Arthur Hills designed the 27 holes at River Strand Golf & Country Club in Bradenton. The holes are intertwined with a series of waterways, incorporating water on almost every hole. It is by far the most predominant feature of the landscape and inspired the names for the nines that the holes are divided into: the Estuary, Tributary, and Sanctuary. The golf courses all provide a different set of challenges, despite sharing the same aquatic landscape. Whether you play one or all of them, no matter what skill level you will find a favorite. The Tributary Course is the shortest and most player friendly, but there are still some challenges in store. Located between Tampa and Sarasota, River Strand makes a nice getaway but it is also popular with locals.

I Recommend This Course
One of the best courses in this area
There are 27 holes at River Strand and all are great test of golf. The greens are very fast with a lot of bunkers around the greens. Got a great deal on Golfnow but the tee off was at 2:12 pm so didn't think would be able to play all 18. But was able to finish even though was very slow on back nine. A bucket list golf course!!!
