Not in good shape
Tee boxes in disrepair.
Fairways not good either.
Dirt in the bunkers, no sand.
If you just want to hit a few balls ok, but choose another course if you desire a good golfing experience.
Loved the Staff
Had a great time! Staff was super friendly. Will be back this Friday!
Excellent for quick 9
First time playing and ended up doing 18. Well worth the money and nearly zero obstacles. Will play again and again. Highly recommended
River Oaks looks good
Played april 23 and as you know there is some water in spots on the course but not in the fairways. The greens maintained nice over the winter and look great. The putts are rolling slower than normal because the greens are wet but the ball checks up really good also. The 12th hole is forever closed because Cook County won’t fix the bridge so the 14th par 3 is there to stay. I will say the 14th hole looks good and is an actual green (if you played in the past you know what I mean lol). Can’t wait to come back when the course dries out over the next month. I shot an 80 w/1 birdie and 2 double bogeys
This course is poorly maintained.
The smell of raw sewage was prevalent throughout the course. I wouldn’t play this course again for free.
Course Has Greatly Improved
I played River Oaks today for the first time since last summer. All I can say is wow. If you haven't played there recently you're missing out. The course conditions were much improved since last year. It's a hidden gem and I will be back again soon.
Great Potential
Great course layout, has potential to be one of the best in the area.
Cons:
-lots of broken carts make for occasional shortage
-maintenance could be better, one hole on the back 9 is in embarrassingly poor condition.
