Great Day
Excellent playing conditions. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Beautiful scenery.
Gem in the mountains!
Gotta play this course if you're not too far from it. Some really picturesque and challenging holes. Staff was extremely friendly and grateful to have us playing their course, wanted us back, invited us to come back often. Food in the SportsBar after the 18 was also well above average.
Nice course
First time playing lost few balls and was not sure of the landscape of some of the fairways. Good experience.
Beautiful course, tough small greens
Course in great shape. Par 3s really tough holes. Relatively small greens either long and narrow or wide with no depth. Greens had been aerated a couple weeks ago and were rough rolling but with a distinct grain easy to read. Pin placements were tough with very small risk/reward landing areas. Tee boxes level and in nice shape. Beautiful fairways, mix of wide and narrow landing areas. Interesting layout requiring good course management. Can't just pull out the driver on every par 4 and 5. Best hot dog & roll I ever had at a golf course. Excellent Staff!
EXPENSIVE
How did we enjoy our round....well booking through GolfNow was expensive. $196.00 for the 4 of us.....counting green fees, cart and booking expenses that you charge. The two groups in front of us played for a total of $120.00.....they played for $30.00 each both foursomes, just ahead of our Tee Time.
And here we thought Golf Now was a better way to go...!!!!!!!
Tale of two nines
Radical difference between the front and the back, but both in excellent condition. The front is much more scenic, but the back has some really nice holes also.
The one thing I will say about RG, is be prepared for slower play, especially on the front. This is a resort, and thusly, you have a lot of husband wife golf going on, and this course has plenty of teeth for the novice golfer. If you prepare yourself beforehand, no worries.
Great course experience but not great service
Have played here before and experience on course was same-- good course, challenging, great conditions. But, service before casino was better--no bag boys at curb, no valet car service as posted, automated doors not automated, information about pro purchases varied by staff .
Will come back but for course not service. When there was service, kids stood around obviously waiting for tips.
But, no one cares about golf when casino brings in $$$$.
Fun challenge
Neat layout, reasonably well conditioned. Definitely worth the 45 I paid. A better scorecard with hole layouts would help for some of the blind tee shots, but overall a fun course to play, especially the front 9.
Awesome course!
If you are anywhere near this place you have to play. Staff was amazing, due to a VERY early arrival, (2 hours) I was worried about getting off. They said 'no problem' and I was on the first the in 30 minutes. Try that at your local muni.
It was cart path only and it should have been. I still think I lost one that plugged in the middle on the fairway. (that's my story and I am sticking too it!)
Good golfers should try the tips (only 7063) and some great views!
Love This Course
While the resort seems to be going through some growing pains with confusing parking and moving the golf shop around, the course is a gem. It is a challenge for all levles, but it is fair. The setting and scenery couldn't be better. Great vistas and wildlife make the viewing interesting, but you need to keep your focus. One bad shot on many holes can lead to a big number. I'll definitely come back.
Scenic course; speed up the greens
This is a very beautiful resort course. There are some challenging shots from the tips. The pace of play was excellent and the weather couldn't have been better. My only complaint would be the extremely slow greens.
Great design
Par 3s let you use everything from a gap wedge to a 6-iron. Landing areas were generous but you still had to use positioning to set up for a good shot into the pins. Elevation changes made club selection important. Outstanding course.
Coming back
Played Rocky Gap prior to casino days and poorly maintained greens led to staying away. Now even with aerated greens the course is GREAT.
I'll return often.
Recommend this course
Made the hour drive to play here because of golfnow deal, and it was well worth it. Greens were in great shape for April and the course is well kept. Only downside was that construction is being done on the resort, which is loud and kicks up dust near several holes. Would absolutely golf here again for same deal.
nice course
I played on Veterans day, so, the weather wasn't that great. It's a very nice course, however, I don't believe the greens had been mowed in a couple of days, and the roughs were loaded with leaves. I would very much like to play this course when the weather is a little warmer, and the greens are a little faster.
Tough and beautiful.
Cartpath only when we played. A workout. Lot of steep climbs. Fairways had some wet spots and no roll which added to difficulty. Greens very nice. Would love to play in dryer conditions.
Enjoyed the course
Front and back are totally different. You will lose some balls but a very pretty challenging course
Great layout
Great scenery and in good shape . I would play it again for sure .
typical JACK course.
Nothing too spectacular but a good experience. We'll play it again.
Nice course but don't pay retail
Scenic course in the mountains, well maintained, but not really my idea of an $80/round course, in other words, it is nice, but not on par with other $80 courses. With the Golfnow discount, it was a great value. I'm a 7 handicap and found the course challenging and entertaining, no major complaints on upkeep, greens are hard underfoot, so ball doesn't check well with short irons, yet they putt slow due to grass length.
