River Marsh Golf Club - Hyatt Chesapeake Bay
Rating Snapshot
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.

Par 3 17th Photo submitted by u528713553 on 11/30/2015
Great Value
The pace of play was perfect. Greens were also in perfect condition. I would definitely play this course again.
Looks to be amazing course
We played the day after a storm. Course was cart path only. Ground keepers were doing their best to get it up to par. Great bunkers, soft greens, wide fairways, be back when it's dry
Course in great shape despite horrible drought
We were totally surprised how good the fairways look since there had not been rain for almost 6 weeks Greens in good shape it is pricey but you’re definitely getting a better course than average staff is great
Better in the past
I drove 1 hr 20 min to play.. I had a free coupon to play and glad I did. The walk up rate of $129 is way too high for the quality of course. The Tee boxes are in awful shape, 3 or 4 fairways also in rough shape. The greens were very nice. Still amazed at how many ball marks I saw that were not repaired. As a twosome we played the first 15 holes in under 3 hours. Then ran into a 4 some that would not let us through. ( 2 couples). This is what you get at a resort course. Next time I will drive to Bulle Rock and for $99 is way better shape.
Fairways and tee boxes not good
I played this course in June and the layout was challenging and the course was in good condition. The layout is obviously the same, but the course conditions have seriously declined. The tee boxes and much of the fairways are without grass in way too many places. And given the recent rain and the lack of grass to absorb it, it was oftentimes a case of hitting out of the mud. if you could even find your ball, often plugged on the fairway.
Just not an enjoyable course right now; they need to do some serious work to improve condityions..
Pleasant surprise
This course was on my favorites list for years, I received a golfnow hot deal that I couldn't refuse. We booked a night at the Hyatt and came over to play from the DC area. Had problems with the golf now web site, although it listed four players it would only let me book one player and I needed 2. Called Abby and she was very gracious and helpful and offered to give me the lowest rate possible. I contacted the golf now customer service and they resolved the problem. My wife and I had a great round of golf. Staff were friendly, courses in walking distance from resort. 18th hole is very beautiful.
Less than 2 hours (1:50) from the DC area. Great get away, great course. Will play again soon!
very comfortable
Played at our own pace and thoroughly engoyed the round.
Hot day
Rough too high. Needs cutting. Course decent shape and layout. Greens very good. Very hot day. Enjoyed myself.
Great course
Very nice course great shape good price just had to turn the heat down hot day
Sand traps
The course was amazing. The only complaint I have is the sand traps. Yes I spent way too much time in them. They didn’t have enough sand and the edges could have been kept up better. Again the course was amazing.
Always a winner
Always a lot of fun. Always in perfect shape and the staff are fantastic.
Loved it
Bent greens, bent fairways and tees.
Great condition, great layout with a good mixture of holes; short, long, hard, easy, etc.
Loved the course and will surely be back!
Wonderful experience
The Hyatt golf course truly is a phenomenal destination for a round of golf. We booked a hot deal and made a long drive to play and were not disappointed. The course was in beautiful shape and the staff was excellent and very knowledgeable about the course. I would highly recommend this course to anyone if the price is right.
great course in excellent shape
This is a well laid out, well maintained course with lots of fun holes, including two that abut the Choptank River. Prices vary a lot, but if you can get a decent deal at golf.now, go for it.
