Sioux Center, Iowa
The Ridge Golf Club is an 18-hole Sioux Center golf course designed and constructed in and around two large drainage basins that are divided by a prominent "ridge" upon which the clubhouse area is located. Each basin contains 9-holes laid out in a parkland style arrangement. Views from both the residential and mixed-use commercial areas are generally downhill across a park like setting and are frequently 1/3 to 1/2 mile across to the next residential area. This gives the course a very open and unrestricted feeling creating comfortable playing conditions and the ideal relationship to and for the homes and businesses that are adjacent.
