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.

Great Course at River Marsh
Course was in excellent shape! Generous fairways, but msfe you think. Pace of play was great. Many challenging holes, including the signature 17th. Golf Now discount rate made it a better deal, but I would also come back and play at the full rate!
Fun track
Other than the greens having some divot marks, and running a little slow, course was in good shape.
Another great day at Hyatt!
Conditions are great! (Except sand traps)
Whoever came up with putting a stake on fringe at depth of flag on green needs a raise! Even knowing pin position they were very helpful. Every course should do that.
Was a blistering hot day and they had a cart come around with free water and cold towels! Thanx!!!
Nice meal at their Blue Point restaurant after our round.
I shot an 89 which made it even better!!!
Not what it used to be…
This course is not what it used to be. It is overgrown, the rough is filled with clover and overgrown. The pace of play is ridiculous and the ranger was present only after we called. We ran into a 7-some on 6 that we were waiting on the tee box for and they wouldn’t let us play through, so we passed them. Then, we ran into a twosome on 7 in which one person was coaching and lining up every single shot for the next person including spending no short of 5 minutes with him ON the tee box while we were trying to be nice and wait, so we passed them…then we ran into a 6-some and that is when my husband absolutely had it. This was all on the front nine. We called in, they seemed surprised. If the ranger was truly making rounds, it would have been evident. Just upsetting to pay that much money and have that kind of experience. I talked this course up to my son as we took him there for his birthday, it was absolutely beautiful when we played there 7/2/2022 and it was a less than desire able experience today…golf is an 80% mental sport and waiting for every single shot gets you out of tempo, not to mention the frustration when other people have absolutely ZERO golf etiquette. The cart girl stopped her rounds at 1:30, before we even teed off and she told us it was her last round so if we wanted anything, we needed to get it. The brand new carts are nice though!
Great course
The course was in excellent condition. Challenging and fun.
River Marsh
One of the prettiest and best maintained course I have ever played. Really fun and challenging layout. Only downside was the clubhouse bar was never open when I wanted a drink. 9 1/2 out of ten overall. Strongly recommend!
Call ahead
Call ahead to make sure food is being served. Nothing like showing up to a high dollar course with the intention of eating your lunch there and all grills an kitchen closed. Very annoying, frustrating for a type 1 diabetic.
