We had our daughters wedding there this winter. The club was able to accomodate our group of 135, for both the ceremony and reception. The main ballroom is a great space for pictures, dining and dancing. We had a few bumps in the planning/execution but the team at Forest Hills rallied and it was an amazing day. I know weddings are expensive, but this place seemed like a good value. Highly reccomend.

Amazing staff, food, and the course is incredible! They offer family friendly events year round, and the 4th of July party is a the best day of the year! Highly recommend

I never would have thought I would become a member of any "country club" when I was growing up. I always had a impression that it would be... well not relaxing or get more attention to assumptions vs acceptance... and boy was I wrong. It turns out I was the assumptionist here and joining Forest Hills has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for my family. Where do I even start to begin on what we love about this place? Do we start with the golf course, the pool, the staff, the food or all of the events and activities? My kids now go there in the summer for the pool and the food at minimum 3x's a week. I'm afraid my daughter might just turn into a chicken finger as much as she eats those there! My son and his friends there seem to find great amusement in jumping off the high dive and being those typical kids seeing who can splash the life guards with their can opener attempts. The pool is massive and no matter how busy the pool is always feels like there is plenty of room to enjoy and relax. I could attempt to convince you that they have the best diving boards I've ever used, but I think you should really test them yourselves vs taking my praises for them. The golf course? Well as a mediocre player on my best days, and a passionate hacker that's played every course in a 10 mile radius of Rockford, cannot tell you a better course around. The greens are manicured meticulously and the fairways (when I hit them) are simply stunning. The course is challenging and yet inspiring start to many of my days now. There are leagues to play in, groups to join, and playdays to enjoy with members or guests. The pros there are some of the best instructors I have ever worked with or met, and make a man struggling for improvement find it with ease and generate confidence at the same time. From fireworks to music or laughs... if you're looking for a new way to create lasting memories than look no further than Forest Hills. If you think I'm "over selling it" or heck even "under selling it" than either way I implore you to come judge it for yourself, and then let me know if I steared you right or wrong... Come experience a community of like minded families and friends looking to laugh, play and enjoy more often in life.

This is a very lovely venue for special events. The Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps hosted their annual Hall of Fame Gala. The staff was excellent during the entire event.

Wedding and events MC and DJ of 10 years speaking here. We absolutely LOVE doing events at FHCC. Chris and her staff are some of the hardest working folks in the events industry. No detail is ever too small or overlooked. Even the vendors get treated like guests. If you have your event or wedding here you will definitely be pleased!
