To mount an smb exported folder from windows, you'll need samba to access it.
To avoid using smb, you could instead create an NFS export from windows but would need to install NFS software on your windows box first (I'm not aware of any free NFS implementations for windows, only paid ones)

Name
nfs - Network File System
Description
The Network File System (NFS) is a specific file system implemented under the Generic File System Interface, as described in
NFS provides support for sharing ordinary files and directories in a multivendor networking environment. The system administrator for a
file server machine makes a file system available for remote access by placing the name of the file system to be shared in an export list.
The administrator for a client machine can import a file system from any server machine that has granted access permission to the request-
ing client machine. A complete exported file system or any subtree of an exported file system can be imported by the client machine. Once
imported, users on the client machine can access files in the remote file system as though they were local files.
