The General is a picturesque course with great elevation changes. #14 signature holes offers views seeing Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin. Fairways are guarded with native fescues, heavily wooded forests and limestone rock outcroppings. This course offers high risk/reward shots laying the course. Forced carries are many and measure up to 215 yards, however several tee boxes make the course very playable for all skill levels.
The General is currently ranked 52nd by Golf Magazine for "Best Places You Can Play", #1 for Illinois for Zagat survey, and #1 by Golf Week Magazine for Best Places You Can Play in Illinois. This course is part of the Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa facility which features three 18-hole championship courses and one beautiful and challenging 9 hole course on property.
