About
River Run Golf Links is a municipal course owned by the city of Bradenton. Unlike many others in the area, golfers won't have to worry about hitting homes on this non-residential course. The layout is player friendly enough for all skill levels to enjoy but it's also a fair test that is anything but boring. The two nines are referred to as the River Nine, the front, and the Pirate nine. The golf course is mostly straightforward and a pleasure to walk, although there are carts available. Ancient oak trees draped with Spanish moss provide shade and scenery throughout the course. Water has a prominent presence, coming into play on almost every hole. Some of the holes are tight and can be quite challenging but beginners can still approach River Run Golf Links with confidence.

Good Value
My son and I have played many courses over the last 3 years in Florida. The price of the round, for what you get, is a great value. We have played River Run four times now in three years

Best course value for money.
We are playing this course once a week although it is over an hours drive to get there. The course is well looked after & the staff are always helpful.
We have played other courses that seemed to have been neglected since we played there before so we would rather play a course that is well maintained.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing River Run Golf Links.

Felt like driving in traffic
Way too many groups stacked up. Every tee box had at least 1 group waiting, if not 2 in some cases. All said, still completed round just over 4 hrs, but wish we had a little less audience on the tee box! Course was in great shape, good challenging layout. Will try again before seasonal folks land

River Run golf course of Bradenton, Fl
The course is in very good shape for the heat of summer in central Florida. The course is laid out to challenge the player but not to frustrate them. The course can be easily walked but carts are available.

Snail Pace of Play
Went early, but the old guys in front were so slow. N the end only played 11 since it was hot, and I had my 8 year old son with me and he was overheating as we waited non-stop.
