River Run Golf Course

It was a fun track and conditions were very good. They say it was a cart mandatory course but you could easily walk this one.

Fun course to play, offers challenges for an intermediate golfer, but they can be met. Very quiet area, pace moved along okay.

We played as a threesome. It was about 90 degrees and 90% humidity. Brutal conditions to play mid-day, but the price was right. $30 a person!!! To make matters worse, I guess a storm rolled through the night before and dumped a bunch of rain on the course so it was cart path only. Yes, that's exactly what I want to do......walk around trying to find my ball from path to fairway while I'm dripping with sweat. Thankfully a foursome let us play through around hole 5 and we basically had the course to ourselves. Played a little under 4 hours. I love the track. Oh, and range balls are free with the greens fees, so get there early and hit as many as you want. The front 9 is links style and the back 9 is tree lined. Greens were very slow!! That is my major complaint about the course. Other then that I love playing River Run.

Nice course but I was not overly impressed. The greens were painfully slow and after reading a few reviews, I guess that is the way they keep them at River Run. The layout is fun from the mounding to the bunkering (thankfully I didn't find one at day) and shots with water coming into play. The fairways were in very good shape. You are given a card with the hole layouts and distances to bunkers and water hazards which comes in handy because there is plenty of doglegs which driver is not needed. Not an overly long course. The front 9 is open and the back is tighter. They push a 4 hour round pace there. We had no one in front of us and a foursome a hole behind us going into the 12th hole and a ranger stopped us on the tee and asked us to pick our play up. That puzzled us because we finished our round in 3 hours and 45 minutes exactly. I got the round for a $29 hot deal on GolfNow on a Thursday at noon. I would play this course again at that rate but I don't think I would pay to much more than that.

All good! The course was a challenge with narrow fairways and length. Had a great time!

River Run is in my opinion the best course in the area for the money.

Worth the money when purchased on Golf Now.
Many greens looked as overplayed - need to be rolled - or other maintenance... Yes, would return. They never have enough golf balls on free driving range. Noticed this several times.

Not used to seeing this course in this kind of shape . Greens are really slow .

This was the first time our foursome had played the course and we all want to get back soon. Everyone was very friendly.

River Run was a pleasant surprise!

Well maintained course!

Great appetizers and friendly staff!

Fun layout a bit pricey. I enjoyed the course the staff was friendly The clubhouse is not fancy but gets the job done. I would play it again .

Overall, River Run was a great golf course with a fun, but playable layout. The only "complaint" i would have is that the greens were extremely slow, but the course was in great shape and provided a fun round of golf.

Always enjoy a round at Gary Player's River Run, at least 14 really interesting holes through the marshes, & meadows next to the St. Martins river. Tee to green excellent, greens consistent but a little slow, perhaps the downpour prior night did not allow them to cut. 5.5 hrs, due to cart path only, and a holiday packed course, overall enjoyable round.

Not too long but well designed to have you hit a broad assortment of clubs. Greens were a little slow but they were still healing from aeration. Pace of play got bogged down due to a group of senior golfers that did not play ready golf - oh well. Overall an enjoyable outing and worth the money.

Course was in VERY good condition. Very fair, greens ran true. EXCELLENT place to bring your son or daughter in the afternoon. Not a place with quick food service unless the grill/shack is open at the turn. Kind of a neighborhood club but very nice, friendly staff. Laid back. Let everyone play in a relaxed fashion. Much better condition than I recalled years ago when I played. My son & I got paired up & really enjoyed it! Give it a try!!

excellent value,good condition well run facility longer carry of water on par 3 15th

Course is in excellent condition. Some of the best fairways in the area. Staff was great showed up at the course on the wrong day, but they still accepted the great Golf Now rate.
Couldn't ha e asked for more

Hadn't played here in years,, RR has a nice layout. Today was extremely slow, 5 1/4+ hrs. ( not helped by heavy overnight rains resulting in cart paths only) Marshals on course, their job seemed to be to let us know the pace was slow! Greens just fair shape, appear to still be recovering from aeration a few weeks ago. Fairways in nice shape. Will play here again, just letting you know what present conditions are.

The course was in vey good condition. However, the pace of play was so slow, it made it unenjoyable. We waited 8-10 minutes on every tee box and then teed off and had to wait again to hit to the greens.
When approached by the ranger asking how it was going, we were told "it's resort golf, this is what happens". Wow, that's the response to ridiculous slow play? We have played this course about 4 times and each time, the pace has been slower. Probably will not return. Too bad because it is a nice layout in good condition.

Course was in great shape other than greens were a little slow and some aeration not completely healed but still putt reasonably true. Very friendly staff.
