River Marsh Golf Club - Hyatt Chesapeake Bay

About
The Hyatt River Marsh Golf Club is Maryland's leading Eastern Shore golf course. The classic design incorporates challenging elements including sculpted bunkers and mature trees but balances them with wide, player-friendly fairways and inviting greens. Water has a prominent presence on the course with Shoal Creek meandering through the course and the Choptank River serving as a backdrop to many of the greens. The riverside golf course has the look and feel of a seaside links course. The final two holes are the golf course's most memorable. The par-3 17th requires a dramatic carry over Shoal Creek to a large green strategically guarded by three bunkers. The 17th is a challenging and scenic hole but it only sets the scene for Hyatt River Marsh Golf Club's final hole. Touted as one of the best holes in the Mid-Atlantic region, this classic risk-reward par 5 has a bunker and the Choptank River running its entire length.

Hyatt Cambridge
Course was in much better shape than 2 weeks ago, the sand traps are freshly filled, grass is now cut properly. Well worth the time
Great Layout, disappointing condition
I was really looking forward to playing here for the first time. The course layout was terrific - lots of variety and natural beauty. The greens and traps were in good condition, but the fairways and rough had lots of thin/bare areas. By mid-May, the course was not in great shape compared to other courses in the region. Also, sections of cart paths are in need of repairs. Overall, a nice round but disappointed in the condition of the course.
Great Course
Beautiful course with a very friendly staff. One of my favorites on the Eastern Shore to date. Will play again!
greens
Greens need fertilizer after aerate. Not recovering in the time they should have.
Golf at Hyatt
Played today 4-21-2022. Tee boxes and fairways, Big Aerated holes. Greens small holes filled in with sand.
So greens rolled ok, sure they will get better. Wasnt to bad. Will play again.
Good layout friendly staff condiion needing improvement
First time playing this on a Sunday afternoon. Not many people playing, so the pace is excellent with no waiting. Great layout, generous fairways. Unforunately fairways and greens and even tee boxes are under aerations, making plays a bit more challending. The fairways are very dry and hard, wih lots of rough patches and weeds. The rough is uneven with quite a bit of weeds. Some of the tee boxes are full of weeds too. The greens are also very dry and coarse with aertion holes, tough to judge speed and lines. The bunkers are in great shape. Overall the condition is not the best to play, but will be coming back when the condition is better.
