Rivermoor Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Originally opened in 1929 as the Waterford Woods Golf Course, the club reemerged in 2008 as the Rivermoor Golf Club. Along with its new name, the club also revealed improvements to the playability and condition of the 18-hole course. The design of the golf course was largely determined by the scenic topography, which is covered with mature trees and dotted with ponds. There are also a few streams that meander across the landscape. Rivermoor Golf Club is a proud member of the Audubon Sanctuary System. Beyond providing a secluded setting and great scenery, the terrain also makes for a challenging round. The trees frame most of the holes and water hazards come into play on a few holes. There are also strategically placed bunkers with which to contend.

It was very slow and people were jumping over without maintaining the atiqette. There was no ranger who controls the pace.
Perfect course
Played this after a massive rain storm in Burlington. Course was in great shape and we had a fun time being paired with two other people.
Great gem
Some of the holes are quite a challenge, especially for someone that cannot hit the green in regulation. It is a lovely course and a person can always learn from their mistakes. The staff is wonderful. Grounds are in great shape, so there goes that excuse. Enjoy, I did.
Nice course, tough greems
Played this course a few time last year and enjoyed it, first time this year
Narrow fairways and small greens. If you are accurate you can score well, if you are long (or not) but not down the middle you are often in trouble.
Greens were very hard and fast, very difficult to hold and putt. Like putting on concrete.
Will play again if I get the opportunity.
Challenging course
Nice and friendly staff a pleasure to play Rivermoore golf course
Good layout
Friendly staff, challenging course with small greens .Don't need to be a big hitter to play this course premium on accuracy
A day off work
I have play Rivermoor numerous times over the
years. I find the course challenging and fun. It is
not that long of a course which for me is good
because I don't hit as far as I used to. On 10/10/16
when I played with some friends, the weather was
perfect... sunny, about 68, nobody pushing us and
we didn't have to wait for anyone
Great Day
I've been playing Rivermoor for years absolutely love the course, unfortunately there was an outing the day I played and a 4 hour round was over 5 hours. If I was informed there was an outing that day. I wouldn't have played. Worst gold educate I've ever dealt with .
Look elsewhere until improvements are made.
Understaffed, boring course, cramped quarters, and plays easy difficulty. Major maintenance shortcomings, and driving range balls create confusion around neighboring holes due to location. I would consider playing again if given the proper attention it so badly needs, and would advise others to wait until it has received it. Desert-like patches on greens, rough, and fairways are inexcusable in this amount. Several bodies of water are poorly taken care of, creating an unpleasant atmosphere.
Dry
The tee boxes, fairways and greens all very dry and hard. Definitely needs some water. Pace of play was pretty slow. Lots of waiting at most tees.
Need a Ranger
Everyone looks for a lost golf ball, but more that a couple of minutes is to long.
Windy Round
Quite a windy day. Course played fast on the front 9 but a 3some of guys (inexperienced, all over the course, lots of practice swings) got in front of us on back 9. They weren't on the front 9. Really slowed the round down. No marshal on the course. Scorecard yardages didn't match actual yardages on some holes.
Greens are very small
Greens are small but soft allowing ball to stick on approach shots. Rough was very dry
Shaping up Nicely!!
I've been playing Rivermoor for the better part of 40 yrs. I've seen the good & the bad. But over the past few years, Rivermoor is getting back to it's "good old days". The tees & fairways & bunkers are in great shape. The only one little negative, the greens where just a little slow. But you can see the concerted effort made to improve this golf course & hopefully it will payoff with more players checking out this little gem soon. If you have never played here, don't be fooled by the lack of length. They're are some very tough longer par 4's. The fairways are narrow & tree lined & the greens are very small....Check it out, they are really discounting their rates through GN.
