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.

Not recommended

I would not recommend this course. The price was ok but the condition was not. Sand traps were horrible, greens were bumpy and the Bermuda grass was almost completely dormant. Staff very friendly tho.

Nice value

The course was in good shape even though it was a little wet. The greens were great but slow. Definitely playable. Some of the pins were placed on some tough slopes but I personally like the challenge. The only real major drawback was the number of slow groups in front of us. Yet, you can have that anywhere. Overall, very good.

Nice people nice course

First time playing this course starter was super nice and took time to explain the course. Layout was fun greens were just okay but it’s winter time so no big deal. My only complaint was very little or no sand in the bunkers. I would definitely play here again.
