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.

Wet, wet, wet

A decent course at a low price. It was very wet the day we played. Some areas verged on unplayable.

I enjoyed the course however the pace of play was terrible. It should never take five and one half hours to play 18 holes. The ranger should have did his job and speeded the play up.

Fun course

Played there on a nice fall day. Super helpful on arrival. There is a nice driving range to warm up on. Course conditions were good and you need to play thoughtful golf by placing your shots carefully. Many holes you need not use your driver. I played the gold tees. Overall the course was a good experience at a reasonable price.

Shot makers course

Front 9 was tough big hitters need to dial it down and shape your shot. Back 9 you can swing it. Very enjoyable very busy so play was a little slow but not bad
