River Wilderness

It was a beautiful sunny day for golf but I played horribly. I can’t blame the course as it was much improved from the last two times I played there. The grass at Tees, greens and fairways was all better cared for than previously. It’s a good layout and I recommend it.

Very Nice Course / Few Amenities

We truly enjoyed our 18 holes of golf.
Pro shop temporarily closed. Apparently the kid had to go somewhere and locked it up.
Then after golf another disappointment came when we finished at 3:00 and found we could not eat I’m the dining room. When I called they said the dining room is opened on Saturdays until 5 and Sundays I until 6. But unfortunately for us, they closed yesterday at 3:00. Very poor situation. But very nice golf course.

Little Gem

Great course with changing and challenging layout. Very friendly staff.
For mid summer course was in great condition, GPS in carts was very helpful for s first timer.
Nice surroundings in a gated community.

Nees Work

The course could be a good one, but the greens, tees, and fairways need work.

playing in a cow pasture

simple review - like playing in a cow pasture!

Rack rate is $70 a round, thank you Golf Now for a $20 discount. With that said, $20 was WAY too much considering the condition of this course.

Tee boxes and fairways had a LOT of bare spots. Greens look like they had fungus all over them.

Would NOT recommend and will NOT go back - ever!

NOT WORTH THE MONEY

Booked as Hot Deal on Golf Now for $50 versus regular rate of $70. Thought this might be a deal but nope!!
Tee boxes in terrible condition, many bare spots all over the course. Had the look and feel of a $20 muni, cattle field. Definitely not going back!

This course is awful

This is hands downs the worst course I have ever played. The tee boxes & greens were in the worst condition I have ever seen. Do not play this course right now. I will be taking further action to get my 60$ back.
