Challenging Layout

Tight fairways and difficult thick rough that the ball sits down in.Sand traps not raked, but that’s on the players.No GPS on the cart a bit disappointing. Overall great golfing.

Best courses in the Tri-State area!

I love golfing the General and really all of them for the scenery, the challenging layout with the elevation changes. The course is always in amazing shape. I allayed tell my golfing friend to check out Eagle Ridge!

Galena Getaway

Super nice course. The bent grass fairways kicked my butt because I wasn't used to them.

Elevation CHANGES!

Interesting mountain course in Illinois. Yes, mountain course. The front 9 is very tight (especially off the tee) and extremely undulating with huge elevation changes. The back 9 is more open and fun to play. Overall, a great course and even better value.
