Hidden Lake Golf Club

Escape to some secluded scenery for an enjoyable round worth repeating with today's feature: $16 for 18 Holes with Cart at Hidden Lake Golf Club in Sheffield near the Quad Cities ($32 Value. Good Any Day, Any Time until August 15, 2013.)

Hidden Lake Golf Club was originally opened in 1921 as a private, nine-hole club. In the many years since, the initial design was overhauled by course architect Steve Halberg, who created an 18-hole experience that takes full advantage of its unique terrain. Constructed on a deeply green plot of forested land, this secluded design stretches across vast rolling terrain skirted by dense woods, creating the quiet ambiance of a true “hidden” gem.

Surrounded by both beautiful lakes, including a long one that runs the entire length of two fairways, Hidden Lake is a modest par-72 that challenges when it should and still allows plenty of scoring chances. Don't underestimate the tricky double-dogleg fairways or the smallish sloped greens!

Playing to 5,735 yards, Hidden Lake Golf Club favors both beginners and professionals with an accommodating format that is both exciting and complex. Featuring two sets of tees for different skill levels and an ambitious staff that’s dedicated to keeping the character in this course, Hidden Lake is an ideal location to spend your next summer afternoon.

So for those that seek a relaxing round at a venue all their own, look no further than Hidden Lake Golf Club — this summer’s best-kept secret!
