Bristol Ridge Golf Course

Pace of play for a weekend round was not maintained or managed well at all. Other patrons need to learn proper golf etiquette and allow faster groups to play through.

This is the second time playing Bristol Ridge. It is an above average public course with a very nice layout for Better and Average players. Reasonable elevation changes and hazards make you think about your options. Excellent cart paths for an out-of-the-way course. Private setting, nice putting green, mediocre driving range and limited pro shop. We played in terrible weather, but saw the potential for later in the year. Course as of May 9, 2014 has some fairway damage from the winter, although greens were in good condition.

Greens were punched about a week ago, but healing well - very playable! Was a cool day, so the course was fairly open and our round went quickly (2-some in a cart).

A handful of holes require some good shot making to avoid the trouble, but most are fairly wide open and welcoming.

Moderate amount of yardage markings on sprinkler heads in addition to the 200-150-100 yard markers.

This course was nice and had some difficult holes. Overall it was just okay for us. We drove about 50 minutes from the eastern suburbs and feel we have nicer courses closer to us on the east side. We received a great deal through GolfNow, and that was a good way to try out a new course without spending too much money and not knowing what to expect. It is not on the top of our list of courses to return to.

Very nicely maintained course, It's worth the extra driving distance to play.

We all enjoyed the challenge of Bristol Ridge and even though we have had little rain for the past month, the course was in great shape. Great value.

twice in one week, our group encountered unpleasant staff in the clubhouse, and were put in the middle of tournaments. both rounds took nearly 6 hours to complete. our first day, we were told that "they were going to call us to warn about the tournament, but never got around to it". the track is one of my favorites, and the fairways are well maintained, but the rough is dead and cement-like. unfortunately, due to poorly run operations, over crowding and rude personnel, i will not play this course again.

Fun golf course. No forced carries. 11 is a neat hole. Course could use much needed rain, but well maintained despite the lack of rain. Greens are fast and in great shape. It was a fun day.

Loved Bristol Ridge. Conditions were great, course was challenging and we had perfect weather. Stopped for a beer after in the clubhouse, which is also very nice and were surprised to get a discount on the first beer. 2 bucks for a tap!!

The rate of play was slow; lots of people out; beautiful day. Decent value for the money.

for the money and for playing it , it is worth the drive and playing it. My golfing partners love the course and that hoped to be back playing it in the future.

This course is fun. The layout is great however it can be a little danerous for errant shots. We had a few balls land close to us when we were on the tee box. Overall, this is a very nice course for the average to above average golfer.

Had a great time but had to wait on every hole on the back nine

everything was just great but the burger we ordered after nine holes was a frozen thing and didnt look very appealing and they had no mustard? how do you run out, anyway the drinks after were good, and clean and well mowed

Fun course to play slow on the weekends late in the afternoon like most courses great views

For the price we paid, this may have been the best deal ever! The course was in great shape and played very fast.

Bristol Ridge Golf Course was well-maintained and challenging. Pace of play was good. However, the Staff employee at the check-in desk was unwelcoming. It would have been nice to hear "Welcome to our golf course. We're glad you chose to golf with us today."

This course has good character as the holes have a nice layout...with the exception of number 5. Number 5 is a par 5 and it is by far the worst hole I have ever played...you will see why when you get to it. To start off, the fairway is relatively tight on your drive as you have to keep your shot on the left side of the fairway to have any decent look on your second shot. Your second shot is not fun either as everything slopes severely to the left (towards the rough and the trees/hazard) and more than likely you will not be able to see the pin and this hole has a good right dogleg. I have played this course about 6 times and the best position I have been in after my drive was in the trees on the left side (almost in the hazard) and I luckily had a shot and could see the pin. For the third shot, you will more than likely be hitting to a blind/uphill green. If you know what you are doing, this is not a really hard hole but it is still by far the worst hole I have every played/seen and I have played a lot of courses. I have not found one person that disagrees with this. Other than the fifth hole, the course is very fun to play. Typically you can play in 3.5-4 hours but this time it took 4.75 hours.

Bristol Ridge is a relatively easy drive from the Twin Cities and well worth the trip! Fun layout, usually in good condition with a cordial staff. Good value for the money when booked on GolfNow.

The course was in great shape! It is amazing especially with the extended unusual cool weather we've been having in the midwest! The high was in the low 60's on June 2!!
