About

Rocky River Golf Club was carefully carved from lush, rolling hills and natural wetlands with the intent of preserving the beautiful terrain as much as possible. The course flows across the dramatic natural contours of the land, providing holes with plenty of elevation changes. Running alongside the rolling fairways are winding ribbons of native wetland grasses that weave through rocky outcroppings. Golfers shouldn't be surprised if they come across some of the wildlife that inhabits the course, which includes cranes, deer, and beavers. In addition to the stunning scenery, the golf course offers a challenging round. The large, contoured greens demand accurate iron play. Errant shots will find their way to the wetland areas or the patches of seeded fescue. In addition to the golf course, Rocky River offers a driving range with four target greens as well as a putting and chipping green.

I love this course. The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. Pin placement was tough, too many three putts, must be able to handle these tough greens. . pace of play was great and to top if off we had perfect weather for golf. We had a Very , very enjoyable round

Great course, bad communication

Website should have stated cart path only due to fertilization.

Otherwise great greens and course.

Cart path only

You really need to put on your website when it’s cart path only because you fertilized the course .

Btw I never heard about cart path only because you fertilized !

I’m just a traveler who tried to enjoy your course. Very disappointed for sure .

Great Course

LOVE this course. I've been playing for a little over a year and enjoy courses that are challenging but not ridiculous. Rocky River is in excellent shape, from tee boxes to greens. Friendly staff, nice range and putting area near the first tee, and good pace of play. Definitely worth the trip. Rush hour and/or race traffic can be a nightmare in that area, so plan accordingly!

Golf Now

Didn’t get to play, our flights were canceled and couldn’t make it out. The pro shop said we were all set with cancellation, but golf now charged me. $62 for nothing.

Thanks a lot. Like the course but never again

Above average condition

Course conditions are better than most other courses in the area. The greens and fairways are in good shape. There are some rough spots near the cart paths that need to be addressed. A little pricey, but some discounts are available on Golfnow. I play here now on a monthly basis.

Course condition

I’ve played here many times, this time course was Terrible! Grass not cut in fairway well, one hole shut down due to green being destroyed. Pace of play is always bad. Food is terrible and 7.50 for a skinny generic hotdog! Won’t play here again unless I have to due to tee times at other courses. I play verdict ridge a lot and they know how to keep a course up and don’t charge crazy prices for everything! Also have free range balls which is great
