As a Ridgefield resident, I may be biased, but I rank RGC overall as one of the best municipal courses I've played. The overall condition of the course is excellent for a public course. The front nine lulls you into a false sense of security with its wide fairways and relatively easy holes. The back nine is much more challenging with tighter fairways that require more accurate tee shots. Overall, great course and staff!

Outstanding municipal course, well-run, challenging and fun at the same time. Course condition is typical of a municipal course but the rates are quite competitive. I recommend it.
