Elk Ridge Golf is located near Waskesiu Lake in central Saskatchewan, within the boreal forest region of Prince Albert National Park's periphery. The facility operates multiple eighteen-hole courses, with Tamarack and Aspen representing two of the routing options available to members and visitors. The courses are situated in terrain characterized by dense stands of spruce, pine, and the namesake aspen and tamarack trees, with natural elevation changes uncommon to the prairie provinces that define much of Saskatchewan's geography. The design takes advantage of the forested landscape, with fairways carved through mature timber and several holes playing along or across natural wetlands and creek corridors. The boreal setting provides a playing environment distinct from the open, links-influenced courses found elsewhere in the Canadian prairies. Doglegs are common given the tree-lined corridors, and accuracy off the tee is typically rewarded over distance. Water features appear on multiple holes, and the routing incorporates the property's natural contours to create variety in stance and approach angles. Elk Ridge serves as a resort destination in a region known primarily for lake recreation and national park access. The facility attracts golfers from Saskatoon and Regina as well as visitors to the Waskesiu Lake area during the summer season. The combination of forested terrain and northern latitude creates a relatively short playing season, with conditions typically favorable from late spring through early autumn.
