Cider Ridge Golf Club

Course was in awesome shape considering 4.5 inches of rain over the last few days. Greens were in great shape and rolled true. Great golf course would recommend it to anyone.

Great course, awesome layout and the price was unbeatable!!!!

I live in Atlanta and I had to go to Birmingham for some dental work. On my way back to Atlanta I tried to find a golf course that was close to I-20 to play on my way home. I found Cedar Ridge and I'm happy I did. The course was Lush and in excellent condition. it was probably the greatest course I played so far this year. The course is open on the front and tight on the back. It's definitely a shot makers course but still enjoyable for all levels of play. There's a lot of elevation change on this course but it is definitely worth a stop and play.

Course has really come in. Greens are almost fully recovered from recent aeration. No noticeable imperfections, just quick - especially above the hole. You must stay below the hole to avoid three-putt bogies or worse on this course! The fairways were excellent. Par 3s are terrific, as are the short par 4s. Really like the club's new logo too!

Beautiful course, 3 slower players in front of us, greens had just been aerated, but an overall good round

Great course, always well maintained and extremely reasonable price wise. Some tough holes for the first time playing there but repeat golfers will appreciate the layout.

A great course with some amazing views. Challenging back nine. Extreme elevation changes with lots of hills. Surprisingly good course conditions for Februaury

A Troon facility, so you can expect the course to be in good shape. The Bent greens are rolling great, as they should be this time of year. Unlike most Birmingham-area courses with Bent greens, Cider Ridge's stay very playable year-round. There's seem to handle the heat better in the summer. Dramatic elevation changes beginning on hole 6 and remaining for the duration. You will get some excellent views of the Appalachian foothills, particularly in the autumn. Here is what I tell everyone that plays Cider Ridge for the first time... don't fall victim to your first impression of the course. The first hole is about as pedestrian as a gentle right-to-lefter gets. The par-5 fifth is a tight, straight-ahead par 5 that runs along a creek. In between, are three other relatively flat holes. You might think this is a pretty average course. And then you step onto the sixth tee and face an uphill par 4 that really sets the course into high gear. Do not be above the hole with your approach or you WILL three-putt. When you ascend to the seventh tee box, you will scratch your head and wonder is this REALLY a par 4, because it could be confused for a par 3. Strong strategy play as long, straight drivers can drive the green. Most players will settle for a mid-iron off tee, however well-placed pot bunkers can swallow balls. I've seen eagles and 8s made here, hence this is a good hole. The back nine will put all kinds of pressure on your game. No. 10 offers a blind tee shot. Tip: play to the 150-yard pole. Driver off tee will likely leave you in the vast barranca hidden from view. No. 14 is one of the hardest holes in the area. Again, play to the 150 pole and take time to notice the natural waterfalls to the right of the green. The par 3s are the centerpiece of this course. Practice facility is outstanding with wide, flat range.

Cider Ridge is a wonderful place to enjoy the game of golf. Each hole presents its own challenge and never plays the same from day to day.

Course is in great condition considering the drought we are in. Had a noon tee time and the pace of play was perfect. Played 18 in 3 hrs 20 mins. I saw only 2 groups all day and after letting the last one play through, practically had the course to myself after #4.

Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. I'm so proud to have this quality course located 2 miles from home. Can't wait to play there again.

Course was in great shape, considering the drought. Would like to play again in spring/early summer. Played to see some fall colors and it was nice. However, would have been spectacular if weather hadn't been so dry this fall.

Being first time playing, didn't do great, would be much easier second time.

Great course. Hidden little gem in Oxford Alabama.
