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.

Course was in excellent condition, no carts available upon arrival. Need ranger on course,play was very slow. Took 5 hours and fourty-five minutes to complete round.
Good value for a Gary Koch design
If you've played Mystic Dunes (also designed by Koch), give this a try. It's a bit of a drive but reminded me a lot of Mystic Dunes at 1/3 the price. They had 3 inches of rain the previous 2 days and only 4 holes were cart path. Great drainage design.
Great course
The tee boxes, fairways and greens are all in great condition! The food which we purchased at the express window was good . They did have a bev cart out on the course, which we saw her twice. The pace of play was very slow but it was fine since we were paired up with another couple. Will most definitely be back!
Pace of play
Met Jim, starter at # 1. He gave us five minutes of course history. Than went into
course rules as in filling in divots, fixing ball marks on greens, raking traps,
around green place golf carts on cart paths.Jims dissertation was well taken
by my group. He was friendly and informative.
While playing the first hole we waited a couple of minutes for the group ahead of us
to leave the green. Holes # 2-3-4-5-6 were ridiculously slow. The group ahead of us
showed no concern about speed of play, never offered us a play through courtesy.
Their carts were always parked in close proximity to the greens.
A back up ensued with two groups behind our 4-some, On #6 Icalled pro-shop to report this.
A marshal came out and did his thing, play speeded up for one hole than slowed down
for the rest of play. This kind of disregard for speed of play made our day an unhappy
experience. Thank you for the opportunity to voice my opinion,
respectfully, Bob Santulli
Better Than Average
Arlington is fairly wide open w/the occasional hazard coming into play. Very little water, manageable rough. Greens are generally in good condition, although deceptively slow. Need to knock it to get it to the hole.
Nice Course in good shape
Appears new ownership has continued to keep the golf course in good shape. Greens are a bit slow but not terrible. Very even and true putting surface and fairways are kept in good shape as well. For the money, a good deal. I do like the layout and design. Some very good holes and green configurations.
Great Holiday course
Played this course for the first time , paired up with 3 American guys who were good fun . Nice open fairways hence pace of play was good . front 9 greens were slow but got quicker as sun came out . Ideal holiday golf
Great links style course.
I always enjoy playing this course when we visit Leesburg
Great Shape
Have played this course before. It is in great condition right now, well worth the money.
Very good course for the money
Picked up on Last Minute Golfer at a good price. The course was in great shape.
comfortable pace and great food
worth giving it a try. friendly and well kept. Dining was wonderful.
What an enjoyable experience...
I drove an hour to play this course, and it was worth every moment of my time. Although the course was recently aerated, it's still played like a premier golf course from tee to green. The staff is exceptional and the layout is fine, yet challenging for any level of player.
Front nine only
Was a bit disappointed that the back nine was shut down because of overseeding (Would have been nice if GN had noted}, was informed at check in by the very nice clerk.Greens roll true, fairways in great shape; ry layout is very good.
Fairway Rough too long
The pace of play was incredibly slow because if your ball rolled into the fairway rough or was 1' to 15 feet off the fairway, it was impossible to find the ball.
Cut the grass and the pace of play will increase.
AR on Labor day
Had a fun and good round. Greens were a bit slower than they looked, that was my bad. I showed up a little late and didn't have time to get a feel for them. Course was in great shape. Thanks to all the staff that keep things that way.
ruff hard to find ball but over all good shape
the course is in good shape great for senior play wide open ,hard to loose a ball except in the ruff sometimes you have to be right over it
Very golf friendly
I like the course Layout, you can see the maintenance crew is really trying to improve the course it's very user-friendly for lady golfers my wife play shot an 84 and she's 70 years old
not a good time
I teed off at 7:07 and no one in front slowed us down. Then we got to #10 hole and there were 4 groups of women on 10,11,12,and 13. They were allowed to start on #10 in front of us. The women were nice and allowed us to play through, however, you always rush your shots when playing through. It ruined a good time that we were having. I would never go back there. Plus some of the greens were unplayable and there were 3 temporary greens set up.
Arlington Ridge
They were sanding over the greens while we were playing. No warnings. Conditions were terrible. Would not play there again
extremely disappointing
Played here late 2014 and course was fine. Played on 6/3/2015 and course was very rough to put it in a GOOD tone. A cobblestone drive is smoother than these greens were today. Since we live in the area year round, we will be back. We will also call before booking a tee time to check the course conditions. We should really know better since this time of year is questionable on courses around the area.
