The River Club

Nice public course. Nice little clubhouse with good food. Well worth it for the money. Course was in good shape. Only 2 complaints. We ordered food when we started 8th hole. Got there half hour later and still had to wait another 40 minutes. Also, the driving range fiasco. You have to take a golf cart to the range and then when done, drive back to the clubhouse and switch carts? The “range” cart was nicer then the one you use for the course. Very strange and inconvenient. I still recommend.

River Club Golf Club is an interesting track with unique holes. No back and forth boredom. Conditions are improving rapidly since new ownership two years ago. Very pleased to get on this course in the busy season for a reasonable rate. People... please play ready golf and keep it mov'in!

Played The River Club for the first time in several years and found that it was much improved and staff much friendlier than under prior ownership. Starter got me out approx. 10 minutes prior to scheduled tee time. Pace of play was not fast, but this is the norm this time of year in SW Florida. Greens were slow but rolled true, with no bare spots or damage of any kind. Fairways and tees were acceptable. Sand traps leave a bit to be desired. All-in-all it was a pleasant experience and I look forward to going back.

Tees, fairways and greens actually green! Course looks really good.

Course just OK. Would be much better if greens were cut so ball would roll better!

Pace of play has been the issue but yesterday we finished (first time in five rounds) in 4:10 which is fine during heavy season. Enjoy the golf course and will be back weekly.

The course was in very nice condition and the pace of play was excellent, finished in just under four hours. Had a 10:10 tee time.

The staff was friendly and while we didn’t see the drink cart on the front nine we saw her three times on the back.

Not sure of the reviews stating that the staff wasn’t friendly, we found them to be great.

Will definitely be back to this course.

both the cashier and I were very confused as the proper procedure to check in. I showed up approximately 22 minutes prior to my tee time. He would not check me in and told me to come back because he was to not check people in until 15 minutes prior to tee time. I complied, came back exactly 15 minutes before tee time and he again would not check me in and told me to come back in 10 minutes. I told him if I did that there would be no way for me to have time to check in, find the starter and check in with him, get to my cart and make it to the tee at my tee time. I specifically asked "should I check in at 16 minutes until the tee time or 14 minutes prior to tee time. He didn't seem to know or understand what I was asking but stated something about him not wanting to lose his job and was doing what he was told. It was all very confusing for both him and I. He was pleasant through the whole thing. I should point out that I booked my tee time via golf now

There seemed to be a little confusion on tee times. According to the starter there were 3 different groups with the same starting tee time, this snafu pushed our tee time back over 20 minutes and we barely finished, on the edge of darkness…. Otherwise all was good

Staff was good, guys in front grabbed the bag quickly and the starter was cool as well

Course was in pretty good shape, just took every bit of 5+ hours to get around.

Half way house was closed at 3:00 , and the cart was basically the same time - didn’t like that

There’s a good reason 17 is # handicap!!

Too many players on the course. Round took over 5 hours. Had to wait on every shot. At times there were 4 foursomes waiting to tee off.

Otherwise the course is very good, fair and challenging. All fairways and greens are over seeded with rye grass. Great surface to play on.

The course was in great shape and staff was very friendly. Great value course. Only problem was there was no cart girl and layout didn’t return you to the clubhouse after nine.

I believe this is one of the best maintained courses in the area offering a moderate price. We enjoyed playing the fairways and the greens were in good shape. It was challenging enough for a good golfer. We plan on returning with friends.

Got to the course for our tee time around 1:30pm hoping that we could finish before dark. Starter said they were running a little behind about 10min. NO we didnt get off till 2pm. As they didnt even have enough carts and had to wait for groups to finish.

They put a 5some out in front of us (Note this is a Saturday)). They were aweful and didn't keep up with the groups in front of them.. we were losing sunlight and realized we probably wouldn't be able to finish. At 15 we drove around and jumped this 5some to the 16th hole. There wasn't another group pf people all the way to the end. They were 3 holes behind the group in front. This is bad course management to do this and no starter out on the course.
