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.

Going down hill
I have been playing here for 6-7 years. It's not what it used to be. The last few months the greens have become less well maintained, as have the fairways. Staff turnovers appear to be the problem. The staff are less cordial and less experienced.
This has been my go to course for several years. I'm not impressed with recent changes.
Greens were punched and sanded. Course needs water
Thank you for the feedback and for playing our golf course. We are in a bit of a dry spell and continuously working on our irrigation system to get better coverage, especially on the hot spots. We will continue to improve and hope to see you back out soon!
Arlington
Great round, we played in 3 hours and had a good time. Only issue were the punches greens.
Thank you so much for your review! We are happy to hear you enjoyed our course. We value your feedback, and hope to see you back again in the future.
Arlington Ridge
A friend and I played this course for the first time today. All staff were friendly and even the foursome in front of us was kind enough to let us play through. Greens were punched but playable. Very nice layout and challenging enough for anyone from the back tees. Will definitely play again.
Awesome day!
Absolutely beautiful day to play golf! Perfect weather. Love this course. They had arieated the greens so putting was less than ideal but had an awesome time.
Aeration notification????
It would have been nice if we had notification that we would be playing the front nine twice as they had aerated the back nine. Front nine was in good shape.
COVID 19 precautions
Course mgmt exercised caution against COVID 19 virus. Carts clean and sanitized. Check in lines used social distancing even including sanitized pens for signatures. Bathrooms clean and available for washing hands at turn. Would recommend this course.

Golfpro Ellis came out to 2nd hole to collect $20 for golf cart use. I called the pro shop during the week to see if my girlfriend could come with me but was told she would have to ride a separate cart and no charge. I understand completely under the current Cover 19 conditions. I played here 5 times last year and was planning on playing 3 or 4 more times. They have nice greens and fairways and nice layout. If you have to make extra money by charging for carts when normally a wife or girlfriend is allowed to ride together then it is sad. There are hundreds of courses in Central Florida to choose from. After this, I will not return and play elsewhere. Customer service is important and it will be more important when this health crisis is over. Good luck staying in business.
I hate being negative
I really liked this course the first couple of times I played it, Unfortunately it seems like the course is being neglected. The course has so much potential but I just can’t seem to spend another round there until I see some improvements. Hope it gets better.
Thank you for your feedback and for playing our golf course! Please reach out to the GM at jfox@arlingtonridgegolfclub.com as he would like to hear more about your experience. We feel we have been working hard this season to get the course back into shape and would like to invite you back out. We look forward to seeing you again!
I loved the layout. It was not too challenging because of the lack of bunkers and water.
GLOBETREKKER
I played last year and again yesterday. Both times course in great shape and very friendly staff. I would recommend this course..
Great Test and Slick Deceptive Greens
Always love playing here. Great rates and lots of nice people to hook up with. I would have given Straight 5’ams but the Blue and Gold tee boxes need some work or rest. I will be back soon!
Great Golf Course!
Had a truly enjoyable afternoon. The very large sloped greens were in superb condition. The ample wide fairways were very forgiving. Highly recommend this course. Will return often.
Great course!
Arlington Ridge is a great course hidden in the middle of Fl. tucked away in a retirement community. Great layout and greens roll well.
Course in great condition
Even during this difficult time and having no rain in quite some time, the course is in great shape. The greens are huge and rather fast. They have everything set up very safe and enforce All Covid-19 guideline
Cool day at Arlington
Greens super fast, fairways good, no water in ponds, no rough to speak of, recommend playing here!
Last day b4 shutdown
Had to play before tge state closes. Course was in fair shape for being the dry season. Greens were fast, fairways alittle burnt. But the course is always a fun round. Challenging holes and a few that make you "Go for it!"
Hopefully we can play again before summer.
Thank you for your feedback and patronage! We see you must have played shortly after an aeration which may have impacted your experience. Please reach out to the GM at jfox@arlingtonridgegolfclub.com as he would like to find out more about your experience with staff and invite you back out to play when greens are not aerated. We feel like we have been in pretty good shape this year and definitely intend to get better.
