Well maintained golf course

Very nice flat course situated out in the country, surrounded by walnut tree groves. Great course for less accurate players. Still have shot after wayward drives. Would definitely play it again.

Great Day

Amazing practice facilities. Sand trap practice area along with driving range and putting green.

Was going to hit my shag balls but probable 80 golf balls left on practice area

My only complaint is there is no water on course or drink cart. Stock up on a hot day

Diamond in the farmland

Not expecting much off a long dusty highway but was pleasantly surprised by the lush fairways, well manicured greens and quick pace. Greens were a little slow but well maintained. Fellow golfers were courteous and respectful. Staff were quick and efficient. Highly recommend, keep up the good work River Oaks!

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!
