EXCELLENT COURSE
One of Ct top courses. Excellent conditions. Ups and downs.
Good views. Rock outcroppings
Enjoyed the course. Has a good mix of difficulty.9
This was my second time playing the course and I will go back again.
Fun course, must hit the ball straight
Greens were firm and rolled very well. Fairways very narrow but still room to find errant shots. Beautiful views and an interesting layout. Tee boxes need leveling.
Course and weather made for a fantastic day of golf !!!
Played an afternoon round at QRidge, hadn't played there in a couple of years. Place was in great shape, greens were fast but true. We played from the tips [first time doing that], the course was challenging and a lot of fun. The course has tremendous elevation changes with great views all around. We got a great "HOT DEAL" from Golf Now. We would surely do it again.
Best public course in CT
Well maintained. I usually play at a club with fast greens, so I like their greens (also fast) a lot. Interesting layout with several dog legs. Generous fairways. Great restaurant. They give you five dollar voucher included with greens fee.
This course offers a challenge
We are not excellent golfers. We found the course challenging. There are hills,out croppings of rocks, trees and water. When you tee off, you cannot always see where your balls lands because of the hills and bends on the fairway. Some fairways change from a hill to a valley and back to a hill. But is was a great experience and we played 2 days in a row.
A great course built into the ridgeline in Portland
Quarry Ridge is a course that I play at least a couple times a year. The layout is both practical as well as a challenging. You can really test your skills from the TIPS or play a relaxing game from the whites (played blues). The course was in great condition. Greens rolled true (little slow) even though I played midday. Fairways were very well groomed as were the tee boxes. Traps were raked as they should be. Had a great deal from Golf Now which made it all the better.
Beautiful views and challenging layout
Beautiful views and challenging layout. Good customer svc
pretty scenic
course was very wet do to the heavy rain it recived but otherwise was good.
The course had some of the best vistas in the state! Would love to play in the fall with all of the leaves turning different colors
Two of my friends played here for the first time and were very impressed with the layout, condition and beautiful. We played the black tees which were about 6,400 and played all of that. If you don't keep the ball in the fairways, it could be a long day. The course is fair and not tricked-up. Also, considering the amount of rain we have had this year which has burnt-out most courses, this one has not. Kudos to the superintendent! I would recommend this course to any of my golf buddies who like a challenge on a course that is in fantastic condition.
The course had great views and was fun to play.
We enjoyed our round at Quarry Ridge. Play was slow, but still a great place to be on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
Something for all levels of play. Challenging enough for the seasoned player but many makable holes for less experienced golfers
Beautiful course in the hills of Portland. The views alone make it an ideal place to spend an afternoon. The course is well maintained but because of recent aeration putting was difficult. Looking forward to playing here again especially this fall.
Definitely Play Here
Quarry Ridge is a great place to play. The holes are varied from very easy to challenging. The course was in very good condition especially considering the heat and lack of rain the week before we played. Greens were in excellent shape. It would be nice to have a bottle of sand/seed on the carts for divots. Staff was great from the club house to on the course. Would definitely play here again.
Challenging, narrow and hilly
Quarry Ridge gets it's name from an old stone quarry it is built on. It is a beautiful course to play, especially in the fall, as the view of the nearby hills and valleys are just awesome.
Upon arriving I found the staff very friendly and we were able to start playing upon arrival. Golf carts are required on this course due to the long distances from some greens to the next tee. But also, carts are mandated due to the hilly nature of the course.
I normally play from the white tees, but not at this course. Several years ago the whites were moved up next to the red tees making the yardage from the whites (5213) much too short. The blues are shown as 6049 on and the black tees even further back at 6389.
All the holes are tree-lined and very narrow, requiring accurate tee shots. On many holes the edges of the fairways drop off into deep woods, over rock ledges, or into out-of-bounds areas. And, quite a few holes have side hills that need to be taken into account. Fortunately there are very few blind shots needed so course knowledge is not needed for hitting your next shot. But is needed to find the next tee box, so watch for the arrows and hole numbers on the cart paths.
There are several holes (3 & 6) where we had to wait for the group in front of us to hit their second shots as the route to the tee box from the previous green parallels the fairway for the next hole.
Thankfully there are not many bunkers on the course and only one waterhole, the par three 14th. Several greens, especially the 6th, is very difficult to read and is an optical illusion. The 18th is a great finishing hole but you don't want to go left as this is the old quarry with a steep drop-off and signs warning to stay away from it.
After a round the 19th hole is a welcome sight. The staff if friendly and the selection of spirits is very good as is the food.
I would highly recommend this course to any player of average or better ability. I do not feel the course is suited for beginner players.
Very narrow and challenging
Fairways are tight and challenging. Wayward balls are definitely penalized
Overall average experience
Course was in pretty decent shape. Rolling hills and outcroppings truly were beautiful. Pace of play left much to be desired as it took over 5 hours. Pace problem could have been mitigated if ranger would have broken up the 6-some in front of us before the 12th hole. Staff was average, guy working in pro shop had little to no clue what was going on. Would play again simply because of the layout.
Slow play - challenging course.
Bring lots of balls and have no plans for the rest of the day. Took 6 hours to play 18. On the back nine you are frequently driving toward the tee box from the fairway with the group or two in front of you hitting right at you. Not a beginner's course.
The views are incredible from tee box to green on every hole.
It was cart path only the day I played because of heavy rain the previous days. Even with the rains the course seemed to drain pretty well and was in great shape. This course is almost maintained as well as a private course A+. If a private course is a 10 Quarry Ridge is a 9 - 9 1/2 I will be back soon...
Pretty track with fine separation between fairways
Because the greens had recently been aerated, they weren't in the best of condition. The fairways and tee boxes were fine. I would play again, but not for a month or so.
