Detailed description of Rocky Creek Golf Club, CLOSED 2015

Rocky Creek Golf Club is a Public 18 hole golf course located in Vidalia, Georgia.

Rocky Creek Golf Course opened for play in 1992. The course was designed by Jim Bivins.

This is a hilly, tree-lined course with large and undulating greens. It is a very scenic course. Water hazards that come into play on thirteen holes and sand bunkers are positioned throughout the entire course. Golfers will be challenged on all fronts by the rolling fairways and elevation changes, many hazards and lakes, and extremely large undulating greens. On 13 of the 18 holes, at least one shot will require crossing either a hazard formed by the meandering Rocky Creek and its wetlands or by a body of water guarding a tee shot or a green. As if this wasn't enough, numerous strategically located sand bunkers and mounds are scattered throughout the course to challenges. Once to the greens, the golfer will be required to position his ball so as to avoid the treacherous side or downhill putt.

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees, the course plays to 6,626 yards. From the forward tees, the course measures 4,757 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 18, a par-5 that plays to 542 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 15, a par-3 that plays to 146 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 4, a 378 yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 13, a 521 yard par-5.

The course closed in 2015.
