Great Layout & Great Price

Great layout. Rated in the Top 50 Courses that you can play. I would come back and play this course multiple times. The layout is challenging. The staff seems to be working to bring the course back to prestige. The fairways and greens were in great "spring" shape.

Some work needed

Course layout is great. Tee boxes and greens need a lot of work on some holes. All the “cats” at Ocean Ridge have not been maintained to the quality they once were. Sad!

Thank you for the Four Star Review. We really appreciate it. The bentgrass greens at Leopard's Chase took a beating last year from the extreme weather conditions, but they have come a long way quickly and are getting even better daily. All four Big Cats courses are improving rapidly under the new maintenance supervision and we are excited about what the future holds for Ocean Ridge Golf. We hope you will come back soon and see our continued progress! Thanks again.

Thank you very much for taking the time to review your recent visit to Leopard's Chase. We do have to effect certain procedures to the greens occasionally, to keep them healthy, so I apologize if the greens had been aerated recently, prior to your visit. But it sounds like you enjoyed your round and we hope you will come visit us again soon and see our continued improvement!

Choose your tees wisely!

I had dreamt of playing here since I heard they were building it. I fell in love with tigers eye and couldn’t wait for leopard’s chase. Today was the day. A direct quote from my starter... choose your tees wisely this is a tough course. No joke, is it ever! I am a mid teen handicap and this sucker is relentless. Keep your driver in the bag and settle for a lot of placement shots unless you can thread needles with your longer clubs. Fairways are narrow and run out. Greens are no where near large or flat. I’d say the course was in ok condition. The beautiful waterfalls on 18 were a mere trickle which was really disappointing. Bring your best and hold on tight!

Thank you for playing Leopard's Chase. We agree, from the longer tees, it can certainly be a challenge! The unrelenting cold, wet conditions of this past winter have also been challenging, but now that weather conditions are finally improving, course conditions will quickly follow suit. We hope you will come play again and see our continued improvement.

Thank you very much! Yes, the extremely heavy rain of the past several weeks has been challenging for all courses in our area, but fortunately it looks like the weather is breaking at the right time and we should be in great condition for the spring season. We hope you can come visit us again soon.

In spite by of cart path only, course was in good condition. I guess they are still fighting the invasive grass on the greens in some areas, but overall, greens ran true. Course played long due to soft fairways, adding to the challenge, but scenery of beautiful homes made the course very enjoyable.

Challenging, beautiful course

It is a challenging course that makes you plan each stroke. Played mid morning and pace of play was great. Little wet on some fairways, but good. Definitely would like to play it again when I come back to the area.
