Ron Jaworski’s Riverwinds Golf & Tennis Club is situated along a scenic stretch of grassland between the banks of the Woodbury Creek and the deep harbor marina on the Delaware River. Its location gives it the feel of traditional seaside links courses found in Scotland and Ireland, which is further enforced by the sod-wall bunkers that lurk near the greens. The layout features plenty of water and incorporates the surrounding wetlands as well. One unique feature of the golf course is that the routing winds across a mile-long twisting burn, creating a visually interesting setting. Riverwinds begins with a gentle, mostly flat front nine but the mounding becomes more aggressive as you move onto the back. All of the holes face a different direction, which means you’ll most likely be using all the clubs in your bag to tackle the crosswinds and rugged terrain.

4+stars

Been a few years since I’ve played this track. Always enjoyed it. Always in good shape. Lots of rain the night before ant the course held up nicely. Greens were faster then expected. They even were able to get to some bunkers . Also the hot deal. All good 4+ stars.

Needs a couple things

The scoreboard was not handicapped on a per hole basis. You couldn’t tell which hole ranked hardest to easiest.

Carts are old and beat up

AERATING GREENS 1st WEEK OCTOBER

Course in great shape. Cart path only due to rain on Tuesday. Greens conditions some of the best of the season. Beware: greens being punched this week. Shared with us by Maintenance staff.

Unlikely that pro shop will share this info in advance. GolfNow used to use Advisory symbols for courses that recently aerified, but no longer do. Advice: Call ahead - ask questions before booking.

Greens were aerified at the end of August. This is not accurate information.

RiverWinds morning play

Never a bad day at RiverWinds. Today was no different. Friendly staff at every amenity (Pro shop, Snack bar, cart service). Just wish they’d get the Pro shop closer to the course.

As for getting a beverage and a meal afterwards, the restaurant at the end is perfect.

River views

The course was in great condition despite recent greens aerification. A very nice layout but the regular price greens fees were too high.

Aerated Greens

NOTE: Greens aerified and sanded on Aug. 21. Recommended 2nd week of September for fully recovering. ALSO, started informed me that they top dress the greens every Tuesday,. I have played the course twice and each time the greens were basically automatic 2 putt. Aerifying is necessary maintenance, but weekly top dressing is too bad. The green could be spectacular.

When this course is in ideal condition it could be a real gem. The layout and holes are solid. Wide open course, but penalty for missing fairways with long rough. They could reduce the rough throughout the course. Very difficult to find balls.

Good value with Golf Now Hot Deal. Otherwise, too pricey.

Solid Course with Golf Now deal. Sanded Greens

Greens had been sanded in the morning. Necessary maintenance but disappointing to not fully appreciate them.

Wide open course, though rewarded for fairways hit. Rough is rough.

Solid course close to philly with GN deal.

Course was in excellent shape problem was cart path only requirement. There was no reason for this fairways were not wet or puddled should have been allowed to cross at 90 degrees at least. We were told heavy rain the night before only puddles I saw were on paved surfaces.

Great course, mismanaged tee times

Always in great shape. Unfortunately was double booked for multiple tee times causing a wait at every hole. Started round around 430 and couldn’t finish because of the pace. Would’ve been nice if it were communicated ahead of time. For what i paid i can’t be too upset but starter was pretty lackadaisical about it all when questioned.

5+ Hour Round

The course was in excellent condition but the group 2 in front of us was incredibly slow. We teed off at 7:03 and didn't finish the round until after 12pm. The ranger would come by and watch them by not say anything to speed up the pace of play - whats the point of a ranger if he's not going to keep people moving? Finally on 18 as the slow group was finishing their round the ranger came over to us and said that the pace should pickup...too little too late as we only had one hole left and the entire course was now backed up.

Riverwinds is a great course but the tee times and pace are so poorly managed if you don't tee off in one of the first groups you'll easily have a 5+ hour round of golf.

Great course for women

This course is female-friendly, well maintained, and a good value. Note that the $30 fee was for 9 holes.

Jaws found a gem

Course is in great condition and is a great value. It’s well staffed with friendly people and in a very nice area. Back nine has many holes along the river which is beautiful. Wish they would cut back some of the vegetation so you could see more of the views but the course is a great layout. Competitive and difficult where it needs to be but scorable. Makes you play every shot in your bag and has a beautiful signature island type par 3 towards the end of your round. Would recommend and will go back

Slow

Played this course at 11am and they were insanely backed up. 2-3 foursomes waiting on each tee box. Apparently there were two outings that did not reserve enough tee times and they still let them fit their extra groups in that backed up the entire course. Bought my tee time online, you would think they would just not release tee times after the outings for an hour, but no, it was Terriblee. Overall the course is always in great condition other than their long, ball eating rough. In the end we did not finish the round, quit after 9, but they did give us a 9 hole rain check. Also played Saturday and it was a 5 hour and 10 minute round due to a slow group in front of us. They have clocks that are supposed to keep people on pace, but no one came to tell these people to speed up or move out of the way. I like this course, but I would never play this course again on the weekend or after 9am.
