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.

Condition of course

Course was very wet. Mist bunkers were under water. Very mushy. My feet got covered in ants on two holes, that bite, and I wasn't in high grass or woods. Just in tge ruff around fairways.. They should consider spraying for ants.

Great course

I really enjoyed this course. The fairways and greens are in good condition. This was my first time playing Bermuda grass, so that was a bit of a challenge, the ball just drops out of site

No very friendly

Course manager very shirt when He saw that we were golf now users. All that we were doing was questioning play because there was supposed to be lightning coming in. He said it really doesn’t matter because we have to try to cancel through golf now and if they call and ask if the course is open he’s going to tell them yes. We showed up luckily the lightning held off we got around in. The regular Clark was very accommodating

Second try

This was my 2nd time here. I’d been here years ago and wasn’t pleased with course conditions. On this trip I thought I’d give it another try. Conditions were a bit better but overall it was disappointing. Otter side is a rather mundane 9 holes but standing water in traps made them unplayable. Muddy fairways and beat up tee boxes. Greens were ok. The fox side has some really neat holes. Not as much mud but bunkers still unplayable. I’ve done it twice so I’m all set. On positive note staff is very friendly

Thanks

Our twosome took over 4 hours to play because they overbook and stack players. Nobody waved us through so apparently they have 0 golf etiquette! We traveled from out of state and now we know to avoid this course in the future.
