Course not taken care of.

This place needs a lot of work. The range is dry and they are just letting it die. The putting green is the worst I’ve ever seen. Can’t even really describe it. The course needs water as it’s burnt in most places. There are many better options in this area.

Good layout

Course has a lot of well designed holes and requires some thought when it comes to strategy. Well known water issues still evident in places but the fairways were very nice if you’re hitting from where you’re supposed to be hitting from. Greens had some bare spots on a couple holes but they were fast and true.

Save your money, course is in terrible condition, they should be ashamed of charging $80 a round. One of the greens had 2 standing puddles of water, the fairway on the last par 5 was covered in range balls as the range is right next to it. Most greens had massive dead spots.Terrible course.

Decent course with horrid pace of play

After 9 holes, we mentioned to the Marshall that it took 2 hours 45 minutes. We waited every hole, often 3 groups on a hole. He said that sounds right. Obviously, the course just wants your cash and could care less about the experience. Unfortunately, we would NOT recommend playing this course to real golfers in spite of a decent layout.

No Marshalling in afternoon! 5 hour round

We knew it was a beautiful day and everyone would be out on the course. There was a marshal early on the front 9 who said there was a slow group only playing 9 holes. We were moving reasonably well until we hit #10, there were 3 sets of golfers all the way until 18, so it made it an awful experience. Never saw a marshal on backside at all. Lot's of guys in scramble just drinking alot and not playing in a reasonable pace. You would have thought that would have been quicker, but they were all just messing around. Not fun and not coming back. To make it worse when I got back to the clubhouse, to use the rest room it was closed!

2nd chance. Find something else.

1st time we played back in October the course was pretty good. Some draining problem and dead spots but ok. THIS time it was completely unkept. Weed grass in the fairways. Fairways spotty green but mostly look like it was burnt out already. Considering other courses in the area are fully greened out. Greens look like they had not been cleaned all year. Sand traps overgrown and a wreck. Worse course I have played in a year. For $95 ea, which was what we paid in October there are to many options in that area to play this one again.

The Ridge

Golf course fairways were in decent shape some of the greens and tee boxes need some TLC. There were quite a few wet spots due to leaking irrigation and there were a number of bunkers that needed attention - overgrown with weeds or lacking sand.

Fun layout

Course has some great holes and was very scenic. Greens were beat up and the bunkers were not in playable condition. The speed of the greens was good and the fairways were in good shape. It was a little pricey for the condition but will definitely play it again.

Great Value!

My husband and daughter had a great time playing on The Ridge! There are great views from some of the higher areas of the course and they got to see a lot of wildlife. It was a great experience!!

This was a Tuesday after Memorial Day weekend. Their T-time was 11:45 and they had the place to themselves! Bring snacks for your bags, and be prepared for lots of fun!
