Raven Rock Golf Course sits in the mountainous terrain of eastern Kentucky near Jenkins, a small community in Letcher County close to the Virginia border. The course was designed by Jack Fykes and Bob Lohmann, architects who have worked on several layouts in the Appalachian region where dramatic elevation changes and rugged topography present both design challenges and opportunities for memorable golf holes. The routing at Raven Rock takes advantage of the natural contours and wooded hillsides characteristic of this part of Kentucky. Golfers encounter significant elevation shifts throughout the round, with holes that climb and descend through forested corridors and across ridgelines. The design works within the constraints of the mountain landscape, offering a mix of uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies that require thoughtful club selection and course management. The setting provides views of the surrounding Appalachian ridges and valleys, and the course serves as a recreational amenity in a region historically centered on coal mining. Raven Rock offers golf in an area where courses are relatively sparse, making it a notable option for both local residents and visitors exploring the mountains of southeastern Kentucky. The layout reflects the practical approach often taken in mountain golf design, where architects must balance playability with the dramatic natural features that define the site.
