The River Golf Club

Twelve golfers played River Club on a buddy trip to North Augusta. We had lunch in the grill before an afternoon round on the course. The course was in great condition The greens were excellent. We look forward to playing River Club again in the future.

Something unnoticed after my prior review. There was a twosome also walking in front of me who didn’t give me the time of day. A foursome in front of them had several holes open ahead. If there was a pace of play problem, staff should’ve concentrated on that foursome. I saw no evidence of that. I had a decent front but I couldn’t get the pro shop shenanigans out of my head on the back and it spoiled my round.

Good course with great conditions and layout. Greens are superb and bunker sand is groomed nicely. However they put me out as a single on a Sunday morning which I thought was odd. Turns out the starter goofed. Pro shop guy raced out the the 8th hole to tell me this. Wound up blocking my tee shot into the trees. Paid $59 to walk 18 which is really high. You can get a similar golf experience at Forest Hills or Mount Vintage for mid $40s on GolfNow. and you get the cart.

Played The River on New Years Day to bring in the New Year. Course was not crowded, pace of play was good. Staff brought a cart to my car when I pulled in. Guy in the Pro shop was friendly. Course is in great shape for this time of year. I will say that the greens are super fast, but all in all a great round. I have played here several times and will be back for more.

I played The River Course on an outing of 20 guys. When you drive into the parking lot you immediately realize the beauty surrounding you. The clubhouse is huge and stately. But the course is the real show stopper. The greens are fast but true. Everywhere you look is water. It is in your site, but not so much that it affects the way you play. The fairways were great for any time, but super for mid-October. Everyone in my group really loved the layout and the atmosphere at the club. The biggest question I hear, is when are we going back. Cant; wait myself.

The greens were in great shape - rolled true, and were really fast. Fairways and tee boxes were also in really good condition. They were working on repairing a few green-side bunkers, but the others were all difficult but in good condition.

Chris, in the pro shop, was great to work with as well!

3rd time playing the River. Course is in great shape. Greens are fast. Price is a little high compared to some of the other courses around, but not a show stopper. Good course in our rotation.

Second time playing this course and I really enjoyed it. Course is open, fairways are nicely groomed and greens were a little slow. Lots of water on this course. Will definitely be playing here again.

Was very wet after the huge rainfall day before. Greens rolled true and quick. Would like to see in a few weeks.

Played day before attending Masters, so had to pay higher price for playing a local course, which I understand but fee was a bit higher than the experience warranted. Paid $175 per head, which did include lunch. Course in Ok shape, not spectacular. We often forget there is a lot of dormant grass this time of year, which to Northerners looks like dead grass. Not a lot of memorable holes. Staff was accommodating insofar as they let us go off earlier than planned so we could get ahead of some groups getting ready to tee off. So we did play fairly quickly. Not a negative experience, and the practice area was a solid one, but I just felt a bit taken advantage of with the price when all was said and done.

We stay at the cottages, and have played here for many years. The course is always in the best condition, for winter, than any course in the area except the obvious one. They overseed the tees, greens and fairways so the playing surfaces are exceptional, and the greens are as fast as any around.

The course is mostly flat with many elevated greens. The layout winds around a central lake, with plenty of gators, but even away from the lake water and wetlands lurk. The property was an old rail yard, and tracks and trestles dot the area.

The greens are some of the toughest to putt, hard to read, large fast with many undulations, avoid 3 putts and you are having a good day.

The cottages are a great way to stay and play, and the staff will set up tee times at other area courses and include in your package.

The River Club never disappoints. This course is in excellent condition year round. Staff were very helpful and make your visit easy, on top of that course is great value for money. Overall a great experience each time I visit.

I take a semi annual vacation to the area to play with a seniors group nearby and on the off day I played this course. The fairways were scalped for over seeding and some spots were still brown on the back 9. the front was very nice. Am planning to go back next Feb and will play on the off day.

Great golf course in very good condition (the front nine fairways were shaved down in preparation for over-seeding and getting ready for the winter). I have played the course before and the course is always in great condition.
- The bermuda grass greens are in fantastic condition. They are smooth, fast, roll true and have very few ball marks.There are lots of undulations and subtle slopes on the greens which make them challenging.
- The rough is thick and lush and challenging to escape due to the thickness great condition of the rough
- You will not regret playing The River golf course. It is a great track in great condition.

Course is in excellent condition. Fully green, excellent fairways and greens. Friendly staff and nice pace of play. Played a 4 hour 10 min round on Saturday morning with a packed course.

I have lived in the area for two years. This course is the best maintained; of all the courses I have played. Greens were faster than I remembered; from the first time I played here. Staff was very courteous and accommodating. No problems.

Me and my son played here Saturday and the course was amazing. From tee to green the conditions were great, the greens were absolutely perfect and fast The carts have GPS which is a big help. And it only took us 3:15.to play 18 holes.we will definitely be going back as soon as possible.

Wonderful golf course in immaculate condition. Staff needs customer service training. Gentleman at counter in the clubhouse was downright belligerent. Actually tracked us down on the course in the midst of our round to scold one of us for making a mistake in booking a tee time online. Woman at the snack bar appeared to really hate her job......no smiles, no "thank you" from anyone. If I'm dropping that kind of money to play a game I want it to be fun...at least pleasant. I won't go out of my way to play there again any time soon.

Definitely a 5 star course greens, fairway, tough, bunkers all in great condition. Lots of challenges no matter which tee box you choose.

Really enjoyed our day at this course. The greens were fast and the fairways and bunkers were well kept. Would definitely play it again!
