Frequently Asked Questions

What's the standout hole at Windwood of Watertown, and what should I watch out for?

You absolutely have to experience the par-3 7th hole; it's a beauty but a beast. You're hitting over a marshy area to a green guarded by bunkers, so club selection is everything here. We recommend taking an extra club and aiming for the center of the green to avoid trouble.

When is the best time of year to play Windwood of Watertown for ideal conditions and a good pace?

We always suggest visiting in late spring or early fall - think May-June or September-October. The course is lush, the greens are typically running true, and you'll find the pace of play much more enjoyable than during peak summer weekends. The weather is usually perfect for walking too.

Is Windwood of Watertown a walkable course, or should I plan on taking a cart?

While you certainly *can* walk Windwood, we honestly recommend taking a cart unless you're truly looking for a workout. There are some significant elevation changes, especially on the back nine, that can wear you out quickly. Save your energy for your swing, not the uphill climbs.

Windwood is perfect for the mid-handicapper who appreciates a fair but challenging round with some strategic shot-making. You'll find well-maintained fairways and greens that reward good iron play, but also enough trees and water to keep you honest. It's a course that feels welcoming but still demands your attention.

After finishing a round at Windwood of Watertown, what's your go-to spot for a post-game drink or bite?
