Be ethical, close the course when it isnt suitable

Played just before xmas. Heavy rain the day before turned the course into a swamp. The ethical thing to do would have been to close the course and not take money from people. Unfortunately the decision taken was to keep the course open, take a full green fee and not allow buggies off the cart path. This meant play was tortuosly slow and took place in a swamp...

Best Course in SW Florida on Golfnow

Any chance that i can play here at a reasonable price, i am on it .It is a real First Class Country Club. Every aspect to a great golf day, is attended to.The bag man even knows your name, after a few round their and makes you feel like a member. Get there early, if it is a shot gun start to hit a few warm up balls, as it get crowded. Great practice facilities to work on all aspects of you game.

Faboulous Coiurse

Probably the best course around the Port Charlotte to Venice area,that is my feeling about Riverwood.

Good value if you get Golf Now deals otherwise expensive.

Riverwood Golf Club. North Port, FL

Live in Naples and visited friends that came down for some winter reprieve in Clearwater. BookEd this course for our way home back to Naples. Excellent choice. Price was very reasonable. Staff in the pro shop and out were very courteous and friendly. T-Times we’re spaced beautifully. Never felt rushed and play was smooth. Gorgeous course and highly recommend. Bring your “A” game!! Lots of fun!
