Cedar Ridge Golf Course

This updates my previous review. Our group of travelling seniors played September 13, 2016, for a mere $15 with an e-mailed coupon the course sent to us. Course layout is as previously described, but current conditions are very poor after the brutally hot summer we've endured. Fairways are VERY firm, tee boxes are littered with broken tees, bunkers are solid, and only the greens bear a semblance of reasonable conditions. Thus, the effects of sparing irrigation. During our round, w actually saw a few fairways with activated sprinklers...didn't know they had those at all. This round was $15...and not a penny more. Darn shame, since the staff is always so decent. Hope the winter treats the cours well: it needs water...and TLC. Not currently recommended.

Our group of travelling seniors plays here 3 or 4 times a year, most recently 12-30-08.

The course is very simple, mostly flat, especially the front nine, and not a huge challenge. Several holes look similar, but there are a few distinctive ones (#10, #11, and #15 come to mind). Tee boxes are smallish, but level; fairways are generous; greens are mostly small and flat, although a few are heavily contoured (#4, #5, #7, #10, and #17); bunkers are modest in size and number, and when last we played, were not in great shape.

Clubhouse is spartan, but the attached restaurant/bar is excellent, especially the crab soup.

Staff is always friendly, and the price is right. Some better courses fairly close by, such as The Links at Gettysburg ($$$), and Flatbush and Quail Valley are both under $30. Having said all that, Cedar Ridge is OK, and offers a change of pace at a modest price.
