The Ridge Golf Club

This is now my favorite public course in all of Erie. If you haven't been to the Ridge since it used to be Crab Apple, you have to try it out! The new owners are great and have really turned this course around. Greens roll true and are very smooth. It's open and forgiving but some holes can be challenging. Major potential to become a private course.

I had a great playing this course today. Joe make me feel like a was local. The course was wet due to heavy rains the night before (all courses in the area were wet) and for the most part it did change the hitting conditions. The Pro Shop was nice with a good selections of clothes and equipment. The greens were great shape, with very good fairways (I didn't lose many balls, other then poor play on my part). The carts were clean and in good shape (USB charger in cart). Staff and other players were very friendly. I understand this place has new ownership and they are planning to add a short game area and a hitting net to warm up in the next year. Currently no sand traps (no complaints from me). FYI if your using a GPS golf watch, the course currently comes up under Crab Apple Ridge Golf Course and not The Ridge Golf Course (as of 08/14/2021), I'm assuming this will change next year as they update the design. I love the online tee time option, as I booked after business hours once I got in town. I wish they had coffee available this morning (Saturday). I will be back again the next time I'm in the area. Thanks!

A friend and I played The Ridge yesterday for the first time and it will now be my home course. Everything was fantastic from the moment we drove up until we left was A+++++! The course was in pristine condition. Tee boxes were mowed and mostly flat, fairways were 99.9% plush and the greens were beautiful. The overall looks of the entire facility has the appearance and feel of a resort-style destination course. I can't recommend it enough. Go play it and see for yourself.
