Reviews of The Spur at Northwoods Golf Club

Joe Quatt

Greens were in great shape for December. However the course was very wet and the tee boxes were really beat up. The front 9 is great while the back nine is lackluster. Very nice staff and very playable.

Barry Reynolds

Nice layout and challenging on a few key holes. It's a Pete Dye course so be prepared for some shenanigans. The fairways we're decent and the greens were very well kept. Best part, the price was more than fair and made up for the few issues that plague older courses. Only issues - A few holes have standing water on them due to poor drainage, the cart paths are chewed up by roots and there's a few bare spots throughout the course. Other than that, this was worth the drive from Charlotte!

Cameron Crabtree

This is a nothing too special course, but it is a great value for the money. I swung by for a quick round and it was exactly what I was looking for. Incredibly cheap and a nice easy walk, if I lived in the area, I would definitely go back out there again.

Jack McGregor

The course was in the best shape I've seen in years. The sand in the bunkers was very wet and at times full of water. Thus the 4 star. The greens were in very good shape as was the fairways. The ranger and the chap in the clubhouse could not have been any nicer. That extra attention to customer service goes a long way. I will definitely be back.

bryan rabon

I was a little hesitant about playing here at first because it was very busy. However after the first few holes the pace of play was not bad at all. The staff was very friendly and the ranger gave us some good advice on the first hole. I look forward to playing here again.

William Mustain

Just played there for the first time today. Overall, a very nice and fun course to play. I will definitely go back. The layout is fun and challenging. The greens were in pretty good shape. There are a few rough edges (e.g. some cart paths need attention), but no deal breakers. Paid $25 for 18 holes on a weekday - worth every penny. Also, some have noted negative experiences with the staff. We didn't have any issues at all. The guy at the desk was pleasant enough. The started seemed very pleasant and even joked with us.

Frank Shumpert

Course was in good shape. GREENS were nice. Employees were friendly.

Timothy Burnell

Great course for the price. The Manager and employees are always friendly. Played this course at least 20 times over the years. Never disappointed. Keep up the good work Spur at Northwoods. Update 6/24/22 Course is in good condition greens are very consistent... Too bad I'm not lol.

Ross Buchan

Played recently. They overbook tee times. Course was completely backed up the entire round. The guy who usually works the front desk is super nice but the gentleman there was rude and rushed our group as if it was our fault they overbooked. Course was as usual in good condition but wet.

James Nowlin

Solid local course that usually has deals through Golf Now. Even at full price, the course is worth the money. The condition continues to improve and the layout is fun. The pro shop and grill do a good job. My only complaint is the are still a few areas on the course that need improvement, but they're working on them.

Oscar VandenBergh

Nice course, back 9 was better, friendly staff, fair rates. Nice relaxing round and good layout.

Christopher Williams

Course is in good shape, reasonably priced, and decent challenge. Areas of poor drainage have left spots really wet and the cart paths desperately need maintenance. Biggest issue with course - I wish that the snack service was faster and better ... Sweet lady, but epically slow with every movement.

Susan J

The course is a great layout, fun to play. The bunkers are in need of repair...some were muddy. Unfortunately there isn’t much control over the course. We went on a very busy day but golfers were skipping around the course, there were backups 3 groups deep, and groups of 5 and 6 were allowed to go out. I wish I could say this was the first time we have seen this but it’s happened every time we’ve gone. This will probably be our last time playing the course because of it.

Keith

Overall a decent golf course. Nice layout. They have some tricking holes. Greens are good n fast. Their downfall is the cart paths they are Terrible. Carts are nice. Adquate club house.

Tammy Jones

The Greens are emaculate! The pathways and the fairways still need a lot of work though. We played there on a Sunday afternoon and we had issues with waiting for long periods of time for the players in front of us to finish up. I didn’t like how they allow groups of 5 & 6 people (including kids) to play at one time. It took us 2 hours and 50 minutes to play 16 holes (we skipped 2 holes because of the long wait time). The staff was very nice and knowledgeable and the club house was very nice. Not sure if I’ll be back just based off the waiting time we experienced.

