First Time Playing

Challenging layout the first time

We played in rain and cold weather which made the day a real challenge. The course was in good shape, and the greens were faster than expected considering the rain. For a first timer there are some real challenges…greens you can’t see from the tee box, fairways with side slopes not visible from the tees, fairways that really require a layup that you can’t see from the tees. I will love playing this course again to better handle the challenges, and I will wait for warmer weather to do that! The staff was terrific helping get me oriented to playing the course.

Great place

We had an excellent experience here. It’s a very innovative layout, which calls for shot, making, and strategic choices, not just blasting the ball. The course is in absolutely immaculate condition and everyone who worked it was very friendly and helpful. Great value for the money and we will definitely return.

Slow play

Very nice course to be fair. We were golfing behind a group of seniors that were playing very slow and a single walker. The group behind us hit on us multiple times. At the turn one of the staff yelled at us to pick up the pace without knowing the single walker just moved from the middle of the fairway. They were rushing everybody because the course had an outing that day as well. For the price I think they should plan a bit better if they allow for golfers to book times in the morning knowing they have an outing later in the day.
I always heard good thing about Rock Manor but my 1st experience was less that expected.

Great Course

I recall when Rock Manor was 8 holes in front, 10 holes in back and very poorly laid out because I-95 cut through it. Well, it is now a coherent layout. It is in fine condition with normal wear and tear after a busy summer. But it is a great place to play and the staff is just as nice as they can be.

Pricey for conditions

This is a great course to play, greens are always fast in late summer. Greens were aerated the day before and plugged with sand. Still had to pay for price, half tee boxes were in rough shape.
This course has extremely raised their prices since Covid and now it’s becoming not worth the price anymore.

My outing

A nice afternoon thwarted by lack of some SOP’s.
No attendant to assign cart
Helped myself and promptly questioned why when he showed up.
Explained my reasoning to which he he simply said “oh ok”
When I asked what the pin position was for the day he pointed towards #1 and said “I’ve never heard of that before..” Seriously? Even after I explained it same bewildered look.
Meanwhile my cart died on hole 12. Called 5x no answer. Had to walk rest with my bag, backpack, extra stuff. Backed up the group behind.
Kindly asked for a call back from the manager on duty-never happened. Followed up next day 8-18 with a live person who took my name and number but you guessed it… never happened. Initially I was ok with the cart breaking down and no answer at the clubhouse but the lack of follow thru after 2x follow up calls has changed that to now asking for a full refund to and a complimentary round for 2.
Strike-1 the group behind me had 4 players with 3 carts, music blaring and showed zero golf etiquete. Driving all over the place, driving on a few tee boxes, yelling and screaming like they were only one’s playing.
Strike-2 not one of them had the respect to offer up their extra cart to keep pace of play so I just walked a bit slower. Now I know that’s not ur issue but what is ur issue is you have 4 players and 3 carts
Hire competent people who care and know what “pin position” means.
All my contact info is on my business card that I left last night and on the post it note the person that I spoke to wrote on. It’s a public course I get it but no excuse for not full filling the basic needs of a golfer.
Work on the Customer Experience from start to finish before it’s too late.

No Mention of Hole 4 Not Having a Putting Green

Course is usually in good condition. A few kids rode their dirt bikes and four wheelers on hole 4’s green and destroyed it. There is now a flag and cup in the middle of the fairway. My group found out after paying full price and seeing it for ourselves. There was no mention of there being no actual green.

The greens also have many ball marks that are not fixed. With that being said, the greens are fast and tricky. Overall the course is good but not for the normal price of $90+.

Book a group of 4

The course is great, the staff are SUPER friendly. Checkin was a breeze.
Got paired with a 2 guys, one of which was wearing sandals and no glove.
Could have used the cart girl more but the course was in nice shape but the pin placements were tough on fast greens. Someone must have been mad that morning.
I’ll play again
