Cider Ridge Golf Club

Fantastic experience great course for any price, but a real bargain for under $40. Staff was very friendly and sandwiches in restaurant were very good.

My Dad, Brother, and I love this course. It is tucked away off the beaten path but a great deal for the money. We have played this course several times and do not mind driving from Georgia to do so. The back side is definitely tougher than the front but the course is playable for many skill levels. I highly recommend this course to anyone who enjoys great golf, amazing course layout, and beautiful natural scenery.

The only drawback to this round was that it was not posted on the course website or the golf now reservation list that the greens had recently undergone aerification.

Course is well maintained and would be wonderful to play when the greens are back to normal.

The night before play rained a 1/4 of an inch......needed a boat on the front nine course very poor drainage. Course elevations on back nine are extreme don't bring somebody that has a problem with walking steep embankments. The course itself is challenging and except for the drainage problem enjoyed the outing.

This course was awesome. The views were excellent and the course was immaculate. Can't wait to come back and play when the fall colors are at their peak.

Really scenic course. Excellent facilities. Highly recommend

Course was in fantastic shape. Fertilizer had been put on fairways and rough but did not interfere with the play. The greens were a little sandy in places from where they had top-dressed them probably a week or so ago but did not affect anything other than having to clean you ball after the first put. This small inconvenience was offset by the lightening fast speed of the greens and how true they putted. Get it on line with the correct speed and it was in the hole.

Several people prior to me had rated the F&B low. While we didn't eat there we did get drinks at the turn and were served quickly and with a pretty smile.

I highly recommend this course. It is a challenge and a joy to play. I will be back as soon as I can.

One of the great features on this course is their signature par 3 hole. Very scenic & challenging to pick the right club. Course fairways are well maintained all year around. A lot of fun to play. Each hole is uniquely different

Nice course for the money. Nice views and the greens are well maintained.

Never heard of this course and lived in Birmingham for 20 years! Found it via golf now and I'm so happy I did! Great condition and a great price! Nice facilities and staff is excellent! Course if challenging and a few hints are needed before teeing off( which the pro gave us) . Overall great time and will definitely be coming back,

In April my family and friends chose Cider Ridge to host our annual family two day golf outing. We are golfers of all skill ranges: 9 handicap - what is a handicap?
The staff was very helpful in assisting with the setup - multiple tee times over multiple days, a good deal, checking back before our outing to ensure everything was planned well.
It rained us out for the first tee time but we were able to get out after a 1.5 hr delay. The course shed water well. We played the first round and came back to the clubhouse where we ate lunch. The food was fantastic. We were able to get in 2 1/2 rounds even with a weather delay. While we were delayed the staff and management continued to ask if there was anything we needed.
The next day was even better.

The greens roll true and are a challenge. Many of the holes are beautiful, Alabama mountain views. The course is wide open enough to give everyone a chance to play, but good locations of traps, water hazards, and hills make the course a challenge. Not as challenging as a Bay Hill or Oakmont but as an 11 handicapper it took a round or two and some course knowledge to shoot below 85. Don't bite off more than the course gives you. There are at least two holes where course knowledge is required. Birdie holes exist but you must land it close on some holes or the challenging greens will make it very tough.

I recommend this facility for a family outing of golfers at all skill levels and hope you enjoy it as much as I and my family did.

We enjoyed playing this course and would never have found it had we not used GolfNow. Beautiful and somewhat challenging! I appreciated the advantage given to Ladies tee boxes.. We are from Texas and will definitely play this course again when we pass through this area!

Exceptional value, this would be a $60-$70 greens fee if this course was in my home city !!!!

We drove the hour from Birmingham to play here. The course is in great shape and is an interesting and fair test. The greens rolled great but were a touch slow. An aspect of play here that could be improved is having a map of holes available. Without having played there a few times, tough to know where to hit it on some holes.

Overall the course was in pretty good shape, a lot of water on several holes I guess from recent rains. The only thing that really stood out was I wish there were either hole descriptions or overhead pictures of the holes on the scorecard or cart or somewhere. There were several holes with tricky layouts or places where the fairway just ended without any notice that you couldn't see from the tee box. You think you hit a good shot only to find out you are in a hazard area. Otherwise nice course.

This is a hidden gem. Championship conditions. Tuff

Highly recommend playing. I drive over an hour one way to play.

In pretty good shape considering it rained a foot the day before. Lots of tricky holes on the back. Great deal to play again same day for a cart fee ($17).

Cider ridge was in great condition. Challenging and fun. Would recommend to anyone!

Excellent course. Very pretty. Very well maintained. Super friendly staff. Can't wait to play it again.
