Ridgetown Golf & Curling Club has been a cornerstone of Kent County’s sports community since 1923. The 9-hole course offers a classic parkland design featuring mature trees, small greens, and a layout that rewards precision and local knowledge.
The course plays around 3,100 yards for nine holes and features a variety of hole lengths that test both iron play and driving accuracy. Subtle elevation changes and doglegs add visual interest, while well-positioned bunkers keep even short holes challenging.

Ridgetown may not be long or flashy, but it’s golf with heart—a course that knows exactly what it is and delivers every time.
