Red Bridge Golf & Country Club in Locust is routed through stands of mature trees that give the course a peacefully secluded feel. The layout wanders across gently rolling hills, providing a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. There is a stream that runs throughout the golf course, coming into play on a few holes. The course is seemingly long at 7,100 yards from the back tees but it's more forgiving than it appears, which means players of all skill levels can enjoy the golf course. The design relied heavily on the natural features of the landscape, allowing the course to blend seamlessly into the natural surroundings while also shaping natural hazards. There are also strategically placed bunkers throughout Red Bridge that complement rather than overtake the natural challenges.

Crab Grass

It is early in the season so I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Greens were in good shape and rolled true. Rough is cut but still difficult (as it should) but I was disappointed with the amount of crab grass in the fairways as well as the amount on the box (as well as sand in general). This course is normally in much better shape but to see business picking up and the course in the condition it is is, makes me speculate. Will give this course another shot in a month, and that will be the final time I play it this year if it's in the same shape. Live the layout and love the value, but not in its current condition.

Great value for the money.

The conditions were in good condition but the course has your typical winter issues as every course has in the area. This course is a great layout and challenges every skill level golfer.

Loved the layout!

First Time playing this course, with no maps of the hole layout had several blind shots that I did not know which direction to aim. Very challenging with the length of the holes. But perfect weather and a great time there.

Has great potential

Layout is awesome with undulations tee to green,

Greens roll fine and definitely take big breaks but wish they were a little quicker than quick sand; greens are soft and balls stick so play to yardage...front nine is definitely the scoring side so take advantage....good range and practice area...top practice green is nothing like playing greens so putt at range green...

Has potential to be pristine but due to location I think it is missed a lot....a lot of older players play there and pace of play is deadening...

Enjoyed playing this course

Always a fun time playing Red Bridge. Course is challenging and a little tight in spots. Requires a good bit of skill and restrain. Strategy and ball placement are critical. Will be back!

Don't miss the Fairways

Staff was very helpful at check in, club house is small and would be nice if they had on course refreshments. Fairways are in decent shape, if you miss the fairways plan on scrambling to make par. The par 5 18th is a challenge at 618 yards. I would suggest using the course yardage book if available. Greens are in good condition and putted true. Pace of play was rather slow, did not see course Ranger during my round, overall fun day and will definitely return for another round.

Great Course

Really nice course with great greens. Couple of bare spots on the tee boxes but nothing too terrible. I can imagine this course being very nice during the summer as the entire course is bermuda. You have to be accurate off the tee as missing a fairway will, more likely than not, put you in an awkward stance. Played on a very windy sunday which made the 639 yard par 5 18th pretty difficult.

The Pace was very slow and could not finished all 18 holes. It seems that the course overbooked for the day.

The course Ranger was no help since there was a group ahead of us taking their time looking for balls in the woods with no one on front of them.

Excellent Layout with Varied Terrain

Loved the course and conditions for a December round. The greens were dormant but had green dye sprayed on it yet putted very true and smooth. There was a good variety of holes, length and direction. The lay hole at 630 yards will test your ability to string some shots together.

The clubhouse area is still in development but the course is well worth a visit.

A Jewel

The Red Bridge was a great find. I'm traveling across the US playing golf and accidentally came across this jewel. Not much of a clubhouse-they put the money into the coarse, which was in great shape. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were in great condition. The Red Brige had something for all levels of golfers. The back tees make you use all clubs and had several forced carries off the tee box. The forward tees help the carries a lot. Fair and fun greens. All levels of golfers will enjoy!

Great Course, But

Course was in great condition, especially the Fairways and Greens. Bunkers were also in good shape. One thing I did not like though, was many areas around the greens and parts of the rough were just mowed down crabgrass with many bare spots which was difficult to play off of and not much fun either. The clubhouse was a double wide trailer and they only served drinks and snacks, no sandwiches to eat at the turn.
