About
Black Rock Golf Course may be one of western Maryland's newest courses but it's located near some of the country's most historic sites. Antietam Battlefield and Harper's Ferry are just a few minutes away from this scenic course. The opening holes of the layout are tucked into the Shenandoah Valley while the back nine climbs uphill, offering views that stretch across the Appalachian Mountains. The golf course has plenty of holes that will please long hitters, but mature trees and thick rough frame most of the holes, demanding accuracy. Traps protect the front of most of the greens and you'll come across dramatic undulations on some. The par-4 13th is arguably Black Rock's toughest hole. This sharp dogleg right has a massive tree to the right as well as a pond right in front of the green.

A Great Course -- Tough But Fair
Rarely do you shoot a really high score on a course new to you and want to go back and give it another try. Black Rock is one of those courses!
It has everything: length, great bunkers with good sand, water, scenery, undulating greens, tree-lined fairways, blind shots, and rough just high enough to challenge you.
It also has a slow pace of play, even though the course was not particularly crowded.
Everything considered, it's a great value at the Golf Now bargain rate.
Nice Course
This was the first time playing the course. I enjoyed it very much. The course was in great shape, and lots of acreage. It's a beautiful and challenging course. I will definitely be back.
Worth the trip
Black Rock is worth the 40 minute drive to Hagerstow. I make it an, at least once a trip to play. Fun course, everything is right in front of you. Shot makers golf course, but you don't have to be long. Will be back next year for sure.
Must Play
This course is a must play if you are in or coming thu Hagerstown.,Great price and great staff.AAA+++
Very nice course; good value through GolfNow
We played $35 for a round at BlackRock Golf course in Hagerstown, MD. This was a good value. I saw some $50-60 prices at different times, but would consider them high for the course. I think a $30-40 price for a round on BlackRock to be a value.
Fairway
It's hard to tell if your in the fairway or rough. The fairway needs to be cut shorter as well as some of the tee boxes! Great course!
AWESOME COARSE
From Virginia Beach, the grass at this course alone puts ours to shame. Super friendly at the club house. Will play again ext time I'm in the area.
Great day
Course was well groomed, greens were a nice pace and true, staff and food were as wonderful as ever!
Course in good shape even after 6" snow fall 4 days earlier, cart path only, very wet but no issues. Pace of play was great even tho there were many golfers on course. Staff is great to work with. get you in and out quickly. Play here a lot, great course.
Good layout
Enjoyed the round. Even though they are working the grounds, it's in good shape. Thank you.
Best Municipal Course I've Played
Title says it all, really. It's not exactly inspired golf course design, but it's a fun course that is beginner-friendly while still holding some interest to the better, more serious golfer. It's not a hard course, but that's fine. Golf can be easy as long as it's still interesting. As for conditions, considering it was the middle of February, the course was in good shape. I've played the course during the summer, and conditions are excellent then as well. And it's decent value as well. I wouldn't travel much more than half an hour to play here, but if you live in the area, and you haven't played here, I would recommend it.
Feb 8th, Course in Decent Shape WOW!
How lucky to be playing a round in Early February, fairways and greens are FIRM (not mushy) . Course is doing some work on the OLDER trees on the course, this should make play in 2017 a little different (perhaps easier).
Couldn't ask for more
The course is a great layout and for being this time of year was in excellent condition. I've never met a friendlier staff anywhere. Can't wait for another nice day to make the two hour trip again!
Update: played the course several times since my initial trip from the "mountains" of PA. Love the course and will make a habit of playing here.
