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.

Pace of Play good for Memorial Day
We had good weather, the fairways are tight , but the length of the course is not that long. For a Memorial Day the pace of play was good.
Nice Course
I hadn't been to Rivermoor in a very long time. It was fun to be back. The course is in good shape, and the many trees and smaller greens make for a round of golf that is both challenging and fair.
Great round at Rivermoor
I've played here since I was a kid (20 years worth). New management has taken down more trees over the years, so it's not as tight as it used to play. Overall, the course is always in great condition from opening day through the fall.
Tee boxes could use a little TLC on a few holes, but I typically choose to play here when I can. The value is great, and their twilight rates are even better. It'd be OK with me if the clubhouse would crack down on dress code a bit more, but it's their discretion.
Bar was redone a few years back and the food is very good as well. There's a great deck to eat/drink on, and watch groups come up 18.
too busy
they put too many people on coarse
Good Time
Everything was excellent, The day was beautiful and the pace of play unreal 18 holes just under 3 hours
Nice nature view
Greens are kept clean, nice natural terrain, enjoyed scenery and great golf round.
Ttight fairways
The course was in great shape and we played in a little over 3 hrs! The guy behind the counter wasn't all that friendly, not a people person from what I saw. Still I will play here again
Nothing to drink...
It's Labor Day Monday and it's 85 degrees and extra humid. There's NO drink cart and NO drinking water anywhere on the course. I go into the bar and was informed they don't keep any bottled items there (water. soda, tea) those items are in the clubhouse. I walk over to the clubhouse and grab two iced teas. The person that was checking out the items I bought was nice. The man behind him was not. I question the lack of drink cart and he said they couldn't get anyone to drive the cart around today. Then I mention the lack of water jugs on the course and the man says in a snarky voice "Well there's some ponds out there." I have a sense of humor but that wasn't funny. I've never been to a course that didn't have either drink cart service or drinking water on the course, especially on one of the busiest and hottest days of the summer. The course was in ok shape except for around the pin. It was like someone was scraping their feet. I don't think I'll ever be going back.
Nice course
Course is very nice and fairly easy to play. Greens are really small and fast so be aware. Also, no drinking water available on the course and no beer cart person.
Nice little course
A few narrow fairways, but in excellent shape. Best time to play is after 10, unless you like fairways and greens full of dew. No drinking water on course or "cartgirl" while we played and finished at 11, so plan to bring your own hydration.
Good Course
*** 1/2 with a nice club house with a friendly staff
8/20/15 early am
course was fun, fairways great shape, greens were disappointing, in need of mowing, and a bit chewed up from golfers who don't care or are to stupid to fix balls marks.
I
Rivermoor
I thought the course was in very good shape. The fairways were green and the ruff was cut to an appropriate length. The green were well maintained.
My only challenge was that my group played the course an hour under the normal pace of play and the groups behind us were playing at breakneck speed, which left us feeling rushed most of the round.
Be straight
The course was fairly tight. Most fairways were tree lined. Not long but challenging because of the tightness. Most greens have bunkers, but it had rained hard the night before and they all had big puddles in them. We were one of the first groups out in the morning so pace of play was good, but there were many people on the course by the time we finished so I am not sure what the pace would have been then.
Excellent 19th hole
Plenty of brews on tap and froendly staff. Nice menu with lots of good appetizers. Course is short but tight with it's own challenges.
Enjoy the round greens are in great shape
Positive : Electric carts greens and fairways and sand traps ... negative : finding next tee box and apparently no requirements for college shirts etc. typical for a medium quality facility
Rich
Great course some holes are challenging because they are tightly lined with trees, but others are parable for the average golfer if you hit a couple of shots. It's a great course.
Challenging course in great condition
I like to play here when ever I can friendly staff, no problems at all. Great fairways and greens.
