Home Course?

I have been playing The River Club for about 2-years now. Though not a member, I treat this course as my Home course, as I play there frequently, I enjoy the staff and like the challenge this course lays out for players. Kudos to the superintendent, greens keepers and the staff for providing a well kept course, despite the challenges Mother Nature can unleash.

First Time Playing

Wow - What a nice course!

You get a 5 rating for our entire golf experience. Greered with a smile when we walked in the door and then we teed off at your splendid golf course. Course was difficult bit very fair. Greens were a bit slow but in good shape. Ranger was nice and we had a great day of weather - friendship and golf. Thank you! We will be back in January!!

Not too easy

The course was not easy to play

Fairly long with some difficulties

The marshals were not nice and friendly

They forced us , during the game, to play with two unknown men

One of the stuff shouted on us, because we played a provision ball

The game after us, had only to wait one time

Nice course, getting better every time I play

Course conditions improving every time I play it. It has a great lay out but a few greens have bare spots they are working on. I am looking forward to playing it again come Feb./Mar. Much harder course from back two sets of tees.

Overbooked Course

The course was double booked for our twilight tee time which caused poor pace of play. Beware, it is not possible for finish 18 holes for their twilight rate.
