The Ridge Golf Course & Events Center

This was my first time on this course. I really enjoyed the variety of play provided by course layout although I would have preferred fewer and/or smaller bunkers. Pace of play was SLOW however, at over FIVE HOURS on a weekday afternoon - can't imagine what weekends are like. Did not see a marshal all day. They could use one.

This is one of the best courses in the area. It's very technical and challenging. Alway kept up well.

The greens were slow and had recently been cross mowed. Normally these multi level greens are a bear. But when you add the fact that the greens needed mowing and they were cross mowed; it made putting a nightmare.
Had I known; I never would have paid $57 for greens in this condition.

This has been on my list of places to play for a while and it was worth the drive from Sacramento (~50 minute drive). Staff was friendly and check in was easy. Driving range was only using mats instead of grass, but that’s not a huge deal. The layout of the course is really cool with some elevated tee boxes and some precariously placed bunkers. A good test of golf in the Foothills. The course was water logged in some areas, to the point where your foot would splash up some water. There were also some dirt and dead grass areas throughout. Not sure if there was a maintenance issue going on but I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt. The fact the course is less than 1/2 mile away from two killer breweries (Knee Deep and Moonraker) is just an added bonus. Glad I crossed it off my list!

Its been hot, but the course was wet showing over watering throughout the course. Some fairways were so wet that carts were prohibited which makes no sense. But it is a great course and fun to play.

Conditions were very nice. Hard to read the break's on the greens. Lol.

Utterly disgrace to the management of the course for not notifying in advance of the paving of the driveway way from the main road to the bag drop that is about a quarter mile. We were instructed to drive around and park on the rocky overflow parking lot. We could have our car axle broken on the rock (not some pebbles but baseball sized rocks) covered parking lot and then had to a shuttle cart to take us to the pro shop. Wasted good 15 minutes. This is outrageous. I have read several bad reviews on the management’s treatment of the players ( their income sources) but this one just hit the ceiling. They are not only indifferent to their customers but also lack the basic marketing and professionalism.

The course layout is nothing short of superb and the greens were honestly fastest which I like the most. Scenery is super with a lot of variety of trees and wild flowers and wildlife.

This is definitely one of the challenging championship courses that meet the USGA criteria. The management needs some customer relationships training and be more friendly and be professional. We’ll watch closely to see what or if they make some improvements in customer relationships before returning to this course.

The course is in great shape. The greens hold you shot and roll true. Alll we needed was someone to teach about 5 groups how to wave up the next group on the 12 hole par 3. Still a great course and groups spread out quickly.

Nice course. Just never use GolfNow. They rip people off. Just call the clubs individually. Greens fees were a lot cheaper than what GolfNow charges. I emailed them, but no answer. I would never use this App that trips people off .
