The course's slope prating is 129, which is really tough for an advanced beginner like me. However, I didn't find there were too many hazards. There's not much water. Nice elevation changes. It was a very rainy and soggy day when we played, so I was impressed that they had a beverage cart. The pro shop staff were friendly and pleasant and the rangers kept a good eye on the course and players. Great course.
a Jack Nicklaus course that was most interesting,The fairways were like carpets and greens large.The front nine were very scenic and different.
Gnats were terrible!! Everyone playing the weekend we played complained about the bugs. No amount of bug spray could stop these bugs. Too bad, because the course was nice.
Greens and fairways in good shape, but tee boxes were horrible. Beautiful views of the mountains, trees changing color, wildlife and the lake. Very challenging course for an amateur like me. I really liked the course, layout wa a little crazy having to cross he road a few times. We did see the Marshall and beverage cart several times throughout the round.Would play it again.
I have played this course many times in better weather and it is a real challenge, I have never made par but enjoy the challenge.I believe i have found more golf balls then I have ever lost on this course.
This course is very challenging as the first 9 nine holes go up into the mountain where the second nine holes come down to the lake. During our stay, many of the fairways were not in the best of shape but overall the course was good. Very friendly and helpful staff at the course.
My husband and I booked this course before coming here using an online discounter. Weather forecast was iffy, so the friendly pro let us change our tee time to beat the rain. Because of heavy rain the night before, it was cart paths only, which always makes it a little more difficult to play. The fairways were suffering badly from some kind of fungus or turf disease, with many bare spots.The starter put us on #10 to start; we had a hard time finding the 10th tee from the range, and also had problems finding #1 from the 18th green. More signs are definitely needed!Fairways were generally narrow, and some greens quite small. All greens were in very good shape, except for many unrepaired ballmarks. All holes are within sight or earshot of the nearby interstate, but that's not distracting.The back 9 is quite open and flat; the front 9 hilly, with some beautiful views. There are many pretty natural areas alongside the fairways.
This resort has it all. Its everything you would like to have in a resort. It has outside activities like a beautiful lake you can take the kids to. The place have nice people their to help you if you need anything. I took the elevator down stairs and went into the lounge were i met one of the managers. He took the time and took me around to different places. Rovky Gap is brand new. I am glad to be a new customer to. I advise everyone to go to Rocky Gap. Its not expensive, and you can WIN.
There was nothing to dislike about the course. The views were spectacular, the course was well maintained, the flow of play was good, and even an average player can enjoy the challenge of this course.
Affordable course with 5 sets of tees. Excellent maintenance and fabulous views at many holes, Play the recommended tees for an enjoyable experience.
