River Oaks Golf Club

Despite the day being a "Cart Path" only day. We still enjoy our round. Some soft spots and standing water on a few fairways. Other than that... a great place to play!

I played this course once the first year it opened. Yesterday was 1st time back since then. The greens, fairways, views, everything about this course is amazing. Friendly staff also amazing. The speed of the greens and their undulations make them tricky but extremely fun. The fairways from tee to green do not guarantee flat lies so your swing needs to be on point. Chipping around the greens is fun as they are all manicured well. The elevation changes I forgot about but are amazing. You can lose a ball or three, but it is worth it to play here. If you have a chance to play here then definitely do. If you are disappointed it will not be the courses fault.

This course received many 5 star reviews and we chose to play here as a result. The reviews were spot on, greens roll fast and true, tee boxes, fairway in great shape. This will be our course to play when we are at the lake. Only criticism is I wish there was a way to get beverages and food while on the course. I am assuming it is not financially feasible. Nonetheless we had a great time playing and looking forward to playing it again this summer.

I have lived in the Charlotte area since 2007, and this is one of the niicer courses that I've played. I'm baffled that I haven't played here before. I have recommended it and we'll see you soon.

Course from tee to green is in great shape. The greens are a little slow but their condition is excellent. Value for money is unbeatable in this area.

River Oaks is a beautiful course, great layout and very well maintained. The clubhouse staff were friendly and helpful as well. I’m looking forward to playing the course again.

Been a while since I played here. Tony Henderson has made additional investments in the course and greatly improved overall conditions and playability. Challenging layout with improved tees and greens makes River Oaks a must play.

Improvements continue at River Oaks with new carts, some cart paths and new sod. Greens were hard and fast, fairways were very good. Even the parking lot was redone. Worth the trip.

Nice, tough layout. Slick greens. Bring your A game and plenty of balls for all 18 holes. Staff was very friendly.

Whoever said the greens don't hold or was mach 7 speed was way wrong , no they don't leave big ball marks but hold very well. Also aren't extremely fast nor slow , very good condition. Love the changes on the course.

The most difficult greens in North Carolina. Putting a 12 with new Mach 1 Bermuda. Welcome to Augusta playing. Bring a putt putt style putter. I putted withmy hands on the steel to slow it down. 3’ putts will turn into a 10’ on the miss. The greens had zero ball marks. They were perfect. The course is hilly and difficult. Premium on driver shots is needed. Carts are the most technology I have seen. Pair bluetooth with phone. Screens to view greens, accurate yardages, fast as well. I lost 16 strokes on putts. Put my hands on the metal shaft to putt to slow it down. If you want to know what pros deal with at Majors come on down.

This course is a hidden gem. The layout is excellent with large changes in elevation and beautiful fairways. The greens are well placed and manicured to perfection. It has several challenging holes and the views are amazing. Definitely one of my favorite courses to play.

Due to green conversions to Bermuda the course will be closed from mid-june to mid-september, and is currently operating on 16 holes due to reconfiguration on 2 holes. Its Puzzling to me as to why they want to do all this and spend so much money yet continue to operate the place like a $20 Goat Track course! The Carts are just plain nasty and and worn while the clubhouse bathroom is alway nasty and unsanitary! Membership prices could be increased by 50% here once reopened if they would hire some energetic clubhouse staff, and make a couple improvements their current processes. . The 2 longtime current guys quit caring years ago thus why everything around the clubhouse suffers. The Range Balls may be some of the worst I’ve ever experienced as many are 10 yrs old and or cracked. Current course conditions are great and I hate to see the Bent Grass Greens being converted.
