First Time Playing

Wish I had played better.

This course is amazing, fun, challenging and all about your tee shot. An accurate tee shot is how you'll avoid all the penalty strokes I incurred during my round. The greens aren't very fast buy they roll nicely. Worth the drive.

Nice course

The course was in excellent shape and the staff was very friendly. I am usually very critical of the Rockford Park District, however they seem to put all their time, money and energy into this facility. There are nicer courses in the area for less money but again, when a golf course runs like it should, they deserve credit, a pat on the back and a recommendation. Aldeen is a good place play.

What happened!?

The Winnebago County Park District golf courses used to be an excellent place to play and have a positive golf experience. Over the past several years the course conditions and attitudes have declined. On a Sunday golf lessons are allowed to slow play to a screeching halt. On a Sunday groups are allowed to play as 5. On a Sunday groups are allowed to play scrambles which also bring the pace of play to a dismal crawl. Etiquette dictates that no one cares if you're a terrible golfer, however it does mention keeping pace with the group ahead of you. No rangers work on the weekends or if they do they don't care. Probably won't go back until I hear things are different. What a shame, Atwood used to be a great place.

6 Stars!

With the excellent condition of the course and the friendliness of the staff this course deserves 6 stars. The only thing I wish were different is that they be located closer to home. The course is challenging and extremely fun to play. I recommend everyone play here whenever possible.

Typical Rockford Park District

Keeping the idea that Rockford used to be a GREAT place to play golf the Rockford Park District continues to upset everyone who try to support them. No rangers to keep up the pace of play. 2 somes are allowed to share the same clubs. 5 somes are allowed on any day of the week. At the turn when you try and address these issues, the staff suggests that you call the park district main office. Awesome! I understand that this is not there doing, but you won't find this behavior at allowed at any other golf course in the surrounding area. I literally dread playing Rockford public courses anymore because of how paying customers are treated and with no regard to educate.
