WINDERMERE CLUB, THE

The rolling Midlands terrain delivers strategic golf where mature hardwoods frame generous fairways that reward placement over power. Water comes into play on half the holes, but it's the elevated greens—particularly the island-style 17th—that demand your best iron play and leave you plotting return visits. Tom Fazio's routing through this former plantation creates natural amphitheater settings that make even routine approach shots feel consequential.
