The Ridge

Fairways in perfect condition. Greens in perfect condition. Receptive but quick. Greens idea rough and little patchy and not maintained by the bunkers, but that's nit-picking.

worth your money

This course is always in good shape. a little wet due to the heat & the greens could have been mowed.

Wish there was a marshall, group was really slow in front of us & slowed us down.

This is one of my favorite courses. challenging but fair.

Great course for the money

First time I've played this course and surely a repeat to come. Course in great shape. Challenging yet enjoyable for weekend players. Greens are fast but reasonable. Trouble is everywhere if you don't keep your ball in the fairway. course management is essential but not to the extent you're stressing out.

Above the heat?

We had a 12:55 tee time & went off on time. Being about 100 degrees & clear skies, we had the course to ourselves and played in just under 4 hours. The greens were a bit slow, I'm sure because of the extra length to avoid burning them out, but rolled true. Lunch before the round was tasty and the staff very friendly. There were coolers on the carts & ice available to fill them as needed. I truly enjoy playing here.

Best wishes to the people involved in the Foresthill Fire. We could see the plume of smoke rising over the ridges in the distance.

The Ridge Experience

Friendly, welcoming staff. Moved up out tee-time at our request. Course in very nice condition. Greens were well-groomed and average speed for us as recreational golfers. Advice: swallow your pride and play from the tees that make sense for your golfing ability. We did and had a very enjoyable round of golf. -DFinch, Roseville, CA

Nice coarse

The course was in excellent condition. The greens were great and I would definitely play the coarse again. The only negative was that there was a slow group playing in front of us and there was no marshal to speed them up.

Exceptional course,exceptional value

The Ridge sets in the foothills off of highway 80 with easy access to the course. Layout is interesting, and sits alone amidst Oak and Chapparal and some Pine. Each hole is distinct ,and carved into a moderate hillside. You are able to remove yourself from the hustle -bustle of urban life into a tranquil setting for 4 hours. Pace of play was great with the 12:10 tee time,and we finished in 4 hours even with one novice. The Ridge has moved to my number one slot for courses in and around Sacramento and Placer counties.

Course was great for this time of year...pace was terrible

I have played here many times, especially during the winter when all the courses are closed in Tahoe where I live. This particular round was less than enjoyable because of the pace of play. It took 5 1/2 hours. Two problems..one being there was no course marshal in site the entire round and secondly, the group in front of us were routinely taking multiple mulligans on every hole. By the end of the front nine, they were over two holes behind. This will not stop me from playing there in the future, but I will certainly make sure I speak with the pro shop about this problem from now on.
