Resort Amenities

Rocky Gap is more than a meeting site…it is a total experience with a Jack Nicholaus Signature Golf Course, Garden Spa, and a full-service adventure center.

Rocky Gap Lodge and Golf Resort is a sporting paradise. It is home to Maryland's only Jack Nicklaus golf course. In addition to golf, the Resort offers a wide variety of outdoor activities including everything from hiking, fishing, kayaking and sporting clays. Enjoy walking and hiking through the mountain area in the many marked trails of Rocky Gap State Park, a visit to the aviary, or fishing or boating on the adjacent lake. The Resort also offers an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, the Rocky Gap State Park Beach, The Rocky Gap Spa facility as well as a fitness room and tennis courts.

SPA

A distinct relationship exists between mind, body and spirit. At Rocky Gap Lodge and Resort, we strive to blend the beneficial aspects of traditional and ancient therapies and offer spa treatments to soothe, relax and rejuvenate. Located off the main lobby, our treatment rooms and certified staff of attendants are here to enhance your resort experience. Amid the lush mountains, serene lakeside setting and rustic lodge accommodations, you can choose which treatments best suit your individual needs.

Please call (800) 724-0828 for more information about the spa.

Golf

With a forested mountain setting and a pristine 243-acre lake our Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course will give you a completely new perspective on the wonders of golf. Mr. Nicklaus created an exceptional challenge for golfers of all levels here at Rocky Gap Lodge and Resort, in the center of Rocky Gap State Park. Our par 72, 18 hole championship course provides two distinct golf experiences - the front 9 holes are carved out of a heavily wooded mountainside with dramatic elevation changes. The back 9 holes feature expansive, gently rolling fairways and every hole offers scenic vistas, with Lake Habeeb and Evitt's Mountain serving as natural backdrops.

With 5-tee boxes per hole, and bent grass from tee to green, every player can adjust the challenge of the course to their individual level of play. The exhilarating course presents such a wide variety of shots that even the "Golden Bear" himself, Jack Nicklaus, has not broken par. Book your individual or group tee times at Rocky Gap golf and set your own personal best score.

Rocky Gap golf carts feature ProLink GPS (Global Positioning System) technology. Mounted on every cart, ProLink produces lower scores and all around enjoyment.
