About this course

WindStone Golf Club sits in Ringgold, Georgia, in the northwestern corner of the state near the Tennessee border. The course was designed by Gary Roger Baird working with Golf Scapes, a design firm known for projects across the southeastern United States. The property occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the region's transition zone between the Appalachian foothills and the Tennessee Valley, offering natural elevation changes and wooded corridors. The layout takes advantage of the site's topography, with holes routed through mature hardwoods and across varying elevations that create visual interest and strategic variety. The design incorporates natural features into the playing corridors, with creeks and wetland areas coming into play on several holes. Baird's approach here emphasizes playability for a range of skill levels while maintaining strategic interest through green complexes and hazard placement that reward thoughtful course management. WindStone operates as a semi-private facility serving both members and daily-fee players in the Chattanooga metropolitan area. The course provides a regional option for golfers in the tri-state area where Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama converge. The club includes practice facilities and a clubhouse with dining services typical of contemporary golf developments in the Southeast. The course reflects the style of golf design common to the region during its era of construction, balancing challenge with accessibility for a broad membership base.

Getting there

The journey to WindStone Golf Club begins at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport, a compact regional hub just twenty minutes north across the Tennessee line, though many guests opt for the hour-and-a-half drive from Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson when connecting from further afield. The route north on Interstate 75 traces the edge of the Appalachian foothills, climbing gently through northwest Georgia's rolling terrain before the Ringgold exit delivers you onto quieter state roads that wind through farmland and scattered hardwood groves. The final approach reveals WindStone's elevated setting in the valley shadows, where the course emerges from the landscape with a sense of discovery rather than announcement - a fitting arrival for a club that prizes subtlety over spectacle.
