Great course

I play this course about 10 times a summer. I played their last round of the year today. They are closed until spring. This is one of my favorites. Course was in great shape.

Good test

Played on a day with a breeze, which kicks the links vibe up a notch. Rough was long and thick so it is penalizing if you get in the wrong areas. Greens rolled well. Overall really solid setup and well-maintained.

Hidden gem

This course is off the beaten path....to say the least! But man is it gorgeous! The tees were a little backed up but everyone seemed to keep pace once we got going. There are a couple par 3's that get backed up bit it's nothing egregious. The layout is a lot of fun and the conditions are excellent! I played the tips because it's only 6500, but the next ones up are less than 6, so I can't do that. If there's a decent wind ... the 6500 is all you will need, trust me! I met a couple awesome guys and we played 18. I will definitely be back.

The definition of “hidden gem”

I love this course. It is definitely linksy with minimal trees. I love the design and the conditions of tees, fairways and greens are always top notch. The only knock is that the bunkers aren’t up to the same level as the rest but given their price point, that isn’t surprising (considering bunkers are the highest cost to maintain). It is a course I could play every day!

Hidden Gem

This is a beautiful course set off the beaten path. My only complaint would be the length of the rough. Just a bit too long for my liking, so prepare for that. Still, I recommend playing this course to all levels of golfers.

Still a great course

Having not played Hunter's Ridge for over 10 yrs I was hopeful it was still in as good a condition as i remembered and i was not disappointed. The fairways and greens are very well maintained and the speed of the greens was quite good. There had been a massive storm during the night before we played, not only was the course open for play but it had drained exceptionally well, only a very few areas with any noticeable standing water and those were not really in play. Great value and a must play in the Howell/Brighton area.
