River Oaks Golf Club stretches across more than 800 scenic acres along the Intracoastal Waterway. The Course begins with the shortest of the three nines and finishes with the longest. The final hole on the front nine presents one of the most interesting risk-reward opportunities on the golf course. You can aim for the right bunker for an open shot at the green or try a long drive down the left side for a short approach. River Oaks Golf Clubs' Otter nine has several challenges in store including mounding, strategically placed bunkers, and tricky water hazards.

Awful conditions

Without any information at pro shop, this was the worst conditions of any course we’ve played at. It was so wet and that wasn’t just from the rain the previous day. It was cart path only and we finally finished and we were loaded with mud. When you were in wet lies you had to walk 25-30 yards to find a half dry spot. We went to the pro shop after and a young kid was basically laughing in our face after we asked if there was anything they were doing for the golfers after not explaining how bad the conditions were before hand and having to play like this? He said no all I can do is apologize.
