About

Average golfer. Tendency to spray it trying to do to much with the ball. Better off aiming for the middle of the green and seeing what happens.

Swing Titleist CB's, Mack Daddy 2 wedges.

Feast Your Eyes on Blind Tee Shots

I played Steele Creek Canyon course (9 holes) in a scramble (which accounts for the slow play) and we shot E and honestly felt good about it. This course is a hand full. Blind tee shots all over guard this course from really understanding what your tee shots and approach shots should look like.

Be prepared for the putts to break an extra few inches all over the place. The greens rolled extremely well and true, but were tough to read. Tee shots were a lot of fun and allowed you to really work the ball, but still have slight misses and stay alive.

Views on this course are amazing and adds a ton of character to this place. Honestly, I didn't mind the slow play because it allowed us to take in the beauty of this course. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. This was a really fun experience.

Staff was great, pro shop and driving range was above average, but not anything you haven't seen before. Great place for an outing.

Pucker Up, This Place is TIGHT

This is one of the tightest courses I have ever played. Be prepared to either control your driver or club down to guarantee yourself a solid lie on your second shot. These narrow fairways really add a lot of character to the course, but add a lot of headache for the player. Nothing is given here, everything is earned.

Course is protected by water and OB sections around most of the holes. You really have to be accurate here to go low. When you are allowed to pull out the big stick, you have to take full advantage. We played this course in May and found the course to be in great shape. Greens were still slow, but they were obviously protecting them for the later summer months.

Pro shop is okay, food is decent, staff is excellent. I would recommend this course to others for sure.

Decent course with good features, minimal character

Windermere is a decent course with minimal character, but allows for a good time with the ease of the course.

The course is surprisingly hilly. Your cart will be consistently struggling to creep up all of the hills. If you are expecting to walk this course, please think again. You will be extremely surprised by the steady grade changes.

With that said, you can attack this course with everything you have. It is a par 71 so iron play on the par 3's is a premium. Almost every par 4 and 5 you can let the big dog eat and unleash the driver. Fairways are wide and forgiving which makes this course fun from the tee.

Greens were in great shape, but you can tell they had been aerated in the last two weeks. Pretty easy reads around the greens and they can be managed well.

Golf carts have on-board computers which keep your score as well as determine distance. I shot every hole with my range finder and found this system to be within 2-3 yards every shot.

Overall, easy course which provides some fun shots. Not overly challenging. Golf staff is great, however, inside staff was just okay. Would recommend this course to a friend, but would be hesitant to pay a premium to play here.
