Thinking About Living in Ridglea Country Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Ridglea Country Club and the surrounding Fort Worth golf market.
Ridglea is Fort Worth's only 36-hole country club and, at roughly 1,600 members, one of its largest member-owned clubs -- a more accessible, larger-scale counterpart to the smaller, more exclusive Shady Oaks and River Crest. Its defining residential-integration signal is direct and literal: the neighborhood built up around it in the 1960s-1980s took the club's own name, Ridglea Country Club Estates.
Golf & Course
Two courses: the North (Family) Course, opened 1928, and the South (Championship) Course, opened 1968 -- narrower, smaller-green terrain on the North course versus a more open layout on the South.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Ridglea is private and member-only. No evidence was found of membership being bundled with or required for homes in Ridglea Country Club Estates -- buying a home in the neighborhood does not itself confer club access; membership is a separate club process.
