Ron Jaworski's RiverWinds Golf & Tennis Club
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

View of center city skyline from 16th tee Photo submitted by Ktm5000 on 04/15/2013
great layout
the conditions were good, views of the city are great. golfNow prices were fair, regular rack rates might be a little steep.
Nice course, some great views
Course was a little wet from rain, balls plugged and made the rough very heavy. Some very nice holes on the course, and can play long when the wind gets going.
17 is a nice par 3 hitting out into the river and the high reeds throughout the course is a nice touch. Nothing overly difficult, but not an easy course either.
The course was in the best shape of any in the area
The course was in great shape. The pace of play was very good, did not have to wait much at all between shots. The only disappointment I had was the lack of a driving range on such a big property.
Nice course but round took too long
Very slow play. Round took well over 5 hours. Very thick rough contributed to slow play.
Very nice
You will like the course. The place doesn't look like much when you pull in, but it's a well maintained fun play. You'll like it, but it can be overpriced so pay attention. Even if you end paying full boat, oh we'll, you will still have fun on a course with a bunch of interesting and different fair holes.
The course overall is beautiful
Loved playing the course. Challenging but also open at the same time. It's all about shot placement. Greens were great and rolled true. Lastly the 17th hole was my favorite! Good luck!!!!
Slow Play. Tee times too frequent
I live close to this course and I love the layout. It is not an easy course. The management insists on spacing tee times every 9 minutes. The man loading the clubs on the cart says be prepared for a slow day. Why? He tells me "because we have 260 players out there". The starter at the 1st tee says we are 2.5 hours per nine. The course is too difficult for that spacing. We played the first 4 holes in 1 hour (waiting on every shot). Got to the 5th tee and there was a group in the fairway and one waiting on the tee. I understand that they need to make money, but I will not play there if it is consistently 5+.
Fun Set Up and Location
The course was fun to play. The description on the website made it seem better than it is. No driving range!! Just a net to shoot into off matts which isn't that bad of a deal because it's free and you shoot as many as you want. Nice mini chipping green and good size putting green but no holes just pins. The finishing holes are the best on the course and the course is in great condition. Defiantly worth a try.
Great Course Shape on Beautiful Day
Course condition was in great shape. If most challenging in that course is wind due to different direction depend on each holes. Rough can get you wrist injury if you off fairway and greedy for distance recovery shot to green. Hole No. 16,17,18 is signature holes in that course. Overall fun playing.. would play again.
plush grass everywhere and well maintained.
I am a member at Scotland run and cancelled my tee time there to play river winds. Very wise choice.
a great option
Love the course and the views. Challenging but also friendly...gives you risk reward decisions. Rangers would show up but say nothing. Course was playing slow. Greens were in great shape, running fast. They need more convenient food and alcohol options. Well definitely be back.
Go Play
Great course, nice view on the back 9. The Riverwinds restruant is also a great place to eat.
very nice course greens fast ,fairways real good condition ,to me it seemed like it played long(5hrs)
back nine par 3 120 yrd downhill over looking thr city ,surrounded by water
Beautiful but slow
Great playing course, well maintained. Only complaint is the pace of play. We were a foursome and it took us more than 5 hours for a 2pm tee time.
Wonderful Track
We were very pleasantly surprised and will return.
Nice fairways and greens, great views of the Delaware River and Philly
I played here once last year and was impressed. I had to play here again. Considering the GolfNow rate, it's the best value for the buck in South Jersey. The fairways and greens are in great shape, even after one of the worst winters on record. The traps need some work, but overall they weren't that bad. One of my new favorite courses that plays 6,800+ yards from the blues.
Great Course
This is a really great course. definitely the best in the area.
Difficult yet fair, wonderful condition
The fairway turf was in excellent condition, especially considering time of yr and few frosts. Greens are lightning fast, but prefer that. Difficult for avg golfer but some good opp for low scores early in rd.
Good Course, VERY tough in wind!
played off the tips in 25-30mph wind and wish i moved up. course was in great shape however the bunkers could've used some more sand versus stones/pebbles. greens were very quick and receptive. will have to play again once it's warmer (was hovering around 45*F not including wind chill).
great shape today
Riverwinds is in great shape right now, no goose droppings anywhere, greens were fast, nice sand-traps which I experienced firsthand, fairways and tees good shape
