Closing soon

If you like hitting off of nothing but weeds and sand then this course is for you. I don’t think a grounds crew has touched this course in a couple months. Halfway through the round the starter came out to berate us for playing through a slow group and said that since our tee time was after theirs we have to wait on them all day.

The course is apparently closing in a couple months, undergoing renovations and eventually opening under new ownership. I’m pretty sure they are just trying to make as much off the place without doing any maintenance in the meantime.

The course has an intriguing layout with multiple elevation changes so with significant renovations it could be great. Until then, you couldn’t pay me to waste my time on that track again.

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing Sanctuary Ridge Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Great course - fast greens

Course was in great condition with nice fairways and fast greens. Only condition issue was GUR on 11 that I hadn’t been told about and some of the tee boxes needed some TLC. Some complain about the fast greens but the faster the better, like the pros play. Pace of play was super slow, but it was a Sunday morning so not much better you can expect. Awesome layout, would play again.

Exciting layout, great conditions

This course is full of fun and exciting holes to play. While I'm sure the holes are not perfect replicas, many of them feel like you are playing the exact one the pros would play. I would definitely play here again. The course condition is excellent, fast and smooth greens.

Free beer

After paying for this round of golf you get two free draft beers... and they were needed. The course was in terrible condition with numerous weeds throughout the fairway and patches on the greens. Overall I would not return to this course because of the conditions but if you want beer and just golf it could work for you.

Perfect (for the price)

This course is the best $9.00 course I've ever played on and better than most of the $30.00 ones. There's a mix of straight, dog-legs, flat, uphill, etc. throughout the course. I would recommend driving this course whenever possible though because there are some long (would be) walks between holes.

This course is unique and fun.

The layout is something like I've never seen before with enough challenges to keep it interesting yet not too difficult. The condition so up to par with other courses I have played at with this price range, very good. I'd rate my experience with this course as excellent.
