Hot and no access to water once on course.

Very disappointed that on a hot July day in Alabama that neither one of the water fountains at the two "comfort" stations worked. Additionally, the men's restroom at one of the stations was unavailable. The plumbing needs fixing to compete with Robert Jones courses.

Lacked water and usable toilet facilities on course

Course has challenging layout but has bad slope erosion on some holes. Bunkers still had water after dry period. Bunker sand was poor. Lacks signs directing to holes for 1st and 10th from clubhouse. Cart path upheavals are frequent. Played on hot humid day and no water on course for refill, luckily I did not need to use facilities. Disappointing.

Great Course

We had a great time. The course is in great condition and the greens are perfect. We had a great time. But slow play from the guys in front of us. They need a person to move this along. Only drawback from going anytime soon.

The Staff was friendly and informative. The course was in great condition. The only downfall was we felt like we were rushed the whole day. We had a foursome behind us that continued to hit into us the whole course.

Course is always in great condition, players take care of the course as well. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Driving range, chipping and putting green available. The course layout is challenging yet very fun and the location is beautiful.

Amazing!

This is mine and my son’s favorite course. The staff are always helpful, pricing is great, and the scenery is great! Don’t miss out on this place. We drive almost an hour, passing several great golf courses, to come play the Ridge. We also host our church’s Men’s Golf Group here. Great job, guys!

First Time Playing

Wet course but knew it before arriving.

Course was wet due to torrential rain in the moth of 5/25. Greens were in exceptional shape. Few issues with a couple fairways but the groundskeeper was sodding some of the fairways. First time to play here. Beautiful and challenging layout but quite scenic to say the least. Booked on GN and thought the pricing was decent. Be back to play when it dries out. Nice staff and enjoyed it!!!!!
