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.

S L O W Fuzzy Greens!

The course is in better shape than it was a few months ago. The rough, fairways, and greens needed to be cut. The greens were VERY slow due to the long grass on them.

Slowly getting better

The course is slowly getting better, but there is way too much "goose grass & weeds" on the greens. Makes for difficult putting. The improvements are welcomed but for the money they need to do more. Kings Ridge is to nice of a course to let it go to waste.

Could be better

Tees are in rough conditions. Greens need allot of care. You can’t get a true roll. Ranger is needed to speed up players.

Always a fun track

King's Ridge. like several courses in the Clermont area is different from most Florida golf courses because it has some elevation changes. On one hole you are hitting blind to the fairway due to the rising terrain in front of the tee. On a few you get an elevated tee. The eighteenth is one of the elevated tees with large waste areas left and right, an some fairly tall trees along the ideal line, the elevated tee gives you an opportunity to hit it high and far.

Some of the greens were being repaired with sod inlays around the edges, as long as adjustments were made for balls in those areas the course was in good shape. The greens seemed somewhat slow, but, given the slope (in some cases immediately around the pin) that is probably a good thing.

I don't get up to Clermont that often, but this is always a fun course to play when if the area.

Going down hill

Course use to be really nice and kept in shape… now there are a several holes that are really rough, from fairways to the greens. Also there isn’t a ranger out there anymore to control the pace of play. Some kids were playing 2 and 3 balls in front of me. I tried Calling over and over but bc they don’t have direct number anymore to pro shop, the customer service reps at call center kept asking me to call back. Came back around for back nine and stopped in and no one could help bc they didn’t have anyone to ride the course.

Course looks good from the highway but once you are on it you realize it's not t5hat good.

Greens are terrible, fairways marginal and tees very spotty.

First Time Playing

Nice layout, very green, but so are the weeds.

Pro Shop wasn’t open to check in… employee was late, poor guy working the carts was doing his best to accommodate the people showing up. The course itself is cozy but also had wide fairways. Very green which is nice but fairways and greens had a ton of weed growth with no signs of weed control. Nothing else to complain about, was enjoyable overall. Should be a discount level green fee in current condition and with staff issues. May try again in future but no reason stood out to return anytime soon.

Love needed

All in all a great course. Ranger is needed to speed up the pace of play. Greens need some grooming. Could not get a true roll,too bumpy and to many bare patches. I love playing here.
