Park Ridge Golf Course

Built on top of an old garbage dump, Park Ridge is one of the most unique public courses you will find in South Florida. There are several holes with lots of elevation - it is one of the few locations in South Florida above sea level.

On this particular day, we were warned that the pace of play could be slow, but in reality it was the best pace I've seen all peak season.

Park Ridge is one of the best values you can find during peak season. My one criticism would be that tee boxed could be in better shape.

One of the most interesting courses I have ever played. Each hole was very unique with many challenges. Greens were in great shape, and fairways were clean, I got stuck with all no shows in my foursome and because I didn't want to go out alone, Phil the manager worked out a deal where i could start out on the back nine alone, and then after my second hole, he brought someone to play with me, and then after we finished the back nine, Phil had 2 more players to join us, and we git to play the front nine almost immediately. It worked out great, PLUS, Phil comped my game. You can't beat that! REALLY great people working there. Can't wait to play again!

Excellent course with multiple elevations, so challenging but still fun.

Noon tee time on a Friday took almost 5 hours to play. Course conditions better than at many courses in the area. Staff very friendly.

Elevation changes like these are rare in this area. The course is less challenging than Osprey Point but well worth playing.

The course is fun to play, but difficult if you are not familiar with it.

I have played this course several times and it has never been in such great shape.

Great conditions from tee to green.

We also played in 4 hours being a foursome which on Sunday is great.

Truly enjoyable and very unique.

I have played Park Ridge several times recently and I really enjoy it every time. It is very challenging but very fair with a great layout that is completely different from any other golf course in the region. The course is much drier since they did a renovation on their drainage system last year. They have recently cut back much of the thick vegetation along side the fairways which makes finding miss hit shots easier. If I have any complaints it would be the Course was extremely slow that day and no ranger was there but it was extremely windy which likely caused the slow pace.

4 of us played and had trouble right from the start with the guys who take your bags for the cart. The people I was playing with arrived before us and they were rude to themas well. The front nine lacks any imagination and is just back and forth golf with the other fairway hitting into you and vise versa. The 8th hole is a disaster. We had 16 people on the hole or waiting to play it. It took about 40 minutes to play that one hole. The woman who was supposed to be moving things along did nothing to help.

The back nine was much better. The layout was interesting and was fun to play.. They need to train their help not to be rude as we had trouble with another helper outback. The back nine is the only reason I would consider this course again.

First time playing this course in two years. Drainage has been added, but still would not play it in wet weather based on past history.

Management has tamed the tiger. The Bush is getting trimmed back, hills have been planted with grass instead of the wild growth of yesterday. I am sure that this facilitated smoother play and less ball hawking. The greens were very fast, but true, fairways were well trimmed and the sand well stocked.

All in all a great experience. Being surrounded by hills is a unique experience in South Florida. Do not miss this course.

I play here often and never once have I wished I played elsewhere. Wide open fairways where you feel comfortable getting after it a little more Jan usual. Great staff and cart service. Course is always in great condition with fantastic greens.

I have played this course several times in the last few weeks. It is just a great layout with terrain and elevation unlike any other course in the area. There are several holes with picturesque views you would not expect in south Florida. The driving range is excellent with thick grass similar to the fairways. Being a county run course they do a great job with course maintenance. The staff is friendly and professional. I highly recommend playing this golf course.
