Hidden Gem, Great Value

River Oaks is in nice shape, especially given that it’s a smaller operation. There are some unique holes on the back that make this a fun place to play….a good match play set up for sure.

First Time Playing

Not bad at all

First time playing here. 9 am tee time . If your hungry in the am ..no luck just coffee. Grass range : a plus. 2nd hole is by a small ditch... filled with mosquitoes so wear your bug spray! I got eaten up within seconds. Fairways are in good condition and greens too.

Clapping

Have played here 3-4 times in the last year and have enjoyed the overall experience every time. I am impressed with how well they keep up the course with a pretty lean staff. Friendly staff and gotta give it up to the senora who makes the breakfast burritos! She also does the bar. Course is not perfect but compared to others with larger staffs they are awesome. Greens are in great shape with just a few problem areas which were minimal. Bravo

Air freshener

The course and staff are very nice; however the bathrooms smell so bad it takes your breath away . If you are going to charge 25$ for rental clubs they should at least be new with in the last 3/5 years. The grips were falling apart they had not been cleaned and they are probably 10-15 years old.

Friendly round

I’ve always enjoyed this course back to it’s Rio la Paz days. The course was a little damp, I’m sure because of the recent heat we’ve had. Greens were a little shaggy but rolled true.

I played with 2 members and they were a blast. Giving the where to aim & backup stories like guys that have played together a lot.

We played in a little over 3 hours with no one in front of us and no one on our tail.

Good Times

The course was in great shape. The greens were rolling true and medium speed, but they were a little too soft. The pace of play was great only 2.5 hours for 18 holes. Tee boxes were not level in spots. Overall, I had a great time.

It was a beautiful day for golf.

Yes, it was a beautiful day for golf.

A little soggy and a few places, but did not affect the overall play.

A good time for the four of us! Roo

Nice Greens

If you are like me, I really like greens that are in good condition more than anything else. The greens at River Oaks are a little slow, but the putt nice and true. Fun course to play. Give it a try.
