It was ok
The course itself is good. I was surprised when I showed up for my tee time to find that everything was a shotgun start. I would have not played there had I known this. I booked through golf now, and there was no mention of this.
Great price
For the price, you can't beat this course! It provides plenty of challenge for a high handicapper, and you can use driver off the tee on nearly half the holes. I lost my ball in the leaves a few times, but at this time of year that's to be expected. We got held up a few times by a couple of slow groups in front of us but overall a great course!
Good for family fun
Run River is a nice course for family fun and players newer to the game. The course was marked properly (very wet when I played), easy to navigate and offered challenges along with scoring opportunities. Expectation should be a standard municipal course. If you’re looking for a greater experience, look for other options. If you wanna turn 9 or 18 quick on a Tuesday night w your guy/gal for $30, Rum River works.
Opportunities for improvement - Overall, the course could use a refreshed attitude to improve ambiance. Staff enthusiasm was fairly low, along with heavy on course ranger presence makes a player feel unwelcomed and rushed.
The course is fine and meets municipal expectation. But due to to the ambiance and staff interaction, I would not recommend Rum River.
Super busy
The course was overal in great condition. The greens had somw divots that other players didnt fix. The pace of play was terrible. 3hrs to do 10 holes before the group ahead of us let us play through. We didnt have a cart till 5 min after our tee time. Im assuming there was a tournament on in the morning. Beverages was cold. This is a nock on players not the course please clean your crap out of the cart you shouldnt make the starter clean your cart after use.
Great Value. Pace of Play could improve
Had a small group doing a scramble ahead of us which slowed the pace to a crawl. Perhaps allow more time after events to speed up the pace for non-event golfers.
Reconsider cart policy
I've been a loyal customer for 25 years at Rum River and this last tee time may be the last. 7:30 am tee time and I made a reservation as a single. There where at least 30 carts available and the starter asked me to share a cart with the threesome I got paired with, smh. "We run out of carts" he stated. Not the players problem!! Sounds like good old American greed again. They are always booked solid and make money hand over fist, but cannot invest in a few more carts??
Fun paced Memorial weekend round
First time out with honey to Rum River GC on a late Sunday morning. Paired with another twosome and we all got along. What a concept..! Course was in great shape considering all the rain we’ve had the last few weeks. We also all enjoyed an appetizer and cold beverage on patio afterwards. GolfNow hot deal pricing was a plus, but we’ll be back with or without next time, soon:)
Very good Value
This was the 1st time playing this course for my buddy and I and both enjoyed the round. Staff was very pleasant and welcoming when we arrived. The course layout was challenging as several driving holes with narrow landing areas created difficulties and club selection important. The only reason I wasn't able to give 5 stars on condition of course was due to several tee boxes were hard to find a level spot, and hole 11 is under repair. The only other negative was that it was sloppy wet due to all the rains we have had so not necessarily something they could control
Otherwise very pleased with the course and the value is great
