Rock Barn Golf and Spa - Jackson Course

This country club and spa is one of the best. Jackson course is public and in great condition. First hole is challenging with a long carry from the tee and a blind second shot. After that, the rest of the course is excellent. I would love to play here often but the rates are too high without Golf now discounts.

Rock barn sets the standard for public golf courses. The place is absolutely gorgeous. From the drive up to the clubhouse, to the facilities, to the complimentary range balls and the condition/layout of the course. Even the restaurant attached to the club house is top notch. The staff is fantastic and won’t let you lift a finger if you don’t want to. There’s not a better public course to play within 50-75 miles of rock barn. Do yourself a favor and make this a regular visit for your golf outings. You won’t be disappointed.

The course is maintained very well with good tee boxes, fairways, and firm, quick greens. There are definitely some DRASTIC elevation changes throughout both 9s that make it especially difficult to pick the correct number for first-timers, but overall it is a track I plan to re-play when I am back in the area.

Staff is super friendly. Course is stunning. And completely fair pricing. Will definitive be back.

First time playing and came away very impressed. As a qualifier, I’ve played a lot of the top golf courses in the US and am always searching for a solid public course when traveling. This course absolutely fit the bill.

The round starts with a Par 5 that works left for the approach as you climb a hill and starts with a visual intimidating tee shot. From here, we were treated to several quality hole designs and surprising elevation changes. While not overly long, I found the course challenging from the tips as a first time player. The par 3’s were the highlight for me but there was no shortage of quality designs to the par 4’s and 5’s. The staff was very friendly and there is a nice range, putting green and short game area. I will return and absolutely recommend.

Finished a Sunday afternoon round in 3.5 hours. Course is in great shape, and still very forgiving as we await the rough to wake up.

The Jackson course is hands down best course in the area. The staff is extremely friendly, course is in great condition and layout is perfect. This is how a golf course should look. Other courses charge more and the courses aren’t nowhere near as nice as Rock Barn. It is the type of course where you hate to see your round end. Go play if you haven’t!

This course is best public course in the greater Charlotte area. It was in amazing shape and can only imagine how plush it is in summer. The fairways are like greens at some courses in the area and those courses charge more than Rock Barn, if you want to see what a golf course should look like, by all means play here. Be sure your sand game is on point, as their are lots of green side bunkers as well as fairways. Golf carts have covers on them, balls on range already and is included. The only negative thing I have to say is that the cart was dirty, coolers full of grass which was surprising to me with how nice everything is, if you have been hesitating to play here, don’t put it off any longer. I will be back very soon.

This is such a beautiful course, They keep it in very good condition and the greens run fairly fast.

Love love this course. 10 is a beauty. Greens were a little moderate but rest of course was great.

Very wet day, 2.5 inches of rain in the past 48 hours, so cart path only. It didn't matter, we had a great day! Course seemed to have drained very well and the greens were in excellent condition. Little chilly unless the sun was out but the carts had covers! We topped the day off with a few beers and food watching golf on wide screen! We will be back!

Not really complaining. We are a twosome and got behind some members. The group ahead was a foursome and in front of them was a group of 5. Didn't even bother to offer us to play through. But not a big deal.

We are not members so didn't say anything. Took two people 5 hours to play 18.

Love the layout, the greens and the fairways. But if you're going to charge $70+ on the weekend you need to address the condition of the bunkers. They are terrible. I know you're supposed to hit it on the green stuff but sometimes you end up on the beach. If was just once in a while, I'd be okay with it but it's everytime I play here. Washed out, underlayment showing with big piles of sand in other places. I'm starting to have trouble justifying the green fee to play here. I love this course it's just......
