Rockway Vineyards Golf Course offers an 18-hole championship round with the Niagara Escarpment and the Rockway Conservation Area serving as the backdrop. The course sprawls across the vineyards of the Rockway Vineyards Estate Winery. The rolling landscape provides tricky elevation changes and there are numerous ponds and bunkers throughout the golf course. The layout features large, sculpted greens and fairways that are flanked by more than 60 sand bunkers. The front nine features a challenging set of par 4s and fast, undulating greens. Vineyards's back nine begins gently with short approach shots and birdie opportunities but becomes more challenging once you hit the 13th hole, a par-4 dogleg left.

Tougher than expected

Excellent course. First time and was not disappointed. Front 9 was more difficult than back 9. Definitely play again due to weak score and some unique holes.

Course that lets you make some mistakes

The course overall is fairly forgiving to beginner and novice golfers being fairly open, but it's no walk in the park as there are some pretty tough holes where strategizing is necessary. Good vibe from the marshalls to the rest of the people working there. It's one of my favourite courses to play for the reasons above.

SLOW SLOW SLOW....

It’s a SHAME, this is such a nice course but the STAFF only care about the members and NOT public players

BIG sign On the pro shop door “must wear mask” but pro shop attendant Jordan, not wearing a mask nor was the other two staff in there.. and any member going in didn’t either... the starter had the nerve to tell us there are drones flying the course to see if you keep the plastic partition in the cart.. LMAO wow ya sure

The pass of play was HORRIBLE... all due to a MEMBER group of ladies in carts that were more then two holes behind and took 10 shots each on a par four

The Marshal was nowhere to be found... then on the 8th hole comes by after getting on multiple phone calls from players and says the ladies are only a hole and half behind and what can he do...

wow free golf to be a Marshal and do nothing

Good job

I’ve played this course many times and never had this prob... seems to be management problem with this course! Seeing how they can’t even oblige to their own rules of wearing masks inside

Good value for the money

I was pleasantly surprised on how good the traps are. You can pay twice the price and not get as good. Well watered and good shape.

Fast greens

Beautiful day, course is in good shape. Greens seemed faster than I remembered. If you are not a single digit handicap then do everyone a favor and play white tees not blue tees.

This Golf Course Won't Disappoint You Playing it

I always enjoy planing this course, and would suggest to get a cart as the front 9 has some good hills. The conditions were excellent.
