About Oakland Ridge Estates
Built on Experience. Designed for the Future.
Oakland Ridge Estates was created with a simple vision: to offer homeowners the space, setting, and quality they deserve. Nestled among the rolling hills just outside Dubuque, the development combines the peace of country living with the convenience of being just minutes from everything the city has to offer.
Behind Oakland Ridge Estates are two local entrepreneurs who have spent decades earning the trust of homeowners throughout the Tri-State area. By combining their expertise in site development, construction, and custom homebuilding, Kevin Wernimont and Mark Gudenkauf have created a neighborhood where thoughtful planning and quality craftsmanship come together.
Their shared commitment is simple: create a community they would be proud to call home themselves—one where every lot offers opportunity, every home is built with care, and every homeowner receives the personal attention they deserve.