Charlie Anderson

What a fun Gem of a course. I wasnt expecting much since the price was low. Showed up as a walking walk on. Lots of ball marks on the front greens. Other than that i was NOT disappointed. Tee boxes weren't perfect with some unnven spots, fairways were in great shape. 70% of the greens were great. Not too difficult, but a fun course ro play.

Jason Smith

Good course. The majority of the greens were in great condition and the spots that were bad weren't in the line of play. The fairways and rough looked really good. Decent elevation changes throughout. Really pays to be in the fairway. One of the best values I've come across..would've paid 40 and been happy but got a golf now deal for 22

Henry Melton

Played this morning. Has a nice driving range. Staff was all friendly and helpful. Just played the back nine the holes were all challenging, the scenery beautiful. The greens were in great shape for this time of year. Had a wonderful morning on playing here

Mitch Moton

The course has made some major upgrades since the last time I played there. (4 years ago). Greens were fast and bunkers were deep and full of sand! I love play in number 14 because of the scenery and the risk reward of a driveable par 4! The staff is friendly and Greg McBride has one of the best golf minds out there. Great experience!

fun only

I have played this golf club for probably two decades now and the reason I keep coming back is because my experience has been generally positive. I've seen the course go through some changes (storm damage, dry/wet seasons, new ownership, etc) but always come back to give us average golfers what we look for most: a golf course that is in good condition, fun to play and moderately priced. And in addition, the personal and management have always been outstanding, great people to know and they make visiting the course a pleasant part of your experience.

Steven Groves

Beautiful course, challenging

Sandra Laya

Quiet and serene environment. The layout of the course is quite unique. I’m not a huge fan of golfing but I really do think that these guys offer a really top notch facilities. The other amenities in the club are also really good.

vL BECK

Great course for a great price! Greens. Roll magnificent all year long! Best course all around in my opinion!

Connor Ayers

Really enjoyed playing here. Course in good condition. Only complaint is lack of yard markings but got a range finder so not a big deal.

Gabriel Green

One of the best golf experiences I’ve had in Columbia. Course was beautiful and well maintained. Also presents a good challenge to any skill level. Staff is great!

Efosa Otasowie

A fantabulous experience. I mever knew I live so close to a beautiful scenery. An escape from the bustling city life of work, family and annoying phone calls. Beauty at its best is my description of this wonderful golf course and walking trail.

Mike Brairton

I think whoever is complaining about the quality or condition of this course after paying $29 including cart for 18 needs to wake up and realize that they are not a Tour member competing for the Open at Chambers Bay. The course is great. The lounge is clean and the people are super friendly. Now the bad part- please get a ranger or someone out there to keep an eye on the Sunday afternoon groups of 6 and the foursomes of drunk Gen Y'ers intent on a 7 hour round while shooting 143 from the blue tees. I'll be back next time and I wish them best of luck bringing this place back to life!

Justin Pruett

Played Northwoods (Spur) today for the fist time in over 3 years. We play a lot of golf in the midlands and had given up on the course quite some time ago. Decided to give it another go today. Very impressed with the obvious improvements the staff has made. Glad to have one of the more interesting layouts in the area back on my rotation!

Mark Smith

Decent tract. Hard to play for the first time, lots of blind shots. Greens are good, high 5 for the greens keeper. Forget playing out of the bunkers. Just agree with your playing partners, that a ball in the bunker is GUR. No sense beating yourself in a bunker that's mud and packed sand.

Scott H.

Great layout. I've been playing this course for about 5 years. The layout is good so we excused the underperforming fairways. It has since been bought out and refurbished in 2018. It isn't immaculate and sometimes #3 fairway is underwater, but it's a steal for the money.

Roger W Scott

Played a round of golf today! Started off really well, still got a lot of work to do on my game! 😆 Golf Course in good shape, I will return.

Ryan Campbell

Good course! The front nine has a lot better pace than the back nine. Currently being redone so the greens r in OK condition but once finished it'll be a great course very fun for all ages.

Jeff Clark

Golf course in good shape. Greens full and in real good shape - slow, but full. Tees & fairways nice & full & green too. Best shape I've seen this course in a LONG time👍 …

young kim

I just moved from new York last sunday. Played today. Still wet from the rain. But layout was excellent. If this course were in New York, green fee would have been $50-60$.... For the green fee paid, I give 6 stars.

