Bang for the buck!

We really enjoyed playing here. Fun layout with plenty of room to recover from miss hits. Greens

were big and the putts rolled fast. For the money, excellent value.

Great day on the best course around

Used the practice green, chipping green and range prior to my round. All were in great condition. Only improvement I would like is if there were more "practice balls" included. The pace of play was really good for how busy the course was. The cold water bottles every few holes were appreciated. The fairways, tee boxes and greens were all in great condition. Greens were firm and fast. All the staff were friendly at the pro shop, and had a fun conversation with one of the course maintenance employees while on the practice range who gave me advice on how to play the greens that day. Will definitely be back to play again. I play many courses in the region and this is the best course to play for the price around.

Good deal

Wide, forgiving fairways and decent sized greens. The course is in very good condition, from tee through green. We drive 1.5 hours to play this course and have never been disappointed in the condition.

Second time playing and lovin the course

Played Rocky Bayou for the second time and I really am impressed! The course is beautiful with a variety of different challenges, uphill shots, downhill shots to elevated greens, over water shots and more. Love the course and looking forward to my next round a Rocky Bayou.

Beautiful bang for your buck course

For the money, this course is awesome. Layout had easy and hard holes. Conditions were good, though the greens were a bit bumpy. 10-13 are the standout holes. Would recommend if you are looking for a good priced golf round.

Very impressed.

My first time playing Rocky Bayou and I will definitely be back. The course was is great shape and tge greens rolled really well. The rain started when I was on hole 13-14 and it poured. The course drains really well and we should have waited for the rain to stop or at least slow down some. I’m looking forward to going back and playing a round when it’s not raining.
