Rockway Vineyards Golf Course

Enjoyed their Golf, Dine and Wine package. The golf course was in perfect condition, the greens were the best I've played this year. Staff was really friendly with spectacular views of the escarpment and their own vineyards. Enjoyed a wine tasting in their own VQA Winery which features some of the best award winning wines from Niagara.

We love the course, the wine and the food.

The course had overbooked as the the day we played happened to be members men day. They over booked and sent out a number of groups on the back nine. We we came around to the 10 th tee we had 4 groups waiting to play our second nine. The starter said he had no choice as he had to get 216 members off. This is VERY disrespectville of my tee time and good money spent on a course that I usually recommend

Played on a beautiful Saturday with a scheduled 1pm tee time. Course was very wet due to all the rain in the last week, but was in good shape considering. Problem #1 was 8 minutes between tee times. Problem #2 was no marshal. We left the course after 9 holes despite paying for 18, because we were sitting in our carts watching the group ahead of us tee off on the tenth hole 3 hours after our scheduled start time. I just don't have time for a 6 hour round of golf, so I won't go back. Courses need to take more responsibility in keeping the pace of play more reasonable. I get they don't want to hound paying customers too much to keep moving, but now, my group will not go back there. There goes 4 ppl times $50 times 4 times a year, that's $800. Plus me telling my other buddies about our uber-slow experience. Rant over.

A pleasure to play excellent greens great fairways and the golf course location was nestled nicely in the escarpment and vineyards I felt very comfortable playing it will definitely be returning.

I played after a ton of rain, course is deceptively long , would play again but only after it dryies up.

Course is in better than good condition considering the past winter and wet spring. Greens are faster than they look and the lies in the fairways are pretty
tight. Bunkers overall are pretty good with less than a handful needing some work. Wind is always a factor here with the course being fairly wide open. Nice mix holes and length on 3's & 4's. Good 2nd shot golf course, no surprises with everything in front of you as you see it. Typically a good value but pace of play could be better, does see a lot of play.

Pre-season round:
Greens were in good to great condition, nicely firm considering the rainy April.
Fairways were well drained but soft.
Rough was soggy.
Tees were on the soft side but okay.
Staff was very friendly and processed the golfnow check-in quickly with no concerns.
Finished round in under 3.5 hours.

Great Golfnow rate and friendly staff, We arrived early and told to go ahead and enjoy our round. Our first time out this year and what a wonderful course to start the season.

I played this course in mid-April (it had just opened) and the conditions were surprisingly good. The greens were smooth and most of the fairways were dry. There were a couple of mushy spots where the balls would plug but considering the winter/spring that we've had it was great.

well maintained greens and the course overall, we played in wet conditions after sunday soaker and will go back soon

Let me start by saying that the night before we played, we had a lot of rain.
I booked the tee time the evening before we played and it was one of those "hot deals" on Golf Now. It was a very good deal. When we got to the course, we were told that the course was too wet to allow carts. I have Achilles Tendonitis and cannot walk a course anymore. If I try, I am barely able to walk for days afterwards. Anyway, I told them as much and asked if they could make an exception and they said "no, we have no cartpaths". I told the pro that I can't walk the course and he just kind of dismissed me. He could have offered a refund or rain check, but didn't. So we went out to play, knowing that I would pay for it later. They were correct in saying that it was very wet, but there were cartpaths throughout the course, not everywhere, but a good 80% of it. I could have stayed in the rough elsewhere. Anyway except for the wet conditions, the course was in pretty decent shape except for the greens. The greens were covered in worm castings, not just a few but literally covered!! Taking a leaf blower to the greens in the morning could have made them playable. Someone in a previous review mentioned the worm castings too. Anyway, we soldiered on and at the turn, I had enough, I just couldn't walk any further. We decided to pack it in.

I'm just really peeved that we weren't offered a refund or raincheck before we started. We got the feeling that they wanted us to suck it up or go home. They had their money and a handful of golfers, just enough to pay the staff for the day. All I know is that I won't be going back again. Just poor customer service. Stay away!

Great golf course around the vineyards and you can pick good pears especially this month of September!

Course was well maintained. We played as a twosome behind a threesome so pace was a little slow but easily tolerable.For a duffer like me it was challenging but the topography changes on some holes make for a very pleasant game. My wife and I agree we will be back.

Enjoyed all of this course.Greens & fairways well taken care of.

Decided to go to this course as it seemed to be one of the nicer courses in the area. Boy was I wrong. The fairways were a quagmire as they watered them even after heavy thunderstorms came through the day before. I've never been covered in mud spatter while playing a fairway wood off the fairway and then having to dig the ball out of the fairway because it got plugged. The greens looked like they were being eaten up by worms as there was worm feces all over, and on most greens.

Customer service is severely lacking when they close their snack bar at noon and only have poorly made sandwiches on the beer cart. When asked why the snack bar was closed the response was that she was only the cart girl. You couldn't even get a sandwich at the clubhouse.

Only one weakness which has to do with the ignorance of players than the management of the course — behaviour on the greens; ball marks and sunflower shells. There's no excuse for this very clear lack of consideration for the players who pay good money for a round, and the greenskeepers who try to keep up with the damage. Otherwise, the course is a treat to play, with or without the discount.

Your drive through wine country is rewarded with a just enough of a challenge to make golf interesting. The starter did a great job of keeping things moving on a very busy day at the first tee. The course was enjoyable and just challenging enough from the second set of tees back. The cart GPS was much appreciated. The round was overly slow as the course was busy and the marshals did what they could to keep things moving. Dinner in the clubhouse topped off the experience and the staff friendliness added to the ambiance.

well kept with fast greens. pace of play lagged sometimes cause there were alot of twos and singles playing behind some 4s.other than the odd wait at some tees was a great day.

the course itself has a nice layout the greens are very fast ,but we did not enjoy wating ten minutes or longer on each hole no ranger! sand traps were not maintained, not a good golf experience.

Found course fun. You can score low if you're long from tee.

Played 9 and it started to pour. Went in for lunch that was awesome. Pro shop offered a rain-check for the other 9, which surprised me cause it was booked through golfnow. Rain stopped during lunch and we went back out to finish back 9. I didn't like how it ends on a par 3 - apart from that, good value.
