River Oaks Golf Club stretches across more than 800 scenic acres along the Intracoastal Waterway. The Course begins with the shortest of the three nines and finishes with the longest. The final hole on the front nine presents one of the most interesting risk-reward opportunities on the golf course. You can aim for the right bunker for an open shot at the green or try a long drive down the left side for a short approach. River Oaks Golf Clubs' Otter nine has several challenges in store including mounding, strategically placed bunkers, and tricky water hazards.

River Oaks

The only change I would suggest is tee change. Difference between white tees and next tees up are roughly 1000 yards. Move whites up a little and other tees back a little so gap is around 500 yards between the two tees. Whites are a little long for us 70 plus boys and next tees up to short.

It was good value for the money.
