The Rock at Country Creek Golf Club in Pleasant Hill, MO is the first of the Country Creek affiliated courses to open and, consequently, it is the most mature. However, for whatever reason, it is not as well manicured or maintained as its sister course (Hoot’s Hollow) across the street or even The Quarry, which is right in between its 2 nines. Also interestingly, the fairway grass on The Rock is mostly spotty blue grass, compared to the zoysia fairways at the other two courses. Even though The Rock is more mature (larger trees) the course is still fairly wide open. The large greens are relatively slow and there are some sand and water hazards strategically placed. All in all, The Rock is a good course but not quite as nice as its sister courses. It is surprising that there is a need for 3 courses in this rural community. I would imagine that, at some point, the owners will combine The Rock and The Quarry into one 18 hole course, taking the best of the 27 holes. This would reduce their time and expenses and headaches by 33% on this side of the road.
