White Heron Golf Club
About
White Heron Golf Club (formerly known as Ridgewood Lakes Golf Club) has had many accolades over its history and for good reason. The Ted McAnlis layout is sculptured from lush rolling land and features immaculate playing conditions year round. Water and natural wetlands come into play on 16 of our 18 holes and the resident breeze can significantly change the course from day to day. Yet despite the natural beauty and obvious pedigree of the layout, with four sets of tees the course is still enjoyable for golfers of all levels.

10th Tee Box Photo submitted by chadone75 on 07/05/2015
Tough long course
This was a tough ping course filled with water on almost every hole. You can lose a ball on every hole. But it is a beautiful course that could use a little more maintenance here and there but still beautiful. Challenging course with turns. Hole 10 and 1 are next to each other which is a little confusing but the play it great. Staff super friendly and helpful.
White Herron
The front nine was closed so we could only play the back nine which was disappointing. The back nine was in good shape.
Really quite good
The front nine was being aerated so we had to play the back nine twice but that was fine as the course was in excellent condition.
Enjoyable
I would happily play again at this course. It looks like it is improving after a decline. The greens on the day were excellent and ran really well.
Wasn’t to bad
The staff was friendly I liked it I’ll be back again my third golf course some spots were competitive
Really Impressed
Great course and staff. I am definitely coming back to play this course again.
Overall not bad
Course overall was not bad. A few holes could use some improvement on the greens and fairways. The layout was fun to play with some really challenging holes. Will play sometime again in the future.
Nice course
Some challenging holes. course and greens in good shape. Staff was courteous and friendly. Will definitely play again when in town.
Tough course
One of the thoughest course in Central Florida with its narrow fairways and water on every hole. Holes 4, 7, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 18 can ruin a score card.
Course is cool. just need more employees to keep up with the maintenance. Tees and fairways are good.
Some greens have some problems But those areas are on the perimeter. Besides that a good test
Good course Good value .
Enjoyed the course . Had a lot of character course was decently maintained. Greens rolled true but were slow. Needed to hit center of fairways to stay out of trouble. pace of play good . Good value
Tight course
Greens were in good shape, not the fastest but not the slowest. Played on a Sunday morning in 2.5 hours.
Fast round
Greens are slow but in good condition. Lots of water but manageable. The range is in barely playable and range balls are not in good shape, At less than 40.00 dollars in the summer it was a good deal but would not pay more. Played in the afternoon and saw no one out there,
Beautiful golf course with great layout. Greens and fairways were in good shape. I would recommend this course while in Orland. 😀
Thank you very much for playing White Heron and hope to see you real soon
Thanks, WHGC
