HeatherRidge Golf Course is a nine-hole course with all the challenges of a full-length course. It's an ideal round for when you don't have time to play 18 holes. Water has a prominent presence throughout thanks to a creek that winds through the entire course with tributaries that snake in and out of the holes and there are also ponds that come into play. You'll find water on a total of seven holes. There are a few other tricky spots to watch out for as well, including subtle breaks in the greens. Hitting straight is the key to scoring well and both accuracy and creative shot-making skills are needed. HeatherRidge G.C. has appeal for players of all skill levels and the affordable rates make it doubly appealing.

Heather Ridge did not disappoint.

Tee boxes, fairways, and greens all in good shape. Most bunkers were playable. Few bunkers needed attention. The practice chipping area also in good shape. Had fun playing 9 in 2 hours. Went for a burger and beer afterwards at the patio bar which was excellent. Carts do not have GPS but have excellent seating and ran well. All staff were friendly and attentive. Good value for the money spent. I'll definitely be playing there again.

Course is well maintained.

Very well maintained fairways and overall course. Easy play even for amateur. No up and down hills.

Almost 5 Stars, But...

I REALLY wanted to give 5-stars overall. The course is laid out nice, and in good shape... for the most part. The pro shop staff were very friendly and accommodating, and even the Starter/Ranger was friendly and helpful (and I typically don't have many nice things to say about them!). The reason for subtracting a star was the condition of a few greens. Bare spots and clover! I hope this gets fixed soon, because other than that, the course and staff were on point!

Winter Round

Considering it’s early December, the course was in good condition. Tee boxes and fairways were hard but playable. The greens had been aerated recently so it was challenging to get good reads when putting.
