By creating an 18-hole golf course on the closed Lantana Landfill, Palm Beach County and the Solid Waste Authority turned a useless piece of property into a popular community asset.A visit to Park Ridge Golf Course represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Lake Worth trip planner to plot your vacation.
Originally closed in 1987, the Solid Waste Authority and Palm Beach County began construction of this unique facility in 2004.
Topping 85 feet at its highest point it just may be the highest golf experience in the County, and while heaven and earth was not moved to build the course, over 645,000 cubic yards of fill was imported to create contours and cover the specialized irrigation system.
The golf course which was opened to the public in March of 2007 has not only received engineering and environmental awards, it has also been certified by Audubon International as a cooperative sanctuary.

Built on a trash dump this golf course features rare elevation changes. Not the toughest or longest or tightest course but fun to play and kept in decent shape. A few blind shots where hills...

I needed 2 tee time to accommodate my golf group and the pro shop booked my tee times. The entire staff from pro shop to starter was super friendly. We enjoyed the course. It was in very good shape and the greens couldn't have been in any better shape. We will definitely come back here.
