The Rookery South

Good first experience. Not much course info provided so bring a range finder. Some holes are very short but a good mixture overall. You can score well on this course if you are having a good day.

not bad for the money course in good condition fast greens nice layout.

I was in Lewes for a week, during which I played The Rookery three times. I played several other courses as well, which led me to conclude that The Rookery is the best value option for this area. Other courses are significantly more expensive without offering much more in terms of challenge level or course quality. The Rookery isn't a world-class track but it's a good, fair layout that will test your game without pushing your limits. It's mostly a flat track but wind, rough, and hazards offer sufficient challenges. Conditions were good when I visited in early September, and pace of play was reasonable. I enjoyed all three rounds I played there and would recommend this course to friends without hesitation.

You wouldn't pay $75 to play this course at home, but you're at the shore where everything is more expensive. The course has a few argues about it: a short par four that requires a seven iron off the tee, three par fives and three par threes on the back nine, one part for dogs like it doesn't quite work because trees block half the green. But by and large, this is a well laid out well-maintained course thatdoesn't cost an arm and a leg to play.

Packed house but pace of play great. Got hooked up with the best group of guys & had a great round.

The course had some interesting holes. The greens were in very good condition. Tee boxes ok. Fairways ok to good. I would definitely go back and play again.

Really a good time. Course was in very good condition even after 3” of rain the night before. Staff was great and very helpful. Round was a little slow but that will happen with a mix of walkers and riders. Still got 18 i holes in four hours and 15 min.

We showed up an hour early to lunch in the restaurant and the staff walked past us multiple times as if we were not there. Finally had to ask for service. The food was good ample portions but when finished again had to stand up and wave to get our bill. The gentleman in the pro shop was less than friendly and borderline rude. Once we began play it was a wait at every hole. Nice course and may play again in off season to see if better. Definitely will hit a drive thru before eating at the restaurant again.

Since it was my 1st time I wished there would be alittle more friendliness at the check in counter. The starter was really nice….the guy behind the counter said carts over there, card in it…that was it

I'm in the area on vacation.. I liked the course. I play the senior tees and it was not overly long and very playable. A couple of tricked up holes. I think it's #4. Only about 130 yards to a lake or over 200 to carry the lake. Short iron off the tee. Par 3's were good. 5 of them from 95 yards to 180. Some crossover with other players hitting into our fairway and a couple of shots from our group going into other fairways. Played with 3 local guys. Very friendly. Between 9's they have a tent set up for refreshments so you don't have to go into the clubhouse to get something to eat or drink. Saw cart girl 3 or 4 times. Overall, enjoyed the day. Will probably play it once more before I head home.
