Rock Barn Golf & Spa: Jones Course

Conover, NC · 3.3 mi away

The Jackson Course is the daily-fee layout at Rock Barn Country Club & Spa in Conover, North Carolina, set in the foothills of the western part of the state. It was designed by Tom Jackson and opened in 1969, giving it a classic, mature routing through rolling terrain. Undulating fairways and elevation changes put a premium on ball position rather than distance, and the course rewards accurate iron play into well-defended greens. It runs alongside Rock Barn's private course and shares the property's spa and clubhouse amenities. The Jackson Course is operated as the club's semi-private option, open to outside play alongside members. Walking is generally restricted, with push carts not permitted, so most rounds are played by cart.
