Loon Golf Resort - The Ridge Course
About
The Ridge (formerly know as Marsh Ridge Golf Course) spans acres of unspoiled marshland, tumbling across dramatic elevation changes that provide tees that are as high as the treetops. The course was carefully carved from mature forests and with trees framing most of the holes, accuracy is essential. Although the trees provide a peacefully secluded feel, the hilltops still allow for panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The five par-3 holes are especially scenic. Strategically placed bunkers come into play throughout and there are water hazards on four holes. The par-3 14th is one of the most challenging holes thanks to a triple-tiered green that is narrow and deep. It is followed by the golf course's longest hole at 483 yards. Although it is seemingly narrow, the hole is more forgiving than it appears. There will definitely be challenges in store on this course but it is also quite playable.

Golfer Reviews
Great Course
We loved this course! There were some really challenging par 3 holes and some easier par 5. The course is narrow. Really pretty and in fantastic condition. We loved it!
Video games
I play a lot of technical courses and this one was super impressive. The first few holes are cake but once you hit the back it's all a psych out. Loved it
Great par threes
I enjoyed the track. Prefered the back nine more. Front nine has alot of uphill shots. As a senior playing white tees I was not reaching the top of the hills on drives. Must get alot of play tee boxes pretty beat up. Greens were generally good but more undulating than appears. I enjoyed the par 3s. most scenic with huge carries..
Loved this course!
Course was in good condition. A couple of greens need some help but all and all not bad. The course is on a mountain ridge so you are playing on hills with some blind spots. The hole designs were awesome. Lots of sand so accuracy is important. We got 9 holes in and then got rained out. Disappointed we couldn't do 18 but hope to be back someday.
Excellent greens and fairways.
Beautiful course. Tremendous amount of work has been done to clear and clean up debris from ice storm. We had the course to ourselves 😎
Great course
We were one of the few players on the course. Greens and fairways were very good.it was evident that much time and work was spent cleaning up after devastating ice storm.
Beautiful Challenging Course!
While golfing in Northern Michigan my wife and I came across The Ridge and decided to play it.
The area has 3 courses and we chose The Ridge.
It is a very challenging course with some narrow fairways, steep hills and valleys, assorted hazards, sand traps, and water.
Several tee boxes have large areas of brush between the tee box and landing area.
The tees, greens, and fairways were in very good shape.
The Ridge is the most challenging course of the three located here.

Thank you for your feedback! We’ve initiated a tree removal plan across all three of our courses, starting this fall. By the 2025 season, you’ll notice significantly wider fairways. We hope you’ll give us another try and experience the improvements firsthand!
