Rocky Point Golf Course
About
Rocky Point Golf Course has one of the most interesting histories of any golf course in Florida. Originally opened in 1911 under the name f the Tampa Automobile Club, it was one of the first courses in the state. It closed in 1942 due to World War II. After being turned over to the city of Tampa for a mere $1, it reopened in 1954 as Rocky Point Golf Course. It is the closest golf course to Tampa International Airport, only a 15-minute drive away. The layout provides a fair challenge water hazards coming into play on 11 holes and sand bunkers strategically placed throughout. Rocky Point Golf Course's lakes are home to an abundance of wildlife and also serves as a bird sanctuary.

Not well maintained
Nice layout but fairways and tee boxes are not in good condition at all. Greens were pretty good.
Ok for the money
Very friendly and accommodating staff. Course was rough, fairways had a lot of burnt out and dirt areas, tee boxes were pretty beat up and uneven. Greens were long and slow
Rocky Points to happiness
G O L F. : Great Opportunities,Lots of Frustration Love this course!!
Idiot with a girlfriend
3:10 pm tee time on Saturday March 16. They put me behind a girl in a dress and Sandler who was whiffing at the ball on the first tee. I sensed it coming and asked her boyfriend if I tee off before them. But the idiot said they were all ready to go. I hope he reads this (if he can read). I immediately went to the pro shop and got a rain check. Next time take her the range.
Staff excellent

Spring Training
This is another go to golf course during our March stay. Price is good for this area. Course conditions good for a public course for this area and time of year. We will play here again in preparation for our summer golf in Michigan. Thank you Golf Now/Tee Off for the deals.
Played on a Thursday with a 12:00 tee time. Didn't get off until 12:45 due to member league play. Play was slow as a result.
