Overview

Jim Engh’s architecture is all about turning fantasies into realities, and Black Rock delivers on that goal like few others, with some bobsled-run fairways (where one can putt from landing area downhill to the green), rollicking putting surfaces framed by squiggly bunkers and a par-4 11th pinched by towering rock formations that bring to mind a pinball machine. Unusual and controversial (it won Best New Private in 2003 ahead of No. 16 Friar’s Head and No. 71 Dallas National), Black Rock is a thrilling round of golf.

“Wonderful Engh course with even better views. The course certainly was built for aesthetics but is still fun and relatively easy for all skill levels to play. Bring your camera."

“Great views, great variety in holes. An argument can be made that this is Jim Engh's best work."

“Great course, clubhouse and service. The two nines are very different with a more open layout on the front and more trees, water and elevation on the back. Several holes have terrific views of the lake and a couple have unique waterfalls over the rocks. One of the best clubhouses I've seen with lots of natural wood and western art. The course is great fun to play ."

“Gated, secluded. One of the best clubhouses in golf. It is cart golf - although someone in very good shape might be able to walk it. Stunning lake views, interesting rock formations, and a waterfall that stops one in their tracks to look at it. Top conditioning gives the whole experience a decadent feel. A very fun day of golf. If invited, jump at the chance."

“Great course with nice views and friendly staff. They were super accommodating overall and my caddie was able to give me an in depth history of the course."
