The Rock Golf Club & Resort

This place was the granddaddy of all goat tracks. It was so bad that it was worth my time to make an account and write this review. The staff is really friendly and the clubhouse is nice and renovated. Other than the views, thats about all they have going for them. Even at $32 it was about $10 over priced. There is no practice green and the driving range is a net...nice! If you want to practice your short game before you go, practice on your driveway because its probably softer than the greens. There were 2 temporary greens. The fairways on the front weren’t terrible but the back had no fairways. Hopefully youll be able to reach the green from the tee because if you hit it in the “fairway” you may not find your ball. There were several greens that recently undergone some very poor sod jobs. To top it all off, I ordered a burger and fries from the clubhoue and received no more than about 15 french fries, but they were good at least. Needless to say the course should be currently closed down while they attempt to make this track playable. So unless you just want to venture up toward that neck of the woods to see how bad it is for entertainment purposes, just stay away. You can thank me later.

I was excited to play this course, but was left a little bit underwhelmed. I was thinking there would be more elevation changes, but the course is relatively flat with the exception of 4 or 5 holes. 1, 8 (feature hole) ,9, 10, 11.

All in all, good conditons, and fun place to play if the pace was better. No one seemed to care about moving along.

Have played here a few times over the years. Always in pretty good shape. Love the par 3 with the waterfall. Fun layout. Recommended!

Good course, some interesting holes. Average shape for a municipal type course the facilities are aged can use some updating. Fairly inexpensive and fun to play.

Made a last minute change due to rain at our original course. Daniel in shop was very accommodating on the phone and on check in to get us out in short time due to time constraints. Raining for first 3 holes then no rain and threesome played back nine in 1:45. Greens were cut smooth, rolled fast and true. They were in very good shape. The stream that runs thru the course is very clear, and adds to the course. We played with a "no driver" restriction and made for a good play from the whites. We were impressed with the conditions.

Interesting golf and through in a beautiful waterfall. Enjoyed the round.

Went there on the recommendation of another Clemson parent. Upon arrival, we were able to tee off right away. The signs showing the holes are not very accurate but we were able to figure out the layout. My problem is that when we booked, there was no notification that the greens had recently been aerated making putting difficult. I would have not made the 40 minute drive if I had known.

Was greeted with freshly punched practice greens and a net for a driving range. Not a great first impression. Found out the entire course was aerated and was not happy. That all changed shortly after. This is a target golf course. 1st tee box 5iron nearly put me in the creek. Several irons or hybrids off the tee with a few bomb it holes. I used every club in the bag. The water fall off #8 tee box made up for the poor condition of the box. The par 5s were solid, The creeks running throughout the course made for some interesting decisions. I would like to see this course in good shape.

I have enjoyed playing this course in the past, but the current conditions are not good. Much of the grass in the general area is thin or dead. The golf carts are getting pretty beat up, and it looks like maintenance in general is having a hard time keeping up with the wear in the course. It’s an interesting layout, and if they put some more money into it, it could be a great golf course. As it is, it’s only fair. I wish they had space for a practice range, but they don’t. I doubt I’ll play there again unless they turn things around.
