The Ridges Golf Course

The Ridges Golf Course is an 18-hole course located in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin, featuring two distinctly different nine-hole layouts. The front nine emphasizes length with man-made hazards, while the back nine showcases natural challenges created by the landscape. The back nine begins on an actual ridge with elevated tee shots overlooking towering pines, Buena Vista Creek, and a flourishing valley floor more than 80 feet below. This section is characterized by wooded, tight fairways where many members recommend leaving the driver in the bag.

The course presents an enjoyable yet challenging experience, with the back nine being notably more demanding than the front. The terrain transitions from the front nine's manicured layout to the back nine's natural, wooded environment. The Ridges distinguishes itself among Central Wisconsin golf options through its unique design and challenging gameplay. The course is known for its high-quality maintenance and regular improvements. A notable feature includes hole #11, a 100-yard par 3 with a hole-in-one challenge promotion. The facility also offers an outdoor patio with views overlooking hole #10 and Buena Vista Creek, along with dining amenities.
