With a 133 rating from the blues, 132 from the whites and 119 from the reds, the course is thought to be one of the most challenging 6000 yard, par 71's in Canada. Architect Thomas McBoom carved this magnificent course utilizing the sloping hills and various outcrops of Canadian Shield terrain to full potential.

East of Parry Sound the award-winning Ridge at Manitou is considered a golfing sanctuary, surrounded by acres of unspoiled nature and Manitouwabing Lake, near Parry Sound. It is framed by rock outcroppings, and playing through forest and meadowland, it offers a unique experience on every hole. The Ridge at Manitou provides an enjoyable round for players of all abilities.

Spectacular scenery in the heart of the Canadian shield. The undulating fairways were in pristine shape. The slope ratings are high and the greens can be treacherous. The layout is kind to the average golfer with large landing areas but seldom are the greens on the same plane.

Officially opened in July 2005 (and voted best new course in Canada for 2006 by Golf Digest), the forest-lined holes at the Ridge are typically wide off the tee, then narrow as they bend past chunks of granite toward elevated greens. The best hole is the last, a 503-yard par five that doglegs left downhill, across a creek that slashes the length of the fairway. As you turn the corner, the hole opens up to a vista of water and trees, with the green teetering on the edge of the lake.

This 9 hole jewel is "A Thoughtfully Crafted Golf Experience" located in the heart of Muskoka, just 25 minutes from Bracebridge, Huntsville and Port Carling.

Included by the Toronto Star as one of "Muskoka's Group of Seven Picture-Perfect Courses", this gem could be the highlight of any vacation while passing through Muskoka. Architecturally designed with bentgrass tees, greens and fairways and featuring extraordinary gardens, this course is as visually impressive as it is challenging.
