The Club at River Wilderness

Outstanding design, best value in Sarasota area. Greens a little thin but rolled true and fast, other than that one of best in the area.

Course condition was a bit dry but ok overall. Greens patchy but flat and true. Great value at $30 for nine. Booked again for tomorrow!

Went back because I found a hidden gem. Seems many have found the gem, because it was a lot more crowded. Still a good course for the money.

We play this course a few times during our Winter stay in the area. The layout is decent and challenging. It was a very gusty windy day and the course played longer. The greens are a good fast pace however, the fairways are in need of better maintenance with many areas patchy with sand and no growth. We do our best to fill every divot that others failed to do, while waiting for groups. If everyone did the same, it would help; including fixing ball marks on greens! The bunkers are the worst in the area. It's a dark gray heavy sand that you should avoid bunkers at all costs. Staff is always friendly and receptive.

Hidden gem of a course. Sits deep in the development, but in decent condition and very challenging to an intermediate golfer. Free range balls and a grass range are a big plus.

The Greens are good. The course is dried out so you get good roll but the fringes are not in good shape and the GPS system will make you back off the par 3's even thou they are in desert condition.

Local members jump in front of us after the starter had given us the playing order. The staff was fantastic at the course.

Birdwatchers delight, but golf conditions marginal. Great practice for tight lies in fairway. Greens look awful but putt okay. Our experience With staff was very good. Course layout was very good.

We arrived & told we were paid in full and meet the starter out front. Upon meeting the starter we were told he had no record of us having a tee-time. He made us feel he was doing us a favour by putting us in behind a single who was obviously not a golfer. He proceeded to tell the groups behind us that GolfNow never tells them when they book tee times and he had to let us in. The 4some behind us bypassed us on hole # 1 and went ahead of the single in front of us. I’ve never experienced this kind of behaviour at a golf course with the starter. Luckily for us the single. Player in front of us only played 9 holes so the back 9 was more enjoyable.
