Always Good

The Ridge is one of the courses I need to play at least once a year. I don't live close, but I'm willing to make the drive. This is a fun course with a great variety of holes that will challenge every type of player while offering some great scenery.

The course has a mountain feel as it has many elevation changes and works its way through some heavily forested areas. I love the dramatic blind tee shot on the 9th hole where a good drive will end up all the way down by the green. The 18th also offers a semi blind tee shot, but plays severely uphill to the clubhouse. It's a fun finisher.

The great combination of holes forces the player to make a lot of different decisions off of the tee, driver won't always be the best option. When it's time to swing the big stick the fairways are plenty wide with fair landing areas. It really is one of the funnest layouts around.

Conditions were great when we played. Greens were smooth, not too fast, but they rolled true. As usual a day at The Ridge did not disappoint.

Leave the driver at home

The course was in excellent condition. The staff was very friendly. The beverage cart was curiously absent on the front 9 but we were able to get refreshed a few times on the back 9. There wasn't a single hole when I felt comfortable using a driver due to the tight fairways...fairway woods, hybrids and irons ruled the day. Lots of sand in play. Gorgeous views, visually appealing approach shots. Pace of play was 2 hours 5 minutes on the front and 2.5 hours on the back where we waited about 5 minutes only once on hole 18. Even while the course is lined with homes I never felt in danger of hitting any of them :)

One of the best courses in Colorado

I believe this course is just as fun and scenic as the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. The greens were fantastic.

Great Layout

Course is in good condition for the early season and golf path only was finally lifted. Front 9 was reasonably fast but slowed on the back to 2.5 hrs. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

Challenging with great views

Played on a Sunday afternoon, course was in good condition for this time of year and pace of play was fine. Only negative was cart path only rule which we did not know ahead of time, seems to be a frequent issue at this course. Given the significant elevation changes this maybe too much for some. There are great views from various holes, would play again.
