I love this track. Some challenging shots and and the back 9 is really beautiful. Only gripe is the greens were punched sometime the week of Jul 16th and I was surprised by the amount of sand still needed on the greens. Should be pristine in another few weeks.

Great Course

We stay in the area frequently but overlooked this course. Have not played in a year or two. Wow, what a fun course! Very challenging, lots of water. Precise shots in order on most holes. Price is very reasonable considering how good the shape of the course is in. Will play again!

Great course!

We haven’t played this course in a few years. Forgot how challenging it is but we loved the course conditions, friendly staff, and overall value for the money. We will play this course again!

What a course!

Fun layout! Driver not needed on many holes, rather a strategic tee shot with a lesser club. Challenging par threes. Every shot requires a thoughtful golf decision to be made! Hole 18 Par 5 is a stunning hole! Great hole to end the day. Definitely a shooters course. Bring your accuracy and golf shots, leave your 350 yard driver at home. Would definitely play again! Bring many balls! Water hazards will eat you alive if you don't avoid them! Lots of water. Fun for a guy who doesn't have much water around his home courses :)

OK for the money

Perfectly playable course. Some greens a bit rough around the edges. Under 5 hour round for four ball. Some bunkers flooded out by rain a few days earlier. Would go back if ever in the area again.

Great Course

First time at the River Club. The course was fun and challenging, with plenty of water and well placed bunkers to navigate. There is no range at this course which is why I rated the ammo irises low and they are without a clubhouse restaurant. The greens were a little rough around the collar on a few holes and were recently sanded which is why I rated overall condition a 4. The fairways, tee boxes and bunkers were very well kept. The staff was friendly and getting started was easy. I wish they had a range to practice mostly, but I hope to make it back here and recommend d this course.

OK

Course was ok! Lots of water and sand. There was no one on the course. Kind of unusual for this time of year. Carts were very temperamental.

I don’t think I think I would go back. Lots of other courses to try!
