Heron Ridge Golf Club is home to a well-rated and always popular golf course. This tree-lined and open parkland layout should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Plenty of golfing challenge, a well-crafted design and usually good upkeep all contribute to the appeal of this course.
Heron Ridge features 14 holes where either lakes, water hazards or natural wetlands come into play. When water is not present the course is flanked by tall oaks, beech and elm trees, as well as occasional housing. Natural depressions and gentle elevation changes create pleasant variations in the terrain. A course to include on your play list if you are in the area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
