Pace of play was not as usual. Far too many twosomes. Front tee players hitting into back tee players and visa versa, This slowed the pace down.

Still waiting on maintenance to repair cart paths and paint the speed bumps yellow for over 2 months now. This is a safety hazard.

Challenging Layout

Rural setting for this course carved out of the woods.
Was in good shape. Can lose lots of balls if you get off the fairway. Great value for the money and appreciated the friendly staff.

Great course, fantastic value

There are a lot of good courses in the greater Rockford area, but I haven’t found a combination of value of course than Silver Ridge. With a Hot Deal off GolfNow, I played 18 with a cart for $18. Had a fantastic time despite donating many a golf ball to the trees.
