About this course

The Ridge at Northview Golf & Country Club occupies elevated terrain in Surrey, British Columbia, approximately 45 kilometers east of Vancouver. Designed by Arnold Palmer and opened in the mid-1990s, the course takes advantage of natural topography that provides significant elevation changes and views across the Fraser Valley toward distant mountain ranges. The routing moves through a mix of mature forest and open corridors, with several holes playing along ridgelines that give the course its name. Palmer's design incorporates strategic bunkering and water hazards on multiple holes, requiring thoughtful club selection and course management. The layout features a variety of hole lengths and angles, with doglegs that reward well-positioned drives and approach shots that must navigate both elevation and greenside protection. The greens are moderately contoured, and the conditioning standards reflect the club's role as a host venue for competitive golf. Northview gained prominence in Canadian golf when it hosted the Air Canada Championship, a PGA TOUR event, for several years in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The tournament brought professional golf to the Vancouver area and showcased the Ridge course to a national audience. The club operates as a semi-private facility with both member and public access, making it one of the more accessible championship-caliber courses in the Lower Mainland region.

Getting there

The journey to Northview Golf & Country Club begins at Vancouver International Airport, a swift thirty-minute drive east across the Fraser River into Surrey's rolling suburban landscape. Private arrivals may utilize Boundary Bay Airport or the smaller Pitt Meadows facility, both offering discreet access to the region's golf corridor. The route traces Highway 1 before turning south through increasingly pastoral terrain, where the urban sprawl of Greater Vancouver yields to tree-lined fairways and the quiet residential enclave that cradles Northview - a serene transition that belies the proximity to one of Canada's most dynamic metropolitan centers.
