Rocky River Golf Club At Concord

Played this course with a group of 8 on 2/26/24.February golf in these parts can be a roll of the dice.We came up with a winning roll on a Monday with 71 degrees and sunny!This course is #3 on the B-Man's guide to the top 10 Charlotte area golf courses. It's a good course but a #3 seems overrated to me.Understanding it's February so granted, not ideal conditions.Still a problem when you have more than half an entire green surface under repair. You get only one Par 3 on the front and two on the back.The fairways are wide open and forgiving. The tee boxes all in good repair.You get the computerized electric golf carts. The check-in and Staff was smooth and everyone was nice. The bar/restaurant experience was good.As a Senior golfer, you get considerable tee advantage on most all of the holes. There is water but it doesn't come into play.They had patrolling Ranger maintaining pace of play.It is literally right adjacent to the Speedway. On several holes, you can see the Grandstands. I think you want to avoid this place on race day.

A really nice course at a very surprising location. Wedged in between the Charlotte raceway and the drag strips. This public course played with a strong longer fri t nine and the back nine was spotted with some Interesting doglegs and short par fours. Only other gripe I had was that some of the tee boxes were pretty beaten up. Not surprising since this was a public course. But all in all a very enjoyable round.

Challenging layout with excellent greens for putting. Well appointed pro shop, nicely merchandised with competitive prices.. Electric carts with built in GPS are a big plus - you can even listen to hip-hop, Mozart, or cool jazz using the Bluetooth option (Wha?!). Large rocks come into play on several holes, particularly #3.On the downside, this course is carved out of lowland woods so your ball is easily lost just a few few feet off the fairway (but you can usually find someone else's ball!). Some holes are cart path only due to soft fairways, negating the cool GPS carts. Grill room is okay, although during slow season the menu is very limited. Probably would be better if more golfers (and non-golfers) stayed for sandwiches.All-in-all, a very good golf experience - one of my favorites in the Charlotte area. I highly recommend this course and please stay for lunch and a draft beer.

Great course with amazing energy, a friendly staff and a quiet atmosphere. Highly recommend for a course just a reach away from Charlotte.

This is a nice course in Concord right by the Charlotte Motor Speedway. I believe UNC Charlotte's golf team uses this course as well as the Korn Ferry Tour on occasion. It's a little bit on the pricier side for my friends and I, but if you're able to play on a weekday afternoon, you can definitely get a good price. I've been here multiple times and the greens are always in great shape and running pretty quick. The carts are the nicest I've used because they have a screen in them with several different features such as showing distance from the hole and the ability to order food from the clubhouse. They're electric so just be sure not to drive in restricted areas or else you'll get stuck! Overall, this is definitely one of the better public courses in Charlotte, but probably nothing special for serious golfers.

We played in early March and the course was mostly brown. Greens were surprisingly good. They strictly enforce the no beer in personal coolers So they can sell you a 6 pack for $24. Hide the beer in your bags until you reach the #3 T.

Five star course at a three star price. I absolutely love Rocky River golf club. The greens are always in immaculate condition even in the winter. One of the best and such an important feature that is not available at a lot of other golf courses is that they have navigation on the cart, and it doesn't just give you the yardage to the center of the green, it gives you exact yardage to the pin, the front and the back of the green. The course is challenging but definitely gives you an opportunity to score as well. If I have to nitpick, I will say that after a few days of rain the course can be very wet. I have noticed that is the case with a lot of other courses in the area as well but I do think the rain may hurt this course a little bit more. The facilities are great as well with a nice driving range and a great practice green. Since I have moved to Charlotte I have probably played approximately 35 rounds of golf, and about 25 of them have been at Rocky River. I kept coming back because of the value and how great the course is, but I definitely have to say I was always made to feel special when I would show up here. After my second time I would be welcomed with hello Sami how are you today? I definitely have to give credit to Joey and Christian, as those two gentlemen have been great to me since day one. If you have never played here I recommend you making it the next course you play.

This is a really fun course to play. A lot of really beautiful holes. Incredibly well maintained, and the greens are immaculate. Was in from out of town and had an absolute blast. Staff was super friendly, pace of play was great. I would highly recommend playing here if you are in the Charlotte area.

Greens were in pristine condition and fast! Fun course in some hills for this Florida boy to play.

Had a great time today on Rocky River! the staff was amazing and accommodatin with our large group. Shout out to Larry the starter!!!
