Nice course but pace matters

It was a nice day and the course was in very good condition. But, allow a walking fivesome really slow the pace of play and was on the disruptive side.

Terrific Time

The pro shop staff was extremely accomodating. My buddy and I happened to run in to an old friend that we had not seen for a few years. The pro managed to get us joined up with our friend's twosome. It is grately appreciated by all of us.

2nd Time is the Charm!!!

5 Years later my wife and I, on a whim, decided to take the short trip to revisit River Oaks GC...What a pleasant surprise! Perfect weather, well-maintained fairways, and the greens were in excellent shape - slow due to late afternoon blooming - but in excellent condition. Highly recommend this little gem by the Sacrament River for those looking for great value, a solid pace of play, and a course that is well-maintained!

Well kept

Great course for the price. Well kept. They just got new carts. The only thing I would change is to have a phone number, to the grill, on the 9th tee so you could call in an order. Speed up play a bit.

Good course, needs some TLC

Fairways were not mowed down, grass was too tall in some fairways. Rough was thick, which is understandable. Greens were running ok, considering that they were not cut shorter.

Overall decent course, challenging layout.

Pace of play

My friends and I love playing at River Oaks but the pace of play there is awful. We would love to see a little more time before tee off or enforcing a faster pace

Course only half open

When we were checking in, we were informed the front 9 was closed to carts. Since they didn’t have enough pull carts for our group, we had to play the back 9 twice.

If we had known prior to the day, we could have arranged to bring our own pull carts.

The back 9 was in great shape.

The course was in good condition for all the rain we’ve had over the last month. As to be expected there were some wet areas, but no standing water!!! The greens were in excellent condition soft, but rolled true!! The staff is always very friendly and helpful!!!
