Assistant Superintendent

Rocky Point Golf Course is currently seeking an experienced Assistant Superintendent!

Rocky Point, located in Essex, MD, is part of a 5 golf course system operated by the Baltimore County Revenue Authority. Opened in 1971, Russell Roberts skillfully created Rocky Point to be a challenging yet fair test of golf. Preserved natural wetlands meander through this picturesque setting, offering some of the prettiest views in all of golf in the Baltimore area.

While the length at Rocky Point is only 6,650 yards; architect Roberts added some deception and difficulty to the golf course. Rocky Point, with its many elevation changes, plays longer than its posted yardage.  Par at Rocky Point is set at 72, with a fairly open front nine and a back nine that is more tree lined and high-lighted by the three par 5’s.  Greens are large and inviting with strategically placed bunkers.
