An absolute dog patch. They should let cows graze there. Possibly the worst course I've ever played.

"The Rock" is a challenge. I defy you to find a less expensive challenge. You must be deadly accurate with your tee shots b/c the fairways are tree-lined and unforgiving. I've played the finest courses in the area, but none have come close to the difficulty awaiting you at Rock Creek Park. The front contains rolling hills and is fairly easy, but the back will come up and bite you. No 5s, all 4s. No.10 is a blind approach of about 180 yards. It only gets worse from there...

Where do I start.....

This goat track is a good value if you are used to playing golf in downtown Baghdad. A real value is The Woodlands just outside of Baltimore. After 4:00pm on weekdays - $36.00. This is a real golf course and test of ability.

low price and easy walk up tee times are a plus. Course is open giving the average golfer a chance to play a second shot.Back nine is quiet and scenic.

The course isnt well kept in some areas and the back nine is plenty tight and woody. I was almost run over by a buck chasing a herd of does. Course is rocky and lies can be unfair even for a decent shot.

Rock Creek GC is a good value overall if you are not accustomed to the manucured country club courses. If you can play there you can play anywhere in the world becasue conditions dont get any worse.

putting greens are good and if you dont mind losing a few bucks, jump in with the old timers as they get a putting contests, but beware theyve been playing those same practice greens for many years.

Deer, lebanon tree, Amen Corner (15-17).

The citadel of working persons' golf. Anyone who dislikes the Creek is a spoiled golf whiner.

At 12.50 for 9 holes, Rock Creek is one of the worst values in in the DC area. From the first tee to the last, I was appalled by the condition of the tee boxes and the fairway was like hitting from my back yard after 2 weeks of rain without mowing. Several times I nearly became a victim of wayward slices. Save your 12.50 for a sleeve of Pro-V1's. Its a much better value.

Did not bother

Don't expect manicured greens or perfect fairways, but you shouldn't for the price. Duffers might lose a few balls on the narrow fairwayed holes. You can't beat it for cheap, everyday golf within a quick drive.

beauty, price, easy by bus

I was there in October accompanying my wife on a two-week visit. She had to work, I had brought my clubs over from Europe! Perfectly placed in the middle of Rock Creek Park, just a 20-minute bus ride from Capitol Hill. Super surroundings, beautiful trees (especially during the Indian summer) and deer accompanying you along the course. Sure the fairways were far from fair and I´ve seen better greens, but the experience is definitely worth the price(was $16). During the week there was hardly anyone around (nice and quiet), but allways someone to play with.

Customer Service

Basic and very friendly.
