About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 7290 yards
Slope 143
Rating 76.5

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.

Traveling Spring Breaker

The course was well maintained and the greens were in great shape. Definitely has some quirky hole where course knowledge is needed to pay well. Great value and conditions for that money.

Greens roll beautifully, but lots of subtle breaks. Very tough golf course; wears you down.

Greens Too Tough

Played this course a couple of times a years ago.

Was enjoyable and looked forward to playing again.

This time greens were impossible. No approach shots would hold the green. Putts constantly rolled off. There were like concrete. When we mentioned to a staff member when we finished the round, he said the greens are about 6 months old.

A Fun Course

Lots of. Challenge here on many holes even from senior tees some tight landing areas and water in play.

Greens rolled true but were quite hard so difficult to hold on longer approach shots..

Well worth it

Was in the Kissimmee/ St.Cloud area for Vacation.

Most courses in the area are well over $149 bucks to play.

Found this gem on Golf Now, greens fees were $77, reasonable considering the alternative. Course is only a couple of years old, but is in great condition.
