MOSQUITO WARNING This golf course is very nice. Greens and fairways beautiful. BUT the absolute SWARMS of mosquitos made me want to pack up and leave by the 6th hole (out of 18). There are no less than 20 mosquitos covering each players body and cart at all times on the course. But dont worry, you get a subtle warning from the starter that 'mosquitos are bad today'. Thats the biggest understatement ever spoken. He should've said they are 5 times worse than a deep Louisiana swamp could ever hope to be. The fact that the Pro shop and cart people dont hand out bug spray for free in each and EVERY cart is criminal. To then take it a step further and charge TEN DOLLARS for cheap bug spray at the turn is comical. Will never be back, will never tell anyone to go back, may never play any course in Daphne or fairhope again after this day. Going to nurse my 50 mosquito bites covering my body now. Thanks for the round rock creek.. They should consider closing down temporarily until they get that problem solved. Its THAT bad
Rock Creek Golf Club in Fairhope, Alabama is one of the most enjoyable and well-maintained golf courses on the Eastern Shore. The course layout is both challenging and fun, making it a great option for golfers of all skill levels. Each hole offers a unique design with tree-lined fairways, well-placed bunkers, and smooth greens that keep the round interesting from start to finish. One of the standout features of Rock Creek is how beautiful the course is. The scenery is peaceful, with plenty of natural surroundings that make it feel relaxing while still providing a competitive round of golf. The course conditions are usually excellent, with fairways that are well-kept and greens that roll consistently.
Please avoid this course at this time. It is a very nice course overall and it is in good shape on the greens, however mosquitos are currently horrible and are heavily present through out course. i got bitten roughly 40 times, after putting on roughly 3 layers of bug spray.
$90 for a round with a small bucket of balls. Was told to put my cooler back in my car. No cart girl on a Saturday. Couldn’t get waters or beer. Tee boxes are absolute garbage. Range box is garbage. Go to RTJ
I love this course. Carts are fast. Beverage cart personnel is flattering. Many holes with a lot of elevation challenges. Fairways and greens are a nice 9/10. The tee boxes could use some work but it’s just that time of the year where we’re all out there regularly tearing them up. The venue itself is sprinkled with a lot of residential lots. Stay out of their backyards, you heathens. The par 3’s are very challenging.
