North Course at Highlands Ridge

Well designed and challenging course. Lots of sand traps and man6 tee options.

The course condition was only fair but understandable as the area seemed to be experiencing significant drought. I am planning to play the course again when it is in better shape. The Pro Shop staff was very friendly and accommodating.

I have played this course multiple times and always enjoy it. With the lack of rain it’s in really good condition. A few weeds popping up on and around some tee boxes but not terrible. Layout is fun and different than other courses. Staff is always exceptional from the pro shop to the bar/restaurant. Give it a try!

Was fun to play

Greens consistent

Pace of play differs on the time and day

Played Sunday, Excellent Course layout and Conditions, GM was great, very welcoming, John and his staff will see more of us.

We put a foursome together and normally play this course 3to4 time per year. When we arrived we were greeted by the Marshall/Starter outside the front door, a great ambassador for this golf course. We had coupons for the range and 2/1 beer after our round . At the Pro shop we were welcomed very nicely. The shock came when we started to play ! The grass not cut on the Tboxes, could not beleive the weeds growing on the Box and on the greens, lots of them , not treated either, large plants growing in the fairways, they really need a good experienced grounds keeper. If they let it go any longer, it will be hard to save it. Beautiful layout, great aminities, housing, green positions all is really good, this course could be very busy every day but ouff , not obvious, maybe a budget issue.

To conclude, when we ended our round we wanted to sit and enjoy a few beers and have some food and watch the Masters, but the Bar and Restaurant was closed at 2pm. Its beautiful, attrackting bar and restaurant. CLOSED.. we could not beleive it. Missing out an oportunity to have a Masters event on thei big screen.

I really hope they get the weeds and grass issue solved.

i've played highlands ridge before many time... love the layout, tee boxes, greens... however, the conditions seem to be worsening. lack of maintenance seems to be an issue. i play pinecrest where their grounds people are constantly working on the course to keep it up. never see any activity on the grounds at highlands ridge. now that the south course is closed, pace of play with members seems to be an issue. my hope is that someone makes the call to make this one of the best places to play in highlands county to avoid what happened to the south course.

Great course. Little dry in some spots. Greens are ok Overall the course can be challenging but fair. A need to play if in the Avon Park / Sebring area

Found this just searching on Golf Now. Found a Hot Deal for $37, on a Sunday. What a beautiful course. Spread out. Fairways were great. Greens were beautiful although hard, but green. Tough course but for the cost, I would've gladly paid $80. Well, WELL worth the money. My new favorite public course around Polk Co. Play it.

Great shape keeping course green during drought situation

I stop often in the Sebring area to play golf when I am traveling to Tampa. Normally I play one of the two Sun and Lake courses, which are OK layouts. Just on a hunch I did a Hot Deal at this course to see if it was any good. I was pleasantly shocked. It is my new “go to” course in this area. Great layout and the condition of the course is very good for a public course. Play was your normal four hour round. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to play a course in the Sebring area.

Course was a pleasant surprise! Staff was exceptionally friendly from pro shop to bar. The course was fun and offered a different look than the typical Florida course. We will definitely be back!

Come down in March for Clewiston Sugar Festival to visit family & friends. Sister lives in Lake Placid so always bring clubs to play. Had a decent Golf Now time and value for this course this time so I decided to to play here. I like the layout and the wider fairways help staying in play. Greens were ok but playing early with fog they were a little slower than expected. I like tightly mown tee boxes so the tee boxes were a little long for me. Staff was very friendly and played fast since I went out early.

This course is always in good shape very rarely is their slow play and the people there are fantastic. Always look forward to playing there again.

Love the over seeding they did with the rye grass. Fairways are green and lush compared to other courses in the area.

Went to Highlands Ridge for the third time this year and it gets better and better. We came over from Tampa. Talked to the GM John in the shop and he said they finally got rain this weekend. Fairways are as good as you will find in this market and the Tiff Eagle Greens are very quick. This is the only course over seeded with rye grass in this market. It so nice to play on Green Grass! The owners and management are really making an effort to make this place Great Again!.

I highly recommend Highlands Ridge. The staff is awesome.
