Valley Ridge Golf Club Review

The golf course is one of the best! Their restaurant Mulligans is awesome, good food, and the servers are great!

This course is always in fantastic condition and is one of the best values in Calgary. It is Absolutely one of my favourite courses to play

This bad review is for the rude attitude of one of the front desk (pro shop) staff member (one of the older gentleman wearing orange shirt today). I was asking him about the golf cart policy since this is my first time there (I'm from a small redneck town) and I'm not sure what the policy is. I was hoping that he would be more polite and willing when answering my question (as I asked him in a polite manner as well).
The course itself is nice and well maintained. Definitely a challenging course. The lounge is really nice too.

We had our wedding at Valley Ridge in August - we couldn't have asked for more amazing people to help us with our special day! Kaitlyn and all the Staff at Valley Ridge are great to plan your day with! Amazing venue with amazing scenery!

Course in great shape. Excellent 4 hour pace. Fabulous wine special in the restaurant. Loved it!

I have to say this is one of the most lovely fall weddings I have ever planned all thanks to the scenic backdrop that the ballroom at valley ridge has to offer! The staff and catering team are always on the ball. The food is flawless! They offer a great, quality package for couples planning a wedding.

Well maintained course, tough track, tee shots require accuracy, might want to limit the big dog. I had the benefit of playing with a member that gave some good advice otherwise I would've been short a couple more balls. Enjoyed the challenge!

This review is not for the golf course, it is for the original ski resort and pool complex that used to be on this spot. In 1959, a businessman bought up much of the area that is now Valley Ridge, and, intending to turn it into an amusement park of sorts, created just that. Happy valley included a campground, trail rides, a 50-meter indoor swimming pool, go-carts, trampolines, and a par 3 golf course. In 1962, Happy Valley became a winter sports destination with the instalment of a platter lift. This platter lift serviced four ski runs, and could lift 800 people per hour. In 1967, it was sold to an American investment group. This group invested very little into the complex, and it fell into disrepair. They tried selling it to the city, but the city rejected it, citing it was to far away from the city limits. In 1974, it was sold to a different US group, before Calgarian Bob Allen bought in in 1976. He ran the complex for a few years, before adding the 18 hole golf course. He later sold it to a Los Angeles group, that planned to create a Hollywood-North complex, but that plan never came to fruition. The pool, campground, and ski hill were demolished, and replaced with the Valley Ridge neighbourhood, while the golf course remains to this day in operation.

Great food and service! Tables all spaced well apart.
