First Time Playing

Great greens!!!

Great greens. Fairway were dry and firm but not like playing on total hardpan. Only one complaint is for a first time player this course has alot of blind shots and no signage on the holes or on the scorecard or GPS. Still I would go back enjoyable round of golf.

Great Course!

Have been a member at "The Ridge" for a while but even for public players the course is an unbelievable value. The price for membership for the level of golf is crazy good too!

All new cart paths which make a big big difference.

Hole in one!

Course in great shape and improving every visit! They are making an effort to restore to previous condition in the 90’s. I had my first hole in one on #8 and enjoyed the round. I will continue to return again and again!

Needs some TLC

Great course and great environment. 3 downfalls of course 1- terrible cart paths 2- sand traps are more like water traps 3- bathrooms on course are locked and in poor shape. Please spend some time and money to bring environment up to par. People in the club house are very friendly.

Leaving the Club

I have been a member for over two years. Never met the Director of golf until he decided to come at me over duplicative tee times, which was a system error, not a player error. He berated me in front of people whom I invited to try the course, needless to say, they won’t be returning.

The waitresses are super slow, there’s rarely range balls and if you have a morning tee time- don’t bank on breakfast or coffee because they cannot arrive on time or get it together.

With RTJ several other options nearby for a more affordable price- go there. These bunkers are full of water, the back 9 smells like sewage and the people are not great.
