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
Great course/great value
The course played quick, the fairways were in great shape and the greens were good. They just aerated a couple weeks ago, but no problems. I would highly recommend this course to anyone and will definitely be back!
Challenging layout
Course is ln great shape especially considering some recent heavy rains Good lies all over. Greens rolled well. Staff very friendly. I had some friends visiting from out of town and they loved it.
Nice
F friendly staff nice course just a great day of golf and a nice great golf course staff was very friendly
Aeration in progress
Got to the course found the front 9 was not playing had to play back twice wouldn’t have booked had I known
Good course for time of year
Felt welcomed from the start. Gave my wife discount as it was ladies Thursday. Greens had been treated but playable. Would play again
Should be better
Layout is great , condition subpar should be better.. starter is friendly, pace of play was the worst over ever seen.. left after nine it was so bad.. the conditions weren’t good enough to deal with waiting on every shot.. just brutal ..
New Test
Can see a lot of improvements from where this course was a couple years ago but still has room to go will play again enjoyed the day
