Park Ridge Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Park Ridge Golf Course transformed what was formerly the site of the Lantana Landfill into a popular municipal course. Construction began on this unique undertaking in 2004 and the end result was certified by Audubon International as a Cooperative Sanctuary. The course climbs up to 85 feet, making it one of the highest golf courses in the county. It has a links-style layout that rolls across a variety of elevation changes, offering plenty of stunning views along the way. Such a contoured and hilly course is a rare occurrence in Florida. The golf course provides a challenge with some very tricky par 3s, several blind shots due to the rolling terrain, and strategically placed traps throughout but there are no water hazards except for one lateral hazard. There is also thick rough framing many of the holes.

Very Bad
We played it because you gave it a great rating. When we got there we were told all the greens were aerated and the back nine was closed. This meant that everyone who payed for 18 had to play the front nine again. To do so you had to cut in front of people who had legitimate tee times. the play was very slow and took us an hour and half longer than normal to get 18 in. We would not have booked this course and driven 1-1/2 hrs to have a very bad day, Very disappointed in you guys. I guess that we have to check your ratings vs actual course conditions if we book with you in the future
bad timing
when booked ,was not informed of airation of greens and fairways, was informed back 9 closed so played front twice, which was just airated monday and tuesday, thus slow pace of play and terrible putting conditions on very bumpy airated greens. played this course many tmes and always enjoyed it, just not under such conditions, as would be similar of any courses , when they go thru airation days ....
Course was just airated yesterday. Should be closed!
Great Course
My second time playing this course and I really like this course The changes in elevations are great Can't wait to play it again when i am in the area
First time playing here and it lived up to reviews. Loved the elevation changes and conditions were good even with greens just having been worked on. Course could use another Sandra or two here and there. Teamed up with fun partner and with 7am tee time we played in just under 3 hours. I will be back for sure.
Different than other South Florida courses and Great!
Beautiful different layout than other courses with lots of elevation changes. Not easy but loved it! The staff is so friendly and nice. Only problem is the golf carts but they’re replacing them soon. I’ll definitely be back!
Something Different in Florida
This was my first time playing this course but I did receive some assistance from my two playing partners who had played it many times. The course is NOT your typical Florida layout. It has numerous elevation changes, it is a links type course with a lot of gorse type of shrubbery. There are the usual water holes but the course was interesting and challenging and must be played more than once, It was worth the price and I would play it again.
.
Park Ridge is a nice course offering its unique challenges among South Florida courses - probably one of the few courses that plays with multiple elevations. And to be paired with some wonderful people - complete strangers - made it more enjoyable. It would have been a perfect afternoon were it not for the rude cartman who was angry for me not returning cart to their expected stations. But it’s all because of their own flawed systems. Instead of blaming the player, why not put a sign to drive cart farther up ahead. If it happens all the time, improve the system by putting up a sign where it could be easily seen.
