Perfect weather, all good.

As we were told ahead of time, they were plugging the front 9 so we played the back 9 two times. NOTE: the Back 9 has since been plugged. The course was in great shape. The greens were fast and did not hold unless you know how to put a lot of spin on the ball. (not a complaint, just an observation). By now all the plugging has been done so take this review accordingly. If you hate traffic noise, maybe go elsewhere as this course has 3-4 holes that are near a road with constant traffic.

Coming out of hibernation

The Ridge is coming out of winter in pretty good shape, The greens were punched about 10 days before we played and they were still a little rugged. Challenging as always into the greens. Good test of golf

Great day

As always, the Ridge delivered as expected. The course was in great shape, putting was the name of the game. Rather tough greens when one hasn’t putted on greens like those in awhile. My one complaint is their driving range. It’s always been hitting off mats when ever I have played there. They do have a fair sized grass area in front of the mats but I have never hit off of it. Their mats were some what of a JOKE. As much play as they get I would think they could afford new mats. Also they only have a couple of range marker, how about more range flags with distance on them.

The Ridge

For winter conditions the course was in good shape. Fairways were damp in some areas, to be expected but very good lies, great turf conditions.

The Ridge in Auburn - 👍🏻

We would’ve rated this higher but recent rains and course condition (muddy and wet) weren’t the best. Nevertheless we will return soon as it is a very nice set up and good value.
PS: For the course maintenance team, it would be nice if you would fill the drinking water and club cleaners with water ! All were dry.

The course was not in very good shape. I used to be great. I was surprised to see how poor the fairways and tee boxes were.

This is winter golf so....

It was a beautiful sunny day and a perfect way to start off the New Year,but after the rain it was cart path only and VERY muddy and wet.This is probably why pace of play was slower then normal but still a fun day and as long as you were dressed for it comfortable and fun.Good thing about winter is ya don't have to worry about any Rattlesnakes cuz I have seen a few in the summer but they are good to have there and as long as you don't poke at them and leave them alone they will do the same.They want nothing to do with humans and given space they will go there own way always.
