Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa

I planned on playing the E/Ridge East g/c, but checked out golfnow for rates on the 18 hole courses. Much to my surprise, there was a special for $30 on the North g/c.

Probably the most scenic course I've ever played ... and I've played hundreds of g/c's all over the US!

Spectacular course from start to finish. Great elevation changes and superb conditions. Very challenging course with no two holes alike. Bring your camera as most holes are worth a photo stop.

Target golf for the thinking player, in every aspect, from tee to green. Not for the faint of heart. Keeps you thinking, from the #1 tee, to the 18th green. Fantastic.

A must play if your in the Galena area recommend best ball if your golfing with couples you'll enjoy the course more.

This course is challenging. If you like a high risk high reward course this is the course for you. It is a very tight course. If you have a hard time staying in the middle with your tee shot you better bring about a dozen balls.The greens run fast and true. This course has multiple holes that have elevation changes including their signature hole 14 which is 18 stories above the green. This course is incredibly beautiful with trees throughout the course at one point you can see three states Iowa Illinois and Wisconsin from the tee box. Only downfall of this course is as there is no driving range at the General we asked the attendant when we first got there there was a range and she said no we don't have one at this course. Great track!

I really enjoyed playing this course. The scenery and the views were extraordinary. Club selection was challenging, at times, given the changes in elevation...numerous uphill and downhill shots. I would expect to score much better the next time I play it. The heat index on the day I played The General was +100. A staff member (I think he was the marshal) made it bearable by providing all golfers on the course with an ice cold towel. In fact, he came by a couple of times to refresh our towel. How nice was that? The only slight negative on the day was the pro shop staff. I felt like we were "bothering" them, especially after our round.

It goes without saying that The General is one of the top 5 courses in the Illinois/Indiana/Wisconsin/Iowa area. Each hole is truly spectacular and the layout is second to none for a Midwest course. The only issue, and it was extremely obnoxious, was the amount of bugs. On a couple of greens, it was so bad that our group simply picked up our balls and drove to the next hole. Apparently the course has some kind of solution that you can apply to your clothing to keep them away, but we didn't receive this message until after the round!

Other than the bugs, our experience was A+ quality. The staff and course conditions were great, thank you!

One of the best I have ever played. Challenges every part of your game.

The course was beautiful and I look forward to playing the other two as well. Will be not only comparing course but staffs as well as staff on south course will be hard to beat as they were excellent from the very start. A,+++-

this course is more challenging than the general. my wife and i played and wow long challenging course will play again next month

Great championship golf getaway extreme slopes fantastic features with a demanding layout have to be very accurate well maintained very peaceful environment super friendly staff 3 more course to play in resort (North,General,East 9 hole )..driving range is located at north course to dial in

Challanging 9 hole course - in great shape - finished 9 holes in 1.25 hours! Lost a dozen balls -

Staff is very professional and very helpful I have played this course before and will play again. My wife does not play much so for the two of us we can play a challenging 9 holes at this course

Sand traps had too much sand. fluffy. difficult to hit out of

If you play the correct tees, this can be a very enjoyable experience. Take time to look back as well as forward. The greens are difficult to read because of the hilly terrain in the area. The back nine is a little more forgiving the the front nine. Look on golfnow.com for the deals.

I was just lucky to be able to play the North Course, at this time for the rate which we got. One of the BEST courses in the area.
I,m hoping to be able to play it again, and would recommend it to everyone who loves a playable, challenging, and interesting golf course. Five stars plus...

Had a great time at the General. Views from the tee are amazing. Bring a lot of balls though because there are many tight tee shots.

The General is one of 3, very nice 18 hole courses at Eagle Ridge. Considering the early season conditions and the recent heavy rains, the course was in very good condition and will do nothing but get better.

Using Golfnow made the round very affordable and I'm using it today on the South Course.

One criticism: if you like to hit balls before playing, allow enough
time to go to the North Course and pay for range balls.

very challenging course especially if you miss the fairway.elevation changes on every hole. Scenery is outstanding and of course was in great shape would never get bored playing this course.

In mid April the course was in great condition. 35 degrees when we tee off and the greens rolled well.
