Very friendly staff. Can do better with range balls. They only had 1 small bag with about 20 balls. The fairways are in great conditions and greens too. Greens are hard to read, sometimes fast and slow in others; and then there is the wind. The wind adds a high level of difficulty. However, an over all great experience.

Awesome day! Including Golfboards!

I had the pleasure of playing this course in May 2017. The Golfboards were relatively new to the course so they weren't super popular in terms of the number of people using them that I saw; however, I went for it and rented one! It was pretty awesome! Especially for someone playing solo or looking for a quick round.

In terms of the course, it's a beautiful layout with that has many tricks and turns. 17 and 18 are worth the cost of admission alone. Definitely make or break type holes. I will recommend this course as well as this resort to anyone.

The only aspect that was not great was the pace of play. Pace of play was pretty terrible honestly. At one point there was a 3 group wait on the 13th hole (we suspect a foursome jumped in front of us at the turn, even though we never stopped for lunch). Anyways, I was on vacation so it didn't bother me a bit. Awesome day at the course and I'll definitely be back.

For the 3rd of Apr the course was in decent shape.

The greens will be totally healed in another week. The greens were still about 9 and when healed will be there normal 10 to 12. Has a lot of bunkers and some are deep. Need to be accurate on tee shots.

Early season round, greens recently aerated and turf still in "winter mode", so can't comment in too much detail about general condition of the course. The pace of play was quick for a 10am tee time on a 75 degree Saturday at the end of March (18 holes in 3rs 30min). Some interesting hole layouts (17th in particular), but overall it's not a difficult course...if you are staying at the Hyatt, definitely recommend playing a round.

Great course, can't wait to go back

I This course was in great shape for the heavy rain we received and so close to winter. The greens rolled true. Fairways looked good (wet, but good) and the layout was very enjoyable. I look forward to coming back to play this course in the spring or summer.

Can't beat the view.

Great course and great views. Course was in good shape considering they had two days of rain prior to our tee time. As a GolfNow Hot Deal I was extremely happy with the round.

Beautiful course

Found the course to be in good shape and greens were in good condition not fast or slow. Did not like the fact that you had to carry your clubs down about 20 steps to the golf cart. Also having drinking water on the course would of been nice. Would definitely play here again. Eighteenth hole is beautiful.

Worth the ride

My wife and I drove over two hours so I could play this course because of the reviews i have read about it. Note: the only reason I am not giving the conditions five stars is because I played on Presidents day weekend and conditions are never perfect then. However, the staff was perfect in every way. I got there very early for my tee time and they were able to send me out in front of a large group. Eventually I ended up joining with guys from this group and it made the experience that much better. I would love to play the course in peak season and not have to pay peak price. Keep up the great work.

Nice winter golf

Friendly staff from bag attendant, golf shop to bar attendant. Driving range is nicely maintained, swing on nicely mown grass, no mats here. Decent shape for winter golf. Greens are on the slow side but receptive to approach shots. Bunkers have nice fine white sand.

Fairways are generous and the greens are large. Plays fairly easy. There are some nice views of the harbor and wildlife and few homes to spoil the view. 17th hole is an intimidating carry over the river and the 18th is lined by the bay on the left with the Hyatt Hotel framing the green.

If you're a pilot, Cambridge-Dorchester Airport KCGE is just 2 miles a way.

River Marsh Cambridge Maryland

I thought the course was in great shape for this time year December 27th 2016. The staff were extremely friendly and Dave the starter it was a great guy to talk to give her some observations about the course that came in handy. I've been waiting five years to play that course it wasn't a disappointment hole number 17 great hole.

Beautiful With Bunkers Everywhere

Front nine beautiful, 10 to 15 average, 16, 17, 18 excellent. Bunkers everywhere and all perfectly raked and maintained. My ball found a lot of them especially off drives. Very generous fairways for drives under 200 from white. Staff suggested White tees regardless of level at start and that was good advice. Fairways soft on day we played so course played long with not much roll. Some invasive unmowed crab grass in middle of back nine fairways. Many tee boxes showed a lot of play and marker locations need to be moved around more often. Ladies tees well forward making play easier. Overall a beautiful course especially the front nine, but 10 to 15 fairways and average tee boxes pull it out of the top tier where I play.

Great lay out

This course is laid out very well, great sight lines, and you rarely see other holes from the hole your playing. The course was very wet the day I played but was in good shape none the less. I played by myself and played through one group so pace of play was great. Great finishing holes!
