Indian Ridge Golf Club
About
Located just a few miles south of Oxford, Indian Ridge Golf Club sprawls across rolling countryside sprinkled with walnut and cedar trees. It's the only course around for miles, making it the default favorite for local golfers but it's also popular for the affordable rates. The location provides peaceful seclusion as well as idyllic scenery. The golf course has a classic design with plenty of variety, giving it appeal for players of all skill levels. Water hazards and bunkers come into play throughout the course, often making for difficult approaches. Indian Ridge Golf Club stretches to just over 7,000 yards from the back tees. There are some holes that will please long hitters and risk-reward opportunities that will test advanced players, but the design is still player friendly enough for high handicappers.

Worth the drive
I've played Indian Ridge a number of times over the past several years and this year is the best that it has been. The fairways and greens are well maintained and the course is a good mix of long and short holes. They have improved the drainage issues of the past and you can't beat the price. I would recommend giving it a try, I will be back!
Course has come a long way
Getting in great shape. A little more work and it should play like it was intended.
Impeccable course, good challenge
This was my first time playing Indian Ridge, and I was impressed. Fairways are nicely cut, and rough isn't too heavy. Layout, with dog-legs, elevation changes, and just the right amount of water make it a challenge.
It was good to see a ranger on the course, something I am seeing less and less often in the area, even though there were no pace issues.
Only negative, and it was a very minor issue, was the poor condition of the cart path is some locations.
Much Improved
The improvements and conditions on the course and taking shape. If you have not played here in the last couple of years it is in the best form in the last 7-8 years. It is back to being a must play!!!!!
Great Experience
Played on 11/25 in the afternoon. Spectacular day for late November, windy on the elevated holes. Course was in great shape for the time of year in Ohio. Greens were sandy but rolled pretty true. Greens were receptive in spite of lack of rain recently. Some construction to the right of the fairway on 16, but really didn't affect play. Staff was very friendly, and it was a great bargain, only $15 per golfer with cart !! I have played here several times, this was the best experience yet.
Great layout!
Undulating greens, moderate elevation changes and difficult approaches make this course a welcome challenge for the avid golfer. Would recommend this course many times over.
Glad this course is back!
I have always liked the layout of this course. It has some fun looks, challenging holes, ( I would say some easy holes but there are no easy holes).
However, due to the ownership of the course, sometimes the conditions would slip.
I have played Indian Ridge 4 times this years and I'm glad to report that the course is back. If you are coming from Cincinnati, it is worth the 15 additional minutes in the car. The pace of play is almost always pretty good and therefore makes it worth the drive. There are a few other course that stack players up like cord-wood and that kills the experience. .
I have never written a review on Golf Now before, but I felt compelled to do so. I see some of the reviews from years ago and while I think those reviews were fair at the time, they no longer apply.
In all fairness, the sand-traps need lots of work, but I can see that they are under repair. So, if you love the sand, you might not like this at this time.
Everything else, I really enjoy.
Great Layout.
This is the third time I have played this course. The layout is great. Links style course with moderate elevation changes makes this course fun yet challenging. I will play this course again.The greens had recently been aerated and there was much sand on them making it difficult to putt butt other than that course was in spectacular shape.
shotmaqkers type course
we played the forward tees on most holes except for par 5s which were within range [ 500 yds. or less ]. the course was in great shape from tee to green. greens are the prime part of this course , very fast and true.there are some really good shot makers holes that make this an interesting course to play.
Excellent shape.
Fairways and greens were immaculate. Greens were fast and smooth. Interesting layout, front 9 easier than the back. Few blind tee shots, so next round should be easier. Staff was extremely friendly. Looking forward to playing again.
This corse has come a long ways this year
Great day of golf . The new owners have done a great job getting the corse in shape after it being neglected for so long .
Great Course
The course has lot of character. Never a dull flat straight holes..
getting there
Played last year and course was a dump. Better shape this year so hopefully next year it will be back to top shape.
Thanks so much for coming out and playing at Indian Ridge. We are new owners and excited to be here. The golf course is much better than in the past and will continue to improve. Currently we have renovated 44 bunkers and have 10 more to go. Hopefully we will see you at the Ridge soon. Thanks
Sloooow
I was disappointed with this course. The two golfers in front of us were sharing clubs - the greens keeper was well aware of this and did nothing. I won't play this course again . There are too many nicer courses to suffer through that again.
David, so sorry that you had a bad experience. We are new owners and trying to get the golf course back in shape. The golf course has improved greatly since we took over, we are not done yet and will get in better shape as we progress. Sorry for the slow play, please contact me to discuss the problem in further detail. Thanks
Indian Ride
Greens were fast and hard. Sand needs work. Back side considerably more of a challenge.
Nice course.
Great course, great value
This course has historically fast greens which take some getting used to. Sand traps are currently bare and under reconstruction. Staff is friendly and helpful in every way.
Seen big improvements
I have played this course over the years, since the beginning, and its nice to see it worth playing again. Its getting there. I will go back.
Back From the Dead!!
What a difference a few months and some serious commitment can make. The course known as Indian Ridge has come back to life. The imposter course known by the same name over the past several years is officially dead!!
The greens were in absolutely superb condition.....fast and true. The fairways, with the exception of a patch here and there, were more than acceptable. Tee boxes were good as well.
Staff was very friendly and were "all in" on the process of fully restoring Indian Ridge. There were at least 5 workers on the course restoring bunkers-a project which has already restored a significant number on the course.
The course was very playable and an exceptional bargain for the price that I paid on Golf Now. I will be returning over and over again.
Decent course
Greens and fairways were fast. Sand traps were dirt. Hard as concrete.
Seth, thanks so much for taking the time to rate our golf course. Sorry that someone at the counter didn't inform you of our bunker renovation. We have renovated 44 of the 54 bunkers so far and have put in 1500 tons of sand. We will have the other ten bunkers completed by the end of this year or the first of next. Thanks
pleasent surprised at how far course has come!!
I have played this course many times in recent year but had stayed away for the last few years due to the deteriorating course conditions. I had heard that new management had taken over the course and was actually working on getting the course back in playing shape. I was skeptical of what I had read and heard about the course because this has change management several times and there was no improvement in the course. The course was pretty wet when I played which was expected due to the amount of rain we had in recent days but the overall condition of the course has vastly improved from the last time I played. The greens and fairways were in the great shape. I have always enjoyed playing here due to the unique style and am glad that someone is bringing the course back to it original form. The only negative is that most of the bunkers are not playable but you can see that they are working to get them fixed and playable. Kudos to the new management and I will defiantly be back soon.
Thanks so much for the nice comments about our golf course. It has improved greatly over the last year and we will continue to make improvements. Our next big project is to paved our entrance and do cart path work on the golf course.
