River Ridge Golf Club - The Vineyard Course

I would not recommend this course right now. It is in a horrible condition. Normally I love playing Victoria Lakes, but the whole course needs attention.

The greens are pretty ragged on the Lakes course

Also the fairway grass is pretty brown. But I love the layout. Needs water!

RR hasn't been in really great shape in years, but right now it's worse than usual. I played Lakes and they haven't watered fairways in many weeks, so a LOT of dead grass. Hitting off it isn't so bad. Kind of like links-style, but disappointing. Supposedly something went wrong with sprinkler system and they are repairing it. This place has recycled water so no excuse not to use it. Both courses are challenging layouts and pretty nice designs. The wind can be a bummer when up on the hill for either 18, but once off the hill holes it calms down. The greens are alive and watered, but in pretty poor condition. The course is playable if you get a good price, but be prepared for rough conditions.

Very long and challenging for first time on this tee. Some double dog legs and a few other things. Overall very fun and will be back for more.

Love this course but yesterday was not great. Seems there’s not much up keep of the course. The greens are un-puttable.

On the Lakes course, fairways were golden brown with dirt. They are not maintaining course. Several greens were either spongy or eaten by fungi -particularly 9th hole. Very disappointing

Grass dead on all fairways of the Lakes with some fungus infestation on holes 9 and 10 saw one sprinkler going. A huge leaking huge pumping station next the sister servants of Mary. Dead fish in Lake on between holes 11 and 12. With staff skimmers pulled no our fish. Smell was very bad (bad septic tank) around all of the lakes. Noticed very tall dry weeds between holes 10 and 11 only ten or twelve feet from homes was definitely a fire hazard. The sand traps are like dirt traps and in fact hit a rock while taking a shot. Noticed club face was scratched by rock. It came out funny and saw scratch when I looked it.

I do t think you will continue to get the price at this rate with conditions like this.

Played both courses plenty of times lots of times and loved it. This needs to be corrected

Course was really dried out.

Made for longer drives but hard pan on some fairways.

Greens were slow but fair.

Temp was perfect 70, drive 25 miles east it is over 100.

Always enjoy the winds off the ocean in the afternoon

I have played a couple of times this course and overall it was great. However this last time it was evident that the course needs better maintenance. The greens were in really bad shape.

I have been playing River Ridge courses for 30 years and we are currently very disappointed in the condition of the golf course. The greens are extremely slow and poorly manicured. The holes are not even sharply cut. The surface of the greens is very bumpy the ball rolls inconsistently. The face of play has been horrible the last three or four times playing there. I love this property the people are nice but they need to give back a lot more to this wonderful golf property!

I enjoy Victoria Lakes more than Vineyard.

Challenging enough to get your money's worth, but not too difficult that you're frustrated.
