Rock Barn Golf and Spa - Jackson Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Rock Barn Golf & Spa offers two championship courses, one designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. and the other by Tom Jackson. Nestled within the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the golf courses are provided with swiftly moving brooks and sparkling lakes that accent the wooded hills and lush, grassy meadows. The Jackson Course tumbles across picturesque valleys, offering both dramatic elevation changes and beautiful scenery. The layout is shorter and less demanding than the Jones Course but it is a challenge nonetheless. The undulating terrain demands accuracy and perfect ball placement. Fast greens are balanced by generous fairways. Water hazards also come into play. The course starts out intimidatingly with a narrow, uphill par 5 but the rest of the course is not quite as daunting.

A Fun Challenging Day at Rock Barn
Jackson Course is a challenging layout with a good amount of water and sand traps. Course was in excellent shape except for the tee boxes which were a little ragged. Played a bit short from the White Tees so I will probably try Blue next time. Greens were reasonably quick considering the they had been aerated the week before. Staff was very nice and the facility is a beautiful country club atmosphere for a reasonable fee. I had heard very good thing about Rock Barn and I was not disappointed. Had a neighbor chasing his dog across 1 fairway but within 2 minutes a friendly ranger helped them off the course!! Very attentive Staff. I will be back!!
Punched greens
A truly fun track with great aesthetics. Five delightful par 3’s. Not easy but fun . Thus trip they had recently punched the greens, so they were a bit slow and bumpy.
First time but not the last
This may be one the best courses I’ve ever played. It is demanding from the gold (back) tees, but also can be scored on. The course will not cost you strokes due to conditions. Absolutely loved our entire round. I would recommend to anyone who hasn’t, play here at least once.
Great track, 5.5 hr round
Great layout, fast greens. Played behind a group of 2-foursomes that refused to let anyone play through. No marshall to be found. We had 4 groups backed up in a tee box. I’m sure if this happened on the Jones Course there’d been heckl to pay bill be back but as this indicated, never in a weekend.
a sunny getaway
my buddies and I needed to get away for a round of golf before my radiation treatment. The Jackson course at Rock Barn was the answer. The weather was sunny and believe or not the conditions were great. Only 1 and 10 were cart path only. No where around the Charlotte, Rock Hill area was there any golf other than cart path only. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The range balls were part of the cost. Thank you again for a great round of golf with my pals at top of the line course.
