Willow Ridge at Willow Ridge Country Club

Willow Ridge Country Club sits in Harrison, a suburban community in Westchester County, New York, approximately twenty-five miles north of Manhattan. The course was designed by Maurice McCarthy, a regional architect active in the New York metropolitan area during the mid-twentieth century. McCarthy's work typically emphasized strategic routing over dramatic landforms, fitting courses into the rolling terrain characteristic of Westchester's residential landscape.

The property occupies wooded and gently rolling land typical of the lower Hudson Valley region. The routing works through mature tree corridors and across moderate elevation changes, with holes often framed by hardwood forests that provide definition and seasonal color. Water features and natural drainage patterns influence play on several holes, requiring golfers to navigate both lateral and strategic challenges rather than relying solely on length.

Willow Ridge functions primarily as a private country club serving its membership and their guests. The club maintains traditional country club amenities and operates within the established network of Westchester golf clubs, which include numerous courses designed during the golden age and post-war expansion periods. The setting reflects the suburban character of Harrison, where residential development and preserved green spaces coexist in close proximity to New York City.
