Escape the snow & play Sanctuary Ridge Photo submitted by DAB4par on 12/05/2014
If you like to play in dirt!
An employee mentioned they'll be shutting down for maintenance soon opening in September. Not sure if that's enough time to fix the damage on this course. Nice layout, just way to many bare spots..
Worst course in florida
Upon arrival we were pushed back 40 min because they ran out of carts. Larry the starter would be the only good thing at this dump. Super nice guy working hard under the circumstances he has to deal with from poor management and hack golfers who feel entitled on a $20 municipal course. The course fairways are the worst ever with no grass anywhere. The bunkers are full of weeds. And the greens were barren. The worst issue here is the staff. They let singles and twosomes off back to back to back and then actually come out on the course to yell at a 4some who is keeping pace instead of pairing up the twosomes. Jean, an old lady, claimed to be the pro shop manager but has absolutely NO understanding of golf etiquette or how to schedule tee times. It was very embarrassing on her part to have such a limited understanding of the game of golf and compensated by lashing out at guests when she can’t answer simple questions asked to her . I have never been so harsh in reviewing any course no matter the conditions but the management staff here is so incompetent I have nothing good to say about this place and would never recommend “The Ridge “ (they are trying to rebrand the name to get away from all the bad reviews)

In transition...dry, as a bone...dead course
In between owners..no water being used..tee boxes, greens, and fairways near death...no money being spent on course..if sold, give it year to come back to life

Terrible
This course is not worth playing in its present condition.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing Sanctuary Ridge Golf Club.

Terrible conditions, no grass at all, VERY hilly. Lots of blind shots.

Terrific layout course needs grass which will come when it rains traps need more sand but the price makes everything OK it’s a really good bargain for a super layout course I played several times and enjoyed it every time fast play friendly people very interesting horse

Do not play this course
This course is in the worst shape of any course I have ever seen. I would not recommend this course to my worst enemy. I understand this course is in the process of being sold and there has been little or no maintenance. It is a shame since it has the potential to be one the the nicest in the area.

Not a good time of year
The layout is still good but golf courses have suffered. I think warm weather and rain this month and next will bring it back to more desirable condition.

Great layout but needs some love
A great central Florida layout nice elevation changes and to me a links style course. First couple of holes needs some attention rest of the course in decent shape greens were consistently good I recommend this course even worth out pristine conditions a course worthy of playing

Not sure what happened here
I used to be a big fan of SR. It seems like it’s been steadily going down hill for the last couple years though. The people who work there are great but the course was in terrible condition. Any fairway lie is basically hitting off hard dirt and the greens are basically compacted sand/dirt that don’t even roll properly. Tough to see this here.

Could be a fantastic course!
Pros: Beautiful views, great variety of holes, fantastic design. Cons: Greens were covered with sand. Fairways had little to no grass. Tee boxes were pretty bare also. Not worth the price they are charging.
