Very good experience

This was my first time playing Whispering Ridge. I had played the sister course at Lakeridge Links and really enjoyed myself. I brought a friend with me this time and we both had a great experience at Whispering Ridge. I will definitely be back for more rounds in the future as you can't beat the value for the price.

Construction

The course is being changed do to construction of homes around the holes. Much of the area is torn up, many holes have been shortened. Lots of weed on the tee boxes, bunkers not playable, even though there are rakes???? Used to play this many times a year, I think this will be my last for a long while.

Course is under construction

Wait for another month for the reconstruction to complete unless you don’t mind the tee boxes on the fairways and bull dozers running around with noise and dirt.

Lost in Transition

Major renovations throughout Course resulting in compromised Tee pads and blowing dirt adjacent to most Fairways. Light volume of players make pace of play idyllic. Be prepared to play to what you paid.

Terrible front nine

The course was extremely wet, soggy, muddy. Holes 5 and 6 were off limits. There was construction completely around the perimeter of the course for whatever reason we do not know. We got our cart stuck in the mud, we had to get the pro shop to send someone out to help us find hole #7 and barely any of the tee areas had a sign with the hole number on it. They looked to have been removed. The back 9 was much better than the front 9. Not recommended at this time, unless it's free

Only 16 Holes - Not 18

Whispering Ridge is now only 16 holes due to construction going on around the course (may be temporary) but they don’t mention anything on the GolfNow or TeeOff website. Course was super wet - almost unplayable! Carts were very dirty and don’t have USB’s.
They claim that the rate is lower because they only have 16 holes available for play but with the course in such poor condition it still wasn’t worth it.

Course disrupted by Construction

I was not made aware at time of booking that the course was being impacted by construction of houses. Two holes were completely closed and a third one was shortened to a par 3. The holes that were open were in reasonable shape for the time of year but there was construction all around, noisy, and you had to deal with mud and temporary barriers when moving about the course.
