Thirteen holes. Not nine, not eighteen. Sunset Ridge operates on its own terms. The layout sits on relatively gentle terrain in Northfield, threading through mature trees without dramatic elevation swings. Private clubs in the North Shore suburbs tend toward walkable designs, and this one follows that tradition. The routing keeps consecutive tees reasonably close to prior greens. At 67 on the walkability scale, expect a comfortable stroll with nothing that will leave you winded. The unusual hole count means rounds move differently here. Shorter than a full eighteen, longer than a quick nine. A genuine outlier worth experiencing on foot.
