Made it out to the Ledges yesterday... what a course. While just a little bit of a drive from the main downtown area, Ledges offers some spectacular scenery, especially on the back nine. Everyone who works there is friendly, and the on-course restrooms are the cleanest I have seen on a public course. Free range balls, a really good practice facility with multiple practice greens, and carts with GPS. The price point is better than that of other nearby courses, and its much easier to get a time.
The course right now is in great condition even though its starting to dry out and heat up. The tee boxes are perfect, the fairway and rough are in excellent shape as well. The Sand is a little heavier than some courses, but still well maintained. The only flaw I could mention is that a few of the greens were dealing with some heat related spotting and dryness, none of which effected the play. The greens rolled true and picked up speed as the temperature increased.
This course needs to be on the list when you head out to St. George.

This was course #2 in our golf group outing in the St. George area. It had the best scenery, especially through the back nine. Course conditions it came in #2 behind Black Desert. Rack rate was $125.

The course is a links style course with wide open fairways and nice greens. Tall thick grass beyond the rough made it difficult to find your ball if you landed there. Greens did not hold your shots and were fast. Most of us landed short and rolled it up to the green. Course was nice and green throughout. Greenside bunkers contained slightly compacted white sand but still easy to hit out off. Carts had GPS showing distances to all shots. Hole#16 Par 5 tees were moved up due to construction reducing it to only 380 yards.

Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Restaurant and clubhouse were very nice and served good food.

Greens had a light top dressing, but are rolling great. Course conditions—especially given the heat of the summer—are solid.

First time playing here and, though probably biased because I shot my first sub-80 round, I really liked this course. Conditions are fantastic. Greens are firm and barely leave a ball mark on even a towering wedge shot. POP I finished in under 3 hours as a single (groups in front let me play through). Layout is enjoyable. Not a lot of OB like you find at some courses out here in Southern Utah, mostly lined fairways with residences, but plenty of room to hit good tee shots.

Back 9 is the more difficult half with a lot of risk/reward holes. Hole 15 being a great example with a driveable green but it’s downhill and short/long you are OB.

If you only had one course to play in the area I’d lean towards Sand Hollow. But if you don’t want to drive out of St George area - Would definitely recommend the Ledges

This was my first round on a 3-day golf binge in St. George. I had a 7:00 tee time (first off) and they had me paired with a threesome. The pro shop guy actually suggested I go off first by myself, so I didn't even have to ask to be the rabbit! Had to wait on maintenance a few times on the back nine, but overall a very quick round. $55 morning rack rate for summer. Decent, but actually one of the more expensive courses in the area during the August offseason.

The course was in good overall shape for late summer. Looked a little better from afar than close-up. Everything was green and looked good in pix, but the turf was a little spotty throughout. Some dead spots, some thin spots and some great spots. More than adequate for summer. Rough mostly pretty good with some clumpy sections here and there. Tee boxes good, but a few of the whites could use some leveling out. I was in one bunker. It was nicely raked/dragged, but the sand was quite thin and firm underneath. Greens very good. Receptive and rolling well at medium speeds with some minor blemishes here and there. They are shutting down next week for aeration and some other maintenance, so give them at least a few more weeks after that.

Enjoyable course. I knew going in this course has a reputation as a "tale of two nines" with a so/so front and a more dramatic back. That is certainly the case. The front nine is very wide open without much trouble to get into. Big, undulated greens providing the only real source of challenge on this side that plays with more of a links feel. The back nine indeed gets more interesting as you head into the canyons. It is actually not as dramatic as I expected, but there are certainly some killer holes and views here with the desert and red rock canyons all around. Not sure it's quite a "must play" for the area, but it's definitely worth checking out as one of the better B-tier courses.

Played 6-18-18 mid morning as a single for $55 including cart. Tee boxes were okay, semi-lush but I did have to search for a level stance on most of them. Fairways were in good shape, mostly lush with some brown areas and minimal roll out. Rough was in good shape with some thin spots but easy to hit from. Was not in any bunkers but they looked descent. Greens were in real good shape, semi-firm, rolling true and fast. Started on the back side which has some great views and nice changes in elevation. Front side is kind of boring with mostly flat wide open holes.

Played 9/11 in beautiful early morning weather. But the course conditions were very poor, given the green fees. Customer service was terrific. Front 9 was not in good condition at all. Very bad tee boxes; lots of bare areas in the fairways, not to mention they needed mowing; sand traps hard/crusty; rough at 1 inch because it had not been mowed down. Thank goodness the greens were good, though they had a lot of repaired ball marks showing. Now we go to the back 9. And you would have thought you were on a different course and of course, the back 9 (IMO) is what makes this course with a great layout of holes and scenery. Tee boxes good; fairways good; greens very nice; sand traps (still hard/crusty); greens very nice; rough still at 1 inch and difficult, not to mention the numerous out of bounds along the fairways (hence the name Ledges). I would play here again, but not in late summer, if it can be avoided.

First time ever playing this course...wasn't sure what to expect. Read reviews and google mapped the course to try and get an idea of what we were in for before we got there. Had to remember that the Utah border is an hour time diff from Nevada, so don't forget that if you decide to play there. Greeter told us that the front was wide open and the back was target golf. We played from the tips, and didn't feel that way at all. The front was definitely wide open, but the back was more like a Champions Club at the Retreat or Black Gold - definitely tighter, but still could pull the driver on just about every par 4 or 5.

PoP - 9/10. Got out just the 2 of us, an hour early. Pro Shop told us "if you don't need to hit, you can get out ahead of 3 4-somes and fly around", and we jumped on it. We finished the first round in 3 hours, and only took that long because I had to deal with an issue with our landscape guy that took about 10 minutes making phone calls.

Greens - 7/10. Would say they were running about a 12. Some of the holes were cut in spots that were impossible to hit - that kind was kind of crappy, but really the only complaint I could possibly have. Even the greeter suggested that the Superintendent didn't like golfers with where they were cut that day.

Fairways - 7/10. Think I counted a total of 4 brown spots on the fairways. They do a great job here, and there were zero complaints here.

Boxes - 9/10. Zero complaints here. Few spots needed sanding, so we took care of that, but always found flat, good coverage. Seemed pretty consistent with the fairways in terms of thickness.

Bunkers - 6/10. Soft, fluffy sand. Visually pleasing. No complaints here.

Overall - this is definitely a course that we'll add to our rotation when we go to mesquite. It's about a 45 minute drive from mesquite, so not too far at all. They had a deal going that day that gave us lunch as well.

Played Fri. 03/20 on a birthday weekend trip to Mesquite/St. George.
Course is in excellent shape. Tee boxes are lush, fairways are great and the greens are in very good shape. One of the few courses I have played where I could see my tee shots rolled 30-40 yards after landing. Holes 11-16 are very interesting as they are set in the hills.
