Wilderness Ridge sits beside Lincoln's Wilderness Park, on land the owners began assembling in 1987. Grading of the golf course started in 1998, and the course opened in August 2001.
The clubhouse followed two years later and was named The Lodge, echoing the property's wilderness theme through its log construction, natural stone landscaping and mounted game displayed throughout the building. The timber came from Hamilton, Montana, supplied by Rocky Mountain Log Homes, a company that harvests only standing dead trees. The structure was hand-scribed and assembled in Montana, then taken apart, hauled to Lincoln and rebuilt on site.
