Stone Ridge Golf Club

What Stone Ridge Golf Club does

Stone Ridge Golf Club is a privately held, public-access 18-hole golf course and country club located on 150 acres in Bowling Green, Ohio, approximately two miles off Interstate 75. The course was designed by architect Arthur Hills in a Scottish links style and features bent grass tees, fairways, and greens; the club is ranked among the Top 10 Best Public Courses in Ohio by GolfAdvisor (8th overall). The property includes a clubhouse accommodating up to 270 guests across a ballroom, cocktail area, patio, and four decorated event rooms, supporting multiple non-golf revenue lines.

The business operates across five revenue streams: public green fees, five-tier membership programs (Platinum, Gold, Silver, Junior, Social), food and beverage via the on-site Traditions Grille Bar & Restaurant (open to the public with themed weekly specials and seasonal Sunday brunch), wedding and banquet event hosting, and pro shop merchandise sales. Memberships are sold directly through the Director of Golf and offer advanced tee-time booking (7-21 days), GHIN handicap tracking, locker and bag storage, and dining discounts with no minimums or assessments. Events are sold directly through the Events Sales Director and include all-inclusive wedding packages with catering, bar service, and on-site coordination.

The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer with no intermediary channels: online tee-time booking through Quick18, phone-based membership and event sales, walk-in and reservation-based dining, and on-site retail. Marketing relies on the company website, Facebook, weekly email specials, and earned media on GolfAdvisor, The Knot, and WeddingWire. The club has been a member of the Toledo District Golf Association since 2008 and has received The Knot Best of Weddings (2020, 2025) and WeddingWire Couples' Choice (2020) recognitions. Stone Ridge is independently owned with no disclosed investors, parent company, or external funding.
