I wanted to share some honest feedback regarding my recent experience at your facility. Unfortunately, my visit was disappointing on multiple levels.
First, the condition of the greens was very poor — far below what one would expect from a course charging $100 per round. Based on the quality of play and overall experience, the course should realistically be priced around $50 at most.
In addition, the staff were unwelcoming and cold, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere from the moment I arrived. It genuinely felt as though the employees were unhappy to be there, which reflected poorly on the overall environment and service.
Another major issue is that the driving range closes at 3:00 PM. This is prime practice time for many people who come after work or school, and closing it so early makes little sense. It’s just another sign of poor management decisions that hurt the customer experience.
Overall, Rock Creek feels like a poorly managed facility that doesn’t justify the price or reputation it tries to maintain. If you’re looking to play golf in Fairhope, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere — for example, Magnolia Grove (RTJ in Mobile) or courses along the beach, both of which provide far better value, conditions, and service.
I hope this feedback is taken seriously and that the management makes meaningful improvements to the course, staff engagement, and pricing structure.

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.

Loved this course. Lots of elevation changes, greens are quick but true. Course facilities are very nice, staff was friendly, engaging and helpful. We played there while on vacation. If I lived there, I would become a member. We got a chance to talk with some of the regulars there, and they were friendly and inviting. I really love this course.

Gorgeous place to live at, specially if you love golf, quietness, nature, and you can afford over 800k dollar home :)

Had an on course lesson with Joe today and it was great. Hearing someone else’s take on course management opens up a whole new golf game! As far as the course goes the layout is great the first 9 greens are not the best but from what I hear they will also be redone. The back 9 is in great shape! Brand new fast greens make for a new challenge. Highly recommend! Definitely worth the trip up from gulf shores!
