Rocky Gap Lodge & Golf Resort

Play the Mid-Atlantic's only Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course. Located in Cumberland, Maryland, an easy 2 hour drive from Baltimore, Washington, DC, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg.

The course is breathtakingly beautiful and set in the mountains of Western Maryland. Our ongoing relationship with the Nicklaus organization enables us to preserve Jack's original design intent, as well as ensure both optimum conditioning and playability.

The course offers dramatic elevation changes, on-cart GPS system, extensive range and practice facilities, lessons from a PGA professional, a fully stocked pro shop and on-property lodging with great value on golf packages.

Rated in the Top 100 in the Mid-Atlantic by Washington Golf Monthly. Come experience why Jack is not only the greatest player ever, but known as one of the best architects in the world as well. Located at Exit 50 off Interstate 68, 6 miles east of Cumberland, Maryland.
