Fun course good greens

Fairways and tees a bit ragged but very playable. Really appreciated that carts can go virtually anywhere (always respect just in front of greens). 98° heat. Slow group in front of us were oblivious - group in front of them ahead by 4 holes - we were at 10th tee with them and they didnt even consider inviting us to play through (2 hour rnd that should have been 90 minutes).

Greens not that fast but in great condition. Really friendly check-in. Good carts. Good range and putting green. Loved the $35 replay fee (includes cart). Very green course - lots of huge oaks, but pretty open course.

Wasted round of golf

The course was in terrible condition. Weeds all over the fairways. No direction signs for new players. No drinking water on the course. The course failed to mention greens satiation so putting was almost impossible.

I wasted my time and money

Crab Grass

I like this course and I like the value, but there was lots of crab grass on the course today. Some of the tee boxes had pretty long grass also. The greens were in decent shape though.

Slow greens

The is in good condition, the green also, looked beautiful. However, the greens were dreadfully slow. Other than that, a good day on the course.

Nice out of the way course

I've played River Oaks quite a few times over the last few years. The course is a very nice, no-frills, course out among the orchards along the river levee. The course has always been in good condition and the greens are always nice. The practice area is all grass, no mats. The only negative is there are no on-course water jugs, so bring your own.

I've always liked this course. If you look at it on a map, or just the scorecard yardages, you might think it's just a simple little course. It is not. It has plenty of tricks to it.

This course is well worth your money and time.

Oh, and the bloodymaries are absolutely the best around. ;)

Water

Great course and practice facilities. Why is there NO WATER on course. Come on put at least 1 at midpoints. It’s not like anyone is going to steal them. Evan lowly Cordova course has a marshall that will ask you for water at least twice a roun

Solid course for the price

This is an overall nice track for the money. Course was in good shape. It was about $10-15 cheaper for an early weekend round than similar courses in the Sacramento area. It requires a little bit of a drive, but its a good deal all around.
