The Rock Barn Country Club & Spa

We were visiting from out of town. Glad to have opportunity to play this course. First hole was a bit unexpected, but overall a nice course and nice staff.

Thoroughly enjoyed playing the Jackson course with my friends. The greens and fairways were in excellent shape. The bunkers were not in the best condition. Hopefully they will be better when we come back

First time to Rock Barn. Played the Jackson course. Great layout on a nice property. Outstanding Park 3's. Only downsides were some of the bunkers were unraked and had equipment tracks, and many unfixed ball marks on the greens.

Can't imagine a course being more nicely laid out, challenging, fun, beautiful, picturesque and worth playing for $35 than Rock Barn. Gotta be one of the top 2 public courses I've ever played. Went back this 2nd time in same vacation week because it was just so fun and nice and high value. We drove 35 min to get there - totally worth it. Don't miss this course if you're near Lake Norman in NC

Very good course private club and an open course. Jackson is the course they allowed me to play it was a good interesting layout kept in great shape and alot of fun. There was no one on the course and I just took my time but it was hot.

I can't wait to play it again.

On a busy Saturday the course choices were limited. My buddies and I had played the Jones course years back and found only the Jackson course was available to non-members. Our expectations were lowered from the reviews we read. Shorter, less challenging and a second choice to Jones was what was anticipated. What we found was a very good layout, with no hole like another, conditions were higher than most public course and the greens were Tournament quality. We had a great time and added this course to our list of courses accessible from Charlotte; 75 mins.

Only the 9th hole was a bit gimmicky - a truncated downhill par 3. The other drawback was the smell of the nearby wastewater treatment plant on the on hole 7. Overall the course was plenty long and the 5,700 yards from the blue tees seemed considerably longer, par 71 was part of the reason. The smaller front greens made up for some of the reduced length. We’ll be back.

I enjoyed my round at Rock Barn's Jackson course. The members were friendly as they joined our twosome as the pace slowed midway through the front 9.

The fairways were groomed and the greens were consistently moderate in speed. The rough, where I spent much of my time, was fair and not over penalizing.

I am looking forward to taking another opportunity to take the challenge at the Rock Barn.

Nice and friendly staff, very nice clubhouse and pro shop! Great course design! Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in great shape. A few of the fringes had a couple small dead/brown spots, a few of the bunkers were in rough shape because of the rain and washout. Other than that, I was very pleased

Greens perfect. Fairways nice. Layout is second to none. Plenty of tee options and just a fun place to play. Course well maintained making it one of my favorites.

Looks like they are either struggling from winter or just don’t put the time in anymore. They had just punched greens which is fine, but fairways and collars are rough. Most courses in the area are back to green not this one. Most tee boxes had no grass and was hard as a rock to get a tee in. Fairways dead circles everywhere, and now they have a ton of “Native” areas (areas they just don’t mow anymore).

We were not told they had just aerated the greens...

with the deal from golfnow... there's absolutely nothing I could say bad about RB. staff was friendly and very helpful (first time there) Amazing course!

Played the course many times.... not long at 6000 yds, but has some trouble in spots, kind of a cool hilly layout.

Course was in good shape . Lots of fun holes. Greens rolled well, and staff was very friendly. Enjoy playing here when I can.

I enjoyed playing this course especially for $30 ! Some holes were absolutely beautiful and a lot of tee boxes set up high so you could see layout of holes. Greens on front side seemed a bit smaller than on the backside but not too small. I’m not used to quick greens so I didn’t enjoy the speed of the greens. They have recently been verticut but overall in good shape. Not the most exciting greens but good. Course was in good shape and fairways pretty wide open. Definitely would come back or suggest playing this course especially at the $30 rate !!!!
