Ingersoll Golf Course

This was what I considered my "home course" growing up in Rockford. The Rockford Park District always tried to encourage youngsters to get into golf. Ingersoll is always a delight to play on our many return visits from the UK over the years. The staff and starters are always really welcoming. With fairways being tree lined, it is important to hit the ball straight. That is the main challenge of the course. The back nine is shorter, but also has its challenges, in addition to the trees, with out-of-bounds to the left of 10, 11 and 12 and 14, 16, 17 and 18. The presentation and maintenance of the course by the greens staff is always excellent. Some natural areas have been left for wildflowers and nature. The Fall is a delightful time of year to play with wonderful maples and other colourful leaves. We planted a memorial maple for my dad near the clubhouse. Looking out over the course is always great at all times of year.

Great Deal for a fun and challenging course!

Roughs definitely need a trimming, long par 4's are just too challenging for the mid handicapper. Greens were great. Course just needs a good haircut! Staff was fantastic, so friendly and helpful. Fairways have been narrowed since the last time I played here with the cuts of grass.

If you don't mind walking then ingersoll is a good value for the money. The layout is decent for walking as well. The staff could use a few lessons in customer service and the greens need some tending to. It's also a nice course for new golfers.

Nice layout for park district course that has a handful of doglegs. I like that they keep the fairways cut real low since its not bent grass fairways. Long par 3's and lots of tall mature trees that make it challenging. Greens are firm so you want run your ball up on the green. Best course in town to walk since tee boxes are close.

$10 for 18 holes awesome course.

Rockford park district does a good job of maintaining their courses. This is no exception. Easy to walk 18 holes as the greens are right next to the tees for the next hole. Typical older (1920's) course. $18 for 18 holes is a bargain.

The front has a lot of mature trees and you have to be straight or your shipping/punching your second shot.

It was fall golf. Down leaves at times made it hard to find golf balls. The course was running lawn mowers to aleviate the problem. Otherwise the course was in very good late fall condition.

Mature very beautiful course which I enjoyed much.

Course was in excellent condition and the pace of play was perfect, wish I had played better

I love this course...played a couple times this summer already...probably hit their again a couple more before the season ends...
