The Ridge Golf Course & Events Center

first time here. course was in great shape. fairways and greens in excellent condition.( its been warm in sac this month, the fall thinning of the grass maybe has been delayed.) talk about fast greens ! holy smoke. if you don't have an uphill put don't worry, your next put will be uphill. i'm not a great player and the so this place looked pretty intimidating on line however I will say the fairways are manageable. an errant shot isnt automatically lost. greens are big but multii-teared and raised, need some loft to hold some of the greens. lots of slope. some very picture-esque holes. it was a bit slow - there was a slow foursome a few groups ahead of us. took a little less the 4.5 hrs for the round. Dont beleive we ever saw a marshall come to think of it. The clubhouse is very nice as is the outdoor dining area, overlooking some of the course. The carts have some sort of GPS tracker where they will die if you go somewhere your not supposed to be. Almost had to get out and push. found I could drive in reverse to get back on the cart path. slightly hilly course. some fun holes too. #4 , 9 and 18 come to mind.

Been lucky enough to book a 2pm tee time here on a Saturday. I thought that would be plenty of time to finish before it gets super dark. Started on time and joined a 3-some. Following a foursome who were a little slow. We gave them some breathing room and next thing you know a group decides to jump on hole 4 from the other fairway. Finished hole 9 just at about 4:40. That group left after hole 9 and started to be a little quicker. Caught up to the group in front on hole 13 because a group of kids jumped in front of them. Of course, darkness fell right on 16 and couldn’t even see the ball on the 17th tee box. This course is still my favorite other than those delays on the weekends. Just left a bad taste after that round.

Don’t understand why they refuse to serve breakfast on the weekends when there are plenty of people willing to grab something. Was told the kitchen doesn’t open until 11 yet there was someone eating breakfast (eggs and bacon) at the bar.

Need marshals on the course on the weekends. 5 hour rounds is too long especially when players are constantly looking for lost golf balls.

I want to say is the best golf course in the area but on this time of the year there is no way to finish starting at 3pm ,especially with bad player playing from the black tees just make it way to slow and hard on them i recomend to have a Marshal to control the pace .

Course was in great shape and very demanding. Need to bring your A game to play here! Will come back and play again.

Visiting Sacramento from out of state. Have played several greater Sac area courses. The Ridge is my fifth course in seven days on this trip (others have been Teal Bend (nice), Whitney Oaks (nice but narrow), and the two at Lincoln Hills (Orchard and The Hills - neither in very good shape). The Ridge is the nicest so far this trip and I intend to go back. Bring your A game.

Love the course and the pro shop. Staff were great and very accommodating. Arrive early to enjoy the putting green and driving range. Beautiful area, wildlife, and no worries of shanking one onto someone's rooftop.

The course was in good condition, just every thing was to wet, don't expect any roll at all .

Hadn’t played here since last year and the course is in great condition despite the heat wave. Tough course but fair. One of my favorite courses.

The Ridge is one of my very favorite course in the Sacramento area. While the course was a little over water in such hot weather, my reduction of stars is for the service.

We were literally called us to the first tee and they hadn't given us a cart. We had a 12:10pm tee time. The pro shop staff was very nonchalant. The place was hopping. It was a Friday ahead of the Labor Day weekend.

Don't want to hit them too hard, but poor planning on someone's part.
