Arlington Ridge Golf Club
About
Arlington Ridge Golf Club in Leesburg, Fla. runs alongside the Palatlakaha River, which edges along the entire southern boundary. Centuries-old oak trees have a commanding presence on the course with stately oak canopies providing beautiful backdrops to the greens and fairways. Pro golfer and NBC commentator Gary Koch crafted the layout. He wanted to create a golf course that is challenging but not overly difficult, giving it appeal for players of any skill level. The layout has a varied mix of holes that strike a balance between being tough and player friendly. Beginners still have a good shot at finishing the round strong while seasoned golfers will enjoy the subtle nuances of the course's tests that come from the elevated greens, strategically placed hazards, and dogleg approaches. You won't encounter any major obstacles but Arlington Ridge is a golf course that will make you think.

Fairways are thin but okay and also very playable
Greens were good and fast
Big greens. Aim for the pin.
I read a review before I played and agree they need more signage between holes as there was a long drive from the greens to the next tee
lannys review
Course is in very good shape Have played it multiple times and has by been consistently good. Greens are some of the best around. The staff at this course is very cordial and create a very good start to your round.
Fairways were horrible. Ross was nonexistent. You’d have better luck, playing in a farm field.
Golfer Friendly
Played at 8 am and the pro shop staff and starter were all friendly. Played with two golfer's that we had never met before (Tony & Russell) both friendly great guys to enjoy a round of golf with.
The course had been airated and the fairways were were not very thick taking some of the reward for good shots away.
There is ample practice facilities, bathrooms, and beverage cart. This is a nice friendly place to play golf.
Arlington experience
Course was nice but green were hard and fast and the fairways had little grass.
Nice course!
It’s been a few years since we played this course and it was great to see it was still as nice a course as we remembered. In addition, new management has the pro shop well stocked with LOTS of merchandise for men and women! Thank you!
Always Playable
Course was great from tee to green. There were some areas the turf were thin but the extra rollout made up for chunky shots. Greens were slick as always. I’ll be back soon.
Glad to play this course again
It’s been a few years since we played this course. Since then the back nine has been developed and the pro shop is being stocked very well with men’s and ladies’ items. THANK YOU!! We will definitely return.
1000 square for greens. Pin set 2 foot off fringe.
Course is great has its spots, but very playable . Whoever set the holes sucks. This place has huge greens. Why set the hole so close to the fringe. Everybody I played with wants to tell you that you suck. PGA players don’t play at Arlington. This is a recurring problem here. Give weekend golfers a chance. Garbage hole placement on every hole. Makes no sense. But I’ll come back because I love your course. And I’ll expect the hole placement will be just as bad. Thanks for that hole placement guy.
Very bad shape.
I don’t like to give bad reviews because I own a small business and I know how they can affect you. I have played this course since it was built and I have never seen it in this bad of condition. The price was way over what should have been paid. Staff is always great and wonderful people, but unreal how bad it has gotten. Course is terrible. Over priced.
Good greens, bad fairways
Played this course over the years during the winter, and although I never found the fairways to be good, I've never seen them as bad as they are now. Plenty of roll, but plan to roll your ball onto some vegetation before you hit your next shot. Greens are in good condition, as well as some of the tees. A decent layout with few surprises, so if you can get a tee time at a good price, it's worth a round.
