To start things off, I can't even begin to describe or come up with words to say how I actually feel. But here's my attempt. I shot an overall 77, pretty good right? No not really, the amount of poop that invaded the course and tee boxes is absurd. On one of the holes the actual hole was not a circle. It was more like a half moon with an indention on the side of it which nestle my ball holding it from being a birdie. To top things off, hospitality was, to be generous, a double par. Which if you have played golf, isn't good. To really top and end things off, I was stuck behind a five-some. Thank you for your precious time in reading my review of The Spur. read more

The greens were not in great shape. Could use a ranger to monitor pace of play. Was stuck behind the slowest group of all time that wasn't letting anyone through read more

Played a round here today and enjoyed the facility. Course was in good condition for all the water... Gorgeous day.. Courteous and prompt service received from the staff and we would indeed consider another round here another time down the road. Excellent discounted price also received on teeoff.com. read more

The Spur at Northwoods - Golf Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Poor management/poor customer service/rude ranger. Fun course but no need to worry about playing there again until they overhaul the business model. The golf community knows this and many are going elsewhere to avoid the hassle. read more

Great public course!!! Nice pace of play , good greens for the price!!! Great experience

Poorly managed. employees claim to charge for practice putting/chipping greens. no where in the country does this. Clearly the financial situation is questionable here read more

My friends and I booked a round here to play before my wedding. Only 4 of us were playing and 2 were gonna hangout and watch. We assumed we'd have to pay a cart fee for the extra cart but instead they made both the riders pay $42 each. Normal cart fees at courses are $15-$20. They said the course was busy and they can't afford to just let people have carts. When we finished there were 10 carts waiting for golfers and about 20 in the barn. The course was in okay shape. Tons of tracks on the course from people driving in wet areas. The greens have weeds growing on them. We usually play out there a handful of times a year but after the way they treated us we will not be back. read more

Poor cart paths have seen better days. Nice people and cold beer though. Cheap fun for a quick game.

Incredibly slow. Ranger doesn't understand how to manage the course nor how to make instruct those on the course. On Wednesday morning it took me 3 hours to finish 9 holes. In addition to the slow play the greens management teams demonstrated no respect for the Golfers on the course. The 80 year old man in front of us was almost hit by a lawnmower leaving him coughing in a cloud of dust. read more

I'm no golfer, but I do put on three golf tournaments a year. Northwoods handled 105 Golfers like it was no problem. Boxed lunches on the carts by noon shotgun start? Check. Bevcarts for us to drive? Check. Delicious burgers and dogs afterwards? Check. Great staff. Good looking course. Will return! read more

The conditions are steadily improving as spring rolls on. One of the best golf deals in the area with an interesting course layout. Recommended. read more

Just left northwoods and it was disappointing. The course has a nice design and lots of potential. However there is so much course trash (leaves, pine neddles, rocks) everywhere you can barely find your ball. The cart paths are like offroad 4wheelin, bunkers like concrete/ponds, greens that are in poor condition. There was no water on course or in "clubhouse"The bathroom stalls had the locks broken off on all of them. It really needs some TLC, but at $23 to play im sure there is no money to put into the course. read more

The course wasn't bad for the season spray painted greens were interesting and they needed some work. The guy behind couldn't have been more rude. Overall course was ok but needs new staff and kids shouldn't be on the counter in a place of business. read more

They really ought to shut this place down. The greens are an embarrassment and the range balls all look like they spent a lot of 'quality' time in the river. The owner and management should be ashamed to sell greens fees and range balls. Don't go here. read more

Better than the previous reviews. The greens are rough but the course isn't in horrible condition other than the cart path. Keep in mind this is a value course and not a resort or county club and you'll be fine. Good spot to lower your strokes and improve your iron play. read more

I play this course every week its not the best in Columbia but for the price its a deal, the course are being worked on to improve its condition still not a bad course. the staff are all great people I would recommend this course to anyone. read more
