The Rock

We’ve played this course a handful of times before. The conditions would have been better had it not been for the tornado warnings and rain storm the day before our round. However, this is a nice course with some excellent views. We’ll be back again.

Love this place

Our daughter moved to Greenville over a year ago and when we come see her we try to play the Rock. This time was like the previous experience we loved it. Greens rolled great and obviously everything was dormant but still in very good condition. Customer service from check in to the starter was exceptional. The views are beautiful especially coming from Florida. We’ll be back for sure.

Great course! Even better views!

This golf course is perfectly located. There is great scenery to look at while you play and the conditions of the course are hard to beat. The fairways roll well but are plush enough to get a good divot, the perfect combination. The greens are fast and roll true, they are a personal favorite of mine in comparison to other golf courses in the upstate. The Rock at Jocassee is also home to Gauley Falls, which you can see perfectly from the 8th tee box. This very underrated golf course will not disappoint and has climbed to the top for the best “bang for your buck” golf course in the upstate of South Carolina.
