Played for the first time here in over 20 years. I was shocked at all the work they have done over the years. It’s way more playable now even though it’s still very challenging. The 2nd nine will be reopened in October. The greens were perfect along with the fairways. Can’t wait to come back to play the all new back 9. It’s the best value in the triad with so many courses going up on rates. $20-25 to play 18 is insane value.

We played a week ago with the course fully open. Wow! What a difference! They have really opened up the course with some major tree removal. The greens are in pretty good shape for fall. There were a couple greens that need some regrowth but I'm sure they'll come in nicely, as the rest were fine. Staff was friendly and the rates were great! We will be back often.

First time at Winston Lake in years. They have removed thousands of trees to open the course to more sunlight, and the transformation is amazing! The tees and fairways are excellent, and most of the greens are full. There are a couple of greens that look a little rough, but overall the course is very good. Staff is very friendly, even giving 90-year-old Charlie a "discount" from $120 down to $110...just kidding. Senior rate to play and ride during the week is $20. That's right, $20 to ride 18 holes for seniors! And $10 to walk!! Definitely wear comfortable shoes, because even though a lot of trees are gone, the hilly terrain remains.

This place would be a v 5 for service and amenities. It is a 4 simply due to ongoing renovations. The fairways are all good, well maintained and manicured. The rough along most holes is almost completely unplayable - they have recently cut and chipped a lot of trees, and it is spread along the sudes of the fairways. The greens were a mixed bag. All of the greens were super hard, almost like hitting onto a wooden floor instead of a green that lets the ball bite and sit down like most greens do. Many of the greens had bad spots and bald spots, making drop zones a necessary part of playing through. Despite all of the renovation and work in progress, this is a pretty course. The service was top notch. The clubhouse facilities were well maintained and clean. If you dont mind the distractions and challeges of the renovation project, I will recommend this course now.

Really enjoyed playing here. Saturday morning in August, course was green and in great shape (a couple greens had some bad spots but if you are the kind of person to get bent out of shape because of that...then you're either a jerk and shouldn't play here or you think your'e going pro once you fix that slice and you shouldn't play here either.) Course is great value, love the terrain changes.
