Maple Ridge, a stalwart of Columbus, Georgia golf, presents a classic challenge etched into the region's rolling landscape. This is a member's only club that provides an escape from the public links. Designed in the early 1960s, the course at Maple Ridge is a parkland layout defined by its mature trees and subtly undulating fairways. It is not exceedingly long by modern standards, but favors strategic play and controlled approaches, requiring golfers to think their way around the course. The greens are well-guarded and demand precision, so you better bring your short game. While Maple Ridge hasn't hosted national championships, it remains a respected venue within the Georgia golf community. The club has a loyal membership known for its deep-rooted love of the game, and its members celebrate the game in a less commercial way, without the pressures of daily public play. Maple Ridge is known among its members as a place of community, where tradition is honored and Southern hospitality thrives in a down-to-earth setting, where competition is respected but the true competition is against oneself. The club's "Ridge Burger" is a member favorite, enjoyed with a cold drink after a friendly round.
