About Highlands Ridge North Golf Course

Highlands Ridge North stretches over 7,200 yards, making it a fit for players who favor length off the tee. The layout pairs wide, open fairways with fast greens, and five sets of tees allow golfers of varying abilities to find a suitable challenge.

The course was designed by architect Dave Harmon, who patterned it after Kauri Cliffs in New Zealand. Unusually for central Florida, the routing features noticeable elevation change, with holes climbing and dropping across the property. Those contours were created during construction, when large volumes of sand and soil were moved to build hills and elevated areas throughout the site.
