Winding Creek Golf Club
Played On 07/18/2019Fantastic value
Winding Creek is one of the best values around. The course is not very long, but has real teeth if you’re not accurate off the tee. Course conditions are very good, other than the rash of ball marks on the greens which seem to be more prevalent than ever this year.
The course is pretty hilly, so walkers will get a good workout. Tee boxes are typically pretty close to the previous greens,
This is one of my favorite tracks in the area because of the challenges it provides at a reasonable price.
Winding Creek Golf Club

I play Winding Creek pretty regularly -- almost every week. The course is consistently in very good shape, minus the unrepaired ball marks left behind by careless people. The fairways are lush and the rough is challenging, but reasonably playable. Blind approach shots are the biggest nuisance of the course. There are five holes where you can't see the green at all, unless you're a gigantic hitter.
Highlights of the course are consistent elevation changes. You will have every lie imaginable during your round. The course offers up a handful of pretty simple tee shots, paired with an equal number of extremely challenging ones. When the wind picks up, club selection is very tough. The course isn't very long overall, but has a couple of monster holes: an all-carry, 200+ yd par 3 over water, and an almost 600 yd, uphill, dogleg left par 5.
If you're going to play this course, bring your A game, and you'll be fine. Otherwise, bring a dozen balls, as this course will eat them up.
Lincoln Trail Golf Course
Played On 07/27/2018Quaint yet challenging
Lincoln Trail is a shot maker's paradise. It's moderate length and tight approaches provide a fair test of shotmaking skill. Some of the approaches are so tightly guarded by mature hardwoods, it really rattles the nerves. The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. The Kentucky bluegrass rough was punishing, but reasonable. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.
