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.

Not bad at all

Played 18 today with a friend. Pace of play was pretty slow, but the conditions were great. All the greens were good, fairways were nice but the tee boxes were due for a mowing but definitely not the worst in town. I’ll definitely play here again.

Wowzers

Man, I had such high hopes to show my boss this course, and from the first hole... wow, what a letdown. We got stuck behind two of the slowest, mulligan-taking players I've ever dealt with – I'll get with them later. The tee boxes were overgrown, the fairways were mushy and thick, maybe from overseeding, I don't know. The greens were SUPER slow, thick, full of weeds, just not what I expected since I'd played here before. And those two jerks, they played senior tips and still managed to take 20-25 minutes a hole. On one blind drive, I saw them both hit and drive off towards the green. I KNEW for a fact I wouldn't reach them from the white tees. So I took my swing and KNEW exactly where my ball went (mostly because it was the best shot I made). I saw them come back, pick up my ball, and take off. If my boss wasn't there, yeah, I would've said something. I later found it on the next hole on the ground. Needless to say, it was great playing here while it lasted, but I'd never step foot on this course again!

Course in sad shape

We are snowbirds and have played this course for years. This year, by far, the course is in its worse condition we've ever seen it. The greens have crabgrass growing in them. The fairways, even after overseediing, are in rough condition, and the tees are poor. This used to be our favorite course. No more. Sad to see a great course go downhill.

Disappointed

Course was recently aired out, greens are as thick as the fairway... not the conditions to charge 85$

Poor course condition

The greens were in very poor shape and you couldn't drive your golf cart on the fairways.

Good shape

Course is in good shape. They were over seeding so we had stay off the fairways with the golf carts and had to drive in the rough. A few greens have some crabgrass, but we were very happy with the condition of the golf course.

Weeds, Weeds and more weeds

The greens, bunkers and fairways are loaded with WEEDS, and upon arrival we were told the back 9 was closed. Not a good day!

Tired looking

Cheery greeting from the cart guy. Range was in good condition. Steady stream of players on first tee. The tees and fairways looked quite tired - maybe a rough summer caused that. However, greens slow and have plenty of weeds showing through.

Neglect

I can’t believe I drove 50 minutes to play this course. It’s in terrible shape. It’s been neglected and needs water bad.

Hidden gem

This course is my favorite next to southern dunes and this course last year was absolutely trashed no grass bare greens it was disappointing to say the least I drove past it this morning to actually go play deer island and when I saw how green it was and in better shape visually than last year I got a tee time on GN for 10:51 and when I arrived the lady up front said that they had put a lot of work into it the past couple of months and it showed the course was in fabulous shape except for a couple of area's but still fantastic I recommend this course highly and I hope they keep the costs down .
