Pine Ridge Golf Resort
Pineridge Golf Resort is a 9 hole golf course and RV resort located 45 minutes west of Edmonton at Seba Beach. Our Golf Resort is central to Spruce Grove / Stony Plain, Drayton Valley, Edson and Mayerthorpe and in close proximity to Lake Wabamun, Lake Isle and Lac Ste. Anne. Come and enjoy a pleasantly unique experience at a reasonable cost in the rolling hills of the north-western tip of Lake Wabamun, Alberta. Opened in 1972, this impeccably maintained and mature golf course is a favorite among the local cottage crowd. It’s picturesque appeal and lush fairways welcome beginners, but will challenge even the most avid golf enthusiast. Pleasantly lined with mature trees our fairways are surprisingly forgiving but our traditional greens demand a target approach shot. Our signature restaurant, “The Nine Iron Grill” is quoted as the best place to dine in the area! Each year our menu additions bring new life and enthusiasm to the grill. Healthy and tasty options such as our famous “Pineridge Burger”, specialty coffees and gourmet salads are a perfect ending or beginning to an enjoyable round of Golf. Visitors can enjoy a light meal in the fully licensed clubhouse or watch the golfers go by on the covered deck. Consider booking your next tournament with one of the friendly staff and have your function catered to perfection. We are now taking tournament bookings for the 2012 season
