River Run Golf Course

About
River Run Golf Club in Ocean City is just minutes away from the beach. The golf course has different front and back nines that make for an interesting round. This Gary Player design starts out across a wide-open landscape before moving on to more tree-lined terrain on the backside. The tighter back nine is tougher than the first nine but overall it's an approachable golf course. The player-friendly layout is gentle enough for beginners with medium-sized greens that aren't especially difficult and generous fairways that offer plenty of room. There is modest bunkering along the greens and fairways and a few lakes and some marshland come into play as well. While River Run Golf Club may not be the most formidable test, the course provides just enough of a challenge for scratch golfers.

6th "Green" Photo submitted by DrOldSchool on 08/15/2018
Course was not in good condition. Staff was friendly, however; for the money the course conditions were nowhere near worth it. Would not recommend.
Know in advance
For a 125$ round you should know there is no range (well unless you consider hitting foam balls a range). Also there is no alcohol or food sold at course and no water to be found on course. Staff was friendly cart girl was friendly but would of been nice to know these things prior to arriving.
Beautiful layout. Greens were ok. Some rough spots. Tee box’s we’re a little rough.
Course is quality but upkeep was not.
I love the course.and have played there several times. I don't like being dishonest so I will tell it how I saw it. Greens were bad. Not sure if it was due winter or other weather conditions but a lot of the greens were in poor condition. The rest of the course looked good. Fairways and rough were nice and playable. This is generally not the case for River Run so I'm going to attribute the greens roughness due to weather and othe conditions.
Good course layout
Always enjoy playing River Run. Greens recently airiated and putts still rolled well . Pro shop pleasent and accommodating.
Friendly staff good value for the money
Liked most everything about the course. The one exception was very long walks between 10-11 and 14-15. Felt like a mile.
Most holes reachable from current White tees even for average golfers on 4s and 5s.
Course Needs Some Maintenance
Lots of leaves everywhere and standing water in traps and on fairways.
River Run Review
Couuse was OK for this time of year but leaves were everywhere. On greens, fairways, rouge, etc. almost impossible to find your ball and some greens were unputtable. Why not have a leave blower? Not worth the money paid.
OC Golf
Good design. Short holes have some tricky white and long holes are challenging.
Always fun to play there.
