A Lloyd Clifton creation of Kings Course at Kings Ridge Golf Club is an 18-hole beauty and Lake County's best-kept secret.

By focusing on the importance of playability, aesthetics and maintenance, Clifton has captured the natural beauty of the area. It is "thinker's course" where players have an opportunity to use every club in the bag.

King's Ridge opened a second 18-hole course in 2002. The new Ridge Course at Kings Ridge Golf Club is a Par 57, 3660-yard course designed by Ron Garl, making this an ideal location for your 36-hole day.

Solid but needs some love

The good - Interesting layout, fairways are in pretty decent shape. It’s a shorter course (About 6200 from tips) but it’s a good spot overall.

The bad - Greens are patchy, tee boxes uneven and mostly dirt/weeds Never a consistent Bev cart person and at this point, the course can’t even sell alcohol. The 19th hole isn’t great either.

I’ve played the course several times and enjoy it but hope some course maintenance is prioritized, especially the greens.

Greens are better…

…a little bumpy and a few weeds however faster than they were the past 5+ years. Bunkers all ranked nicely by machine. Could use a few more rakes though. No water on the course or beverage cart, stick up. Fairways better than before, a little plush. Tee boxes mostly ok. Puns were all bent, thought it was a prankster however had to take them out on the short putts. Someone had made the tees 5 feet across. Moved several to a more respectable 7-10 feet.

Clown Show!

Made a 7 am tee time so me and my playing partner would be the first out on the course, and we could play fast. The course set out the Women's Group at 8 am as a shotgun start. They were starting on holes 7,8,9, and 10. We ended up getting behind them starting on hole 8.

What a clown show. The course should never put others in front of another tee time like that. We ended up picking up on 9 and requesting our money back.

On top of that, we bought a basket of range balls, got to the range and the range was closed. Ended up getting refunded for the balls.

We have played this course a lot and we usually have a great time. Today, however was not one of those great days. Maybe next time they will try and control things a bit better.

Poor maintenance

Parts of the course are very poorly maintained which is a real shame as the course is interesting with some good challenging holes and well laid out. Very friendly and helpful staff

Poor maintenance

Nice course, it’s shame they don’t maintain it better. In places the cart path is very dangerous. The greens are in poor shape.

Maintenance

T boxes, greens and cart paths need maintenance. Greens need work urgently especially with some hole placements. Some parts of the cart paths are dangerous so be carefull.

Goose Grass Heaven - The Greens

Kings Ridge Championship course is one of the best golf course layouts in central Florida. That being said it is ashamed to see the course greens so full of Goose Grass. The greens are in need of a lot of TLC and get rid of the goose grass. Making putts is tough enough without having clumps of goose grass in the line of your putt. Please take care of this goose grass problem.

Greens...Oh My!!!

Greens looked like the surface of the moon. Balls bounced all over the place when putting. Never could get a true line. Several greens had serious weed issues a well as dry spots in multiple areas. Fairways were ok. I would much rather play on crappy fairways with nice greens though, than what we played on with this course. I doubt I will be back.
