playing random holes 4 or more balls driving across fairways they are not on it’s just a free for all it took 4 hours to play 10 holes at that point we couldn’t take it any longer we left and went to a nearby course
great golf day on July 1st
One of my favorite courses, it is challenging and fun to play, with varying holes.
I
Did I say I Love this place even more than last owners.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. The Woodlands Golf Club thanks you!
Should Be Better
The first thing I noticed was the golf carts lined up in the parking lot were all dirty, pretty much all had torn seats, and some had other broken parts. Next, the clubhouse was very dated looking, and the snack bar only offered hot dogs for cooked food - and only had 1 available in the middle of the day.
The tee boxes were mostly in fair-poor shape, the fairways were fair-average condition, the rough was patchy, but the greens were in decent shape, only covered in debris most of the time. The course layout is interesting, and pretty tough, with a lot of 90 degree doglegs, some narrow fairways, and some longer par four holes.
My guess is that they are suffering a shortage of workers like everybody else, and that has taken its toll. If they could improve the condition of the course, update the clubhouse and the food choices, and hire some more people all around, it could be a nice course. But for now, I probably won't play again - there are just too many better choices.
Great course with plenty of obstacles
All the rain we had recently made it a little wet but overall in great condition. The total yardage might be shorter but club selection is key.
Nice layout
Still off-season so with that being said the course was in good shape. Nice layout with a variety of holes so not just a driver course. Greens were nice. Sand was rough but again it is the off-season. All in all a very enjoyable place to play
The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. My brother and I had a great time playing the course. The conditions were very good considering we were playing in February. I would recommend others to play this course.
Usually love this course
This time that I played worse condition I have ever seen this course. Hope it was just this time. Greens were not taken care of dew was not cleared off and diseased.
Hi, mvdisser! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. Please know the current conditions are by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to work towards a 5-star experience and we hope to see you back!
Woodlands is always good for a decent round. The greens are coming back nicely after aeration, and not too many ball marks which is incredible here in the the Metro Least. My only complaint is get the water jugs back out on the course! 105 degree feels like temperature made it a death march! I surely hope it’s still not the China virus fear keeping them from putting it out. Newsflash NO ONE ever caught it pushing a button on an igloo cooler in the world!, in the words of Brandon “ C’mon man!”
