Usually nothing bad to say….. BUT…

I usually have an awesome time out at cider ridge, usually no complaints but this time was different. Everything was good up to about hole 8 or 9 , ran into a 5 some group who was taking FOREVER, it was me and my girlfriend, I was the only one playing, of course they did not let us play thorough. What really went south is when we ran up on 10 people playing together, again failure to let us play through. and I barely finished in the dark. Just a bunch of red neck, toothless, inconsiderate etiquette having horribly rude golfers out at cider ridge come to find out. I doubt I will be back.

Long wait between shots, no cart girl. Not friendly at pro shop. Greens under repair.

Best Hot Deal

Found this course on a hit deal and it’s about 45 min from my house in West GA. Course was in awesome shape, greens rolled exceptionally well and the pace of play was fantastic even with a Tournament playing in front of my son and I. We will be back as this is one of the best hot deals I have played on GN.

Hidden Gem

I don’t normally take the time to do reviews but I feel like this course deserves it! Tucked in the Talladega National forest right off of I 20 resides a beautiful course unknown to many golfers I’ve shared. Friendly staff, fast fairways and greens are solid as well. Will come back again with golf buddies. 10/10 recommend

Signage/Yardage

One of my favorite courses. However, one BIG, but easy fix, would be better yardage markers on the course. Every hole needs a 150 stake (minimum) and a 100Yd plate would be nice as well. Phone reception is terrible so using on-line GPS is next to worthless.

With that said, everything else is 5 stars.

First class course

Beautiful mountain views abound on this impeccably presented layout. Bring your a game or just enjoy the course anyway. New greens are just going to get better this spring.

Excellent course

Only thing I can complain about is I had a 8am tee time which I believe was the 1st available but I had a foursome, all in individual carts ahead of me that never even thought it might be a good idea to let this single play through that is waiting on us at every tee box. I feel a Marshall would have remedied that. They weren’t slow but there was 4 of them with no one ahead. Other than that I had an awesome round and will try and get back to Anniston to play here again. The guy in the pro shop was awesome and so were the guys working the course.

Few bad spots around outside of greens

Love the layout. Beautiful holes with tons of elevation change. 1st cut of rough is brutal. Must keep it in fairway to save par.

Good Course

A group of us played Cider Ridge on Tuesday, September 13. The course has a lot of elevation change and requires careful club selection. The greens have recently been renovated with new grass and have not completely grown in. We enjoyed the course and recommend the course if you are in the Oxford area.

Could have been better

Only real issue was they were on temporary greens.
I told the attendant we were not made aware of the temporary status and he responded it was stated on the website.
One of my playing partners and myself checked the website and it was not mentioned. After the round we checked Facebook and was mentioned on May 8th but not since.
