About

Holes 9
Type Public
Par 35
Length 3007 yards
Slope 110
Rating 34.7

HeatherRidge Golf Course is a nine-hole course with all the challenges of a full-length course. It's an ideal round for when you don't have time to play 18 holes. Water has a prominent presence throughout thanks to a creek that winds through the entire course with tributaries that snake in and out of the holes and there are also ponds that come into play. You'll find water on a total of seven holes. There are a few other tricky spots to watch out for as well, including subtle breaks in the greens. Hitting straight is the key to scoring well and both accuracy and creative shot-making skills are needed. HeatherRidge G.C. has appeal for players of all skill levels and the affordable rates make it doubly appealing.

Good value

Overall, a good value. I actually wish they had the space for 18 holes instead of just 9. Challenging and good features. I can play solo and finish in roughly 90 minutes (it would be faster if I played better, haha!). Already asked a friend to play here later and looking forward to playing again.

Best 9 Hole Course in the Area

Best 9 hole course in the area! The only disappointment is that they don't have a driving range to warm up at. However, Bittersweet is about 5 minutes away if you want to get in a bucket before you play.
