Course is in great shape, except for the greens.

20+ consecutive days of 90 plus degree weather has just murdered the bent grass greens.

Not really the management's fault, but we are in North Carolina.

The course is in excellent condition considering the weather we've had this summer. Some areas of fairway are burnt out but the areas are few and small. The staff is friendly and the price was great (33 for 18 and cart). Definitively will play again. The challenge of Rome Country Club is the greens are small and some are guarded by water (creeks or ponds). Your chipping game will definitely get a workout. The greens are fairly firm, flat and they roll true.

Greens are fast, with a lot of unrepaired/poorly repaired ball marks on some holes.

The scorecard/course should give more details about the several blind tee shots you'll encounter.

The rough is REALLY long and thick, you may lose a ball in there and it is certainly not easy to hit out of.
