River Marsh is a treat

Great course in excellent condition. I didn't even mind my three trips into the sand traps, they were so nice - sand felt like powder. Greens were a little fast, but we adjusted quickly. The couse is beautiful - the views and the wildlife (deer are so tame) make it a great experience, no matter how well you play. Unless you get a great deal through GolfNow, the greens fees are a little steep. Nevertheless, this is a very nice course to play when you want to treat yourself.

A nice challenge

Beautiful course with many challenging tee shots. Greens and fairways were in great condition - a couple of tee boxes were a little worn for this early in the season. Only real negative was the greens were a little slow for this type of course - which is challenging. For those golfers that don't have a lot of carry off the tee they have forward tee boxes that will make the course enjoyable.
Course has a ton of water so accurate shots are a must.
Second time I have played and will return again.

Great course

This is one of my favorite courses on the Eastern Shore. The staff is always wonderfully inviting, and the course was in great shape. The greens were lightning fast! It was a little slow at times, and a course of this quality and cost should have GPS systems in the carts.

Nice Course / Great Staff

Course was in excellent condition despite recent heavy rains. The traps were a little washed out but the grounds crew were working on them (thus only 4 stars for condition). Fairways and greens were all excellent.

Staff was very accommodating and extremely friendly.

excellent course ~ good conditions ~ well worth the 1 hour drive from O.C.

On a w/e that we played both lighthouse sound and baywood greens river marsh was equally or more enjoyable. golfnow price was great and although we didn't think the hour drive from oc was a wise choice we would do it again in a flash...all highway and no issues. the whole course played great but 17 & 18 were a stellar ending to the round. Fair amount of water....fast greens.....reasonably open layout. go experience it for yourself.....we'll return as well.

best deal for the $

A modern and well kept course. Huge greens,excellent putting surfaces, good bunker sand, wide fairways-only the roughs are a bit uneven. Some very challenging holes but all in all a good experience. I played it twice in one day and was charged only $22 fur the replay(cart inc.)

Great Course

I found a tee time for 29.00 on golf now and decided to try this course considering it normally costs 119.00 a round. I was very happy with the overall condition of the course and how maintained the greens and fairways were. The signature holes 17 and 18 are amazing and make a great ending to your round.

Beautiful Course

This won't be one of the most challenging courses you'll play, but it will be one offering one of the best views around. Many of the holes are on the Choptank River. When you're not looking at the serene water, you're looking at the vast number of deer that snack around many of the greens. While the approach shots to the greens aren't challenging, the speed and undulation of the greens will certainly shave some strokes off your final score. Very fast and challenging greens, especially earlier in the day before the greens have grown a bit. I'd love to sit all day and bet golfers that they can't make the green on the par 3 17th. Very challenging hole with a long shot over the shoal.

One thing else I'll mention. Even though this is a high-end resort, I was pleasantly surprised at the prices charged on the beverage cart. $2.50 for a domestic beer is very, very reasonable. Other prices for food and drink are inline, too.

If you've never played this course, you should.

Awesome course!

The conditions from tee boxes to greens were awesome. Unfortunately it was slightly cold and very windy when I played. However, I still thoroughly enjoyed my round. I can only imagine how great this course is going to be the next time I play on a warmer and less breeze day.

Excellent in every aspect

Beautiful course, excellent condition for post-winter, tremendous staff, and great value at Golf Now rates. Two hour drive from McLean, VA at 6:45 AM. Very worthwhile day if combined with some Choptank exploration or a 36 hole adventure. Tough to be a regular from VA, but if you have the time and inclination to travel….play River Marsh! If you have a golf course list - put it on.