Jamie Johnson

McBride honored a Golf Now reservation that was made in error. The Spur doesn't get $ for a Golf Now reservation, so the course honoring a mistake made by a patron was a great gesture and a stand-up move. We had a great time. Many thanks!

Not Happening

Nice course friendly staff good pace of play the greens were in good shape.

Fred Sandler

Fantastic Pete Dye course. A gem. Difficult as are most of Dye's courses. Friendly and helpful staff. Great condition.

The 18-hole course at Northwoods Golf Club is a welcoming oasis for golfers of all stripes, summoning players to traverse the immaculate grounds. slope game unblocked slopex is pretty good like the game is like cool

Jim Causey

Very nice course. Staff is friendly and pace of play is fast.

T Rouble

I like Northwoods. They have come a long ways. The greens just got punched and the fairway is needs improvement. The range is good not great. The practice green is in bad shape. The price is good for the current conditions.

Patrick Orman IV

The greens were just redone and the course has benefited from no play for a couple of months. Greens were rolling true. Course has always been a fair but challenging set up and that remains true.

Ed Marra

Good course, fun to play. No water on course stock cooler at club house

Alain Boukouch

Great course w/challenging T.box Greens n fairway r in excellent condition no excuses to miss ur Birdie 😀 …

Tyler Petty

Nice layout some places seemed like they had trouble draining even though there hasn't been much rain. Layout is worth another visit for sure.

Jonathan Rogers

The course has a great lay out with some challenging wholes. Greg and Bill are nice to deal with in the clubhouse. I'm a midrange golfer and enjoy playing here.

Richard Giacobbi

Greens and tee boxes r good. Fairways are soaked. No water in the coolers on the coarse. Worth the fee during the week. Absurd on the weekends.

gary cook

It's a fun course great for beginners and more adept players. Greens are good, fairways are good, nice staff and really good rates.

Steven Johnson

I loved how convenient it was for my location and everyone I met there was very nice to meet. Plus they spoke of the golf course in a great way... GOING BACK

Latin Caravan

Played here a few years ago and it was in Bad shape. Played here today and it was like a new course. What a difference. If they keep in this condition by summer you won't be able to get a tee time.

Jonas Waldner

Y is there no water coolers on some of the wholesale? AndDont tell me because of covid!

Bobby Belton

The staff are great people plus its a cool place to meet new people while you enjoy the golf course.

Jose De La Cruz

Have been here several times. But bad for the price at all. Staff could be a bit friendlier. If you're not a"Member", they don't make an effort for much. But like I said, it not bad for the price.

Daniel Mayo

Nice course however it always seems to be wet. Staff seems to not like GolfNow bookings, which is kind of aggravating to its customer.

Bryan Elledge

Booked through GolfNow app. Was paired with another solo player. Very challenging course. Extremely fun to play!!!!

Ron Capps

Extremely wet course with cart path only condition, Made the golf difficult and with no water to clean golf balls or clubs.

jack hurst

It was a beautiful day and the golf course was great couldn't think of a more relaxing way to spend a Sunday afternoon

Daniel Morrison

I love the place,and will spend most of my vacation there this year the lay out is great,Wish you guys pla y on european courses,and compare courses,Its isnt the greatest course but for the price i would rather play there,I was there last year and i was treated really nice,The players were great.And I had a great time

Rick Hoggard

Very fun course, especially for the price. They are really starting to get the greens under control as well.

mike cosola

Place was in great shape. Challenges on nany holes. Great course and not over priced

Art Dalton

I have to agree the wait time is very long because of the five player deal and the fact that they also allow golfers to go off the back side first that is a total congestion on the I find the worst offenders to be the older golfers course

Melvin Terry

Great time with brother,loved the challenges this course had to offer

linda roberts

The staff is very nice the course is challenging and clean cut try it.

Mark Grigorchuk

Brian Song

The green improved alot! It is now in a better condition than it was a year ago. The price is reasonable.

Good course with cheaper than usual rates for Columbia. Worth a round or two if you are in the area
