More recent homes back up to the Sandy Hollow Golf Course
Neighborhood housing mainly consists of ranch-style homes, tri-levels, and duplexes, most of which were built in the 1960s and ‘70s. Prices range from $100,000 to $200,000, but some sell for below $100,000 because they require renovation. There are also duplexes and some single-family homes on quarter-acre lots with three to four bedrooms and up to 2,000 square feet of living space. Along Carol Place, Holiday Drive and Bannister Drive are newer homes with contemporary traditional, quad-level and contemporary ranch styles from the 1990s to the 2010s. Some of these back up to the Sandy Hollow Golf Course and sell for between $140,000 to $240,000.

Sandy Hollow Golf Course is approaching 100 years old
Sandy Hollow Golf Course opened to the public in 1929, making it the third-oldest course in Rockford. It is owned and maintained by the Rockford Park District. The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary has recognized the course's environmental efforts. “We’ve been Audubon certified for over 25 years,” says Ann Bloomfield, a golf professional at the course. “We have five beehives on the course and make our own honey that we sell in the clubhouse.” Extensive gardens and flowers surround the course’s clubhouse. “We’ve built a good community with our neighbors around the course. The people who own homes that back up to it do a good job keeping up their property lines.” Eckberg-Pine Manor Park is in the northeast part of the neighborhood and is mainly an open green space with a playground, picnic tables and an automatic spray pad that can be activated with the press of a button.
