Windsor Park is one of two courses at Randpark Club, an 18-hole course designed by the infamous Bob Grimsdell and completed in 1954. The course is characterised by magnificent trees, strategic water features and old-style, traditional, small greens.

Windsor Park is not an easy course, but not beyond the reaches of average golfers. It is the large number of trees which dictate the playing strategy at Windsor. It is a very attractive golf course with enough evergreens to avoid looking bleak, and in autumn it is very striking. It is a good parkland course with water running through it, flanking some holes.

Other facilities on offer at the Randburg Club, are a public, two-tiered, floodlit driving range, clubhouse facilities, pro shop, tennis courts, ample parking & security, and comprehensive packages for members and guests.
