History
The Tom Fazio-designed Ridge at Back Brook is the ultimate result of a ‘dream’ of its owner and creator, Joel Moore, and with the club, Moore provides a vivid glimpse into what he thinks about a lot – even in his sleep. Lots of people talk about ‘realizing’ dreams, but for Moore, his story’s actually true. “One morning, I think it was a Sunday, I woke up my wife and told her I was going to build a golf-only, private, exclusive golf club and have Tom Fazio design it,” Moore said. “And she kind of looked at me in bewilderment and went right back to sleep – she probably thought I was hallucinating.”
Moore’s dream became a reality in 2002, when The Ridge at Back Brook officially opened. The golf course, along with the service from the staff, is all part of what Moore calls the ‘Ridge Experience’ — one that starts when you pull up onto the club’s property, with 300-acres spread out before you.
