The Ridge Golf Course & Events Center

WE WERE PLEASED TO GET AN EARLY TEE TIME - SINCE THIS WAS OUR 1ST TIME AT THIS COURSE & KNEW NOTHING ABOUT IT - WE WOULD HAVE DONE THIS DIFFERENTLY - AS WE DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A GOOD SIZED MENS GROUP ON OUR HEELS FROM ABOUT THE SECOND HOLE ON. EVERYONE WE CAME IN CONTACT WITH WERE RECEPTIVE TO THE NEWBEES. ROUGH ALONG THE FAIRWAYS WAS TALL COMPARED TO SOME OTHER COURSES BUT WE MANAGED AS BEST WE COULD.

The ridge is a challenging course. If you get off the fairway you will be in trouble fast. There are several sand traps along the way. The greens are easy to three putt if you are not careful. If you manage to finish your round with the same ball you started with you have had a good day.

I will go back and concentrate more on the fast difficult greens.

Green's fast but fair rough was a one shot penalty.Course won today but I'll be back .Love this track

One of my favorites in the area. good greens and challenging layout with elevation changes and the right amount of water and bunkers.

This course is hilly and challenging and definitely lives up to your expectations for a foothill golf experience. The GPS on the golf carts makes pace of play much faster than without. Scenery is beautiful with no homes facing the course as yet. The clubhouse has an elevated view of the 10th fairway and a good menu for dining in.

It would have been a great day, except for the smoky conditions due to a forest fire that was within 30 miles of the course. The smoke travels downhill out of the Sierras every evening and doesn't go away until after 2:00pm. Golf was great and a challenge for rookies, but the smoke made for watery eyes.

~ Beautiful Course, very challenging... I highly recommend this course.

If you can stay out of the bunkers you should score well. Nice hilly course which I enjoy playing.

On a Saturday it took 5 hours but nice course . Good condition

You need precision and a little bit of shot shaping off the tee to score well here. Oak trees and bunkers pinched in on some of the landing areas so it visually appears tight on many holes.
The greens were slower than expected, and with the heat, some spots were too soaked with water to dig in a wedge. It was a very good test. I was surprised the par 3's were all roughly the same length. This was my first time out there .. you need a few times out to master it I think. As mentioned, there is water and rocky scrub (rattlesnake heaven) on numerous holes
that can cause fits if you are having a less-than-accurate day with your shots. Lots of variety in hole shapes and elevations.

Playing first time, found it a bit challenging but enjoyed the round of golf.

Great early morning round . Fast pace and great conditions , fairways and greens are tight and rolling fast . Staff was friendly and efficient . Course is always challenging and fun .

Always fun to play the Ridge. It has most every challenge you could ask for....water, dog-legs, up hill, down hill, narrow fairways, generous fairways, length, it's got it all. I have never seen it crowded, but then again, I am retired and play during the week.

The course was great today. I read the previous reviews about pace of play and we were out in 3hrs/45min. The course is in great shape but the greens were surprisingly slow. I expected more on that front but I can't wait to go back. I live in Sacramento and its worth the drive!

Love this golf Mecca, if I would have had this growing up I'd be a lucky kid.

This course was in spectaculer shape and very challenging greens were in great shape

Could trim the longer grass, as known for having rattle snakes.

Nice course, good design, many great holes....BUT, there was no marshall. On the back nine we were waiting on every shot while the second group up from us took mulligans, multiple putts. We were close to six hours on the course. The couple playing with us had enough by 16 and left the course in a huff. We will not book the Ridge again.

Great course in great shape even after a shotgun tournament prior to my play. I struggled with 3s with several water shots in play from the blues. Lots of elevation changes on this fantastic course. Some narrow fairways kept the driver in the bag. I will be back!
