River Run Golf Course

Visited River Run for the first time and read the reviews about the friendly staff. It was true and it makes all the difference in enjoying the course. Also read that the course challenged scratch golfers while being fair to golfers with higher handicaps. Played with a golfer whose handicap was 4. He hit from the back black tees, and I hit from the white. It was mostly a bogey day with only two pars, a handful of doubles, mostly bogies, but no triples. Hit over water each time needed to. For the scratch golfer, it was a par day with a few bogies and a few birdies and a few doubles - in short and overall, it felt as though we played evenly because the course challenged him and was fair for me. Will definitely return soon.

Course needs rangers to move play along, almost 6 hours to play on a Wednesday

Overall, river run is a quality golf course. That being said, white tee boxes were atrocious (granted that’s to be expected). Majority of fairways were in good shape, some have seen their better days. Greens were good for the most part, slower pace than practice green. Staff was friendly and helpful, I’d play here again for a cheaper price.

Overall conditions were okay, white tee boxes were beat up but that’s expected for the average golfer. Some fairways have seen their better days. Greens were solid, no specific issues. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Should be cheaper but course is located near the beach so it is what it is.

I felt some of the waist high grass was left to close to the fairways and holes

Overall great course, layouts were nice, pace of play was amazing. Food shop at the end of the 9th was accommodating

Played just after green aeration. Staff was great. Got off on time! And finished in 3 1/2 hours. Tee boxes and fairways in great shape. Greens still played well despite recent aeration. Definitely play here again!

Nice course, narrow fairways, driving range has plastic balls, greens were sanded. They sent us out early with no chance to putt or chip so struggled early. It's short so plays well for guys who don't drive the ball long.

Staff was more then helpful and got us out alot earlier then our scheduled tee time.
I would recommend anyone to play here!!!

My son-in-law and I booked a tee-off reservation on Golf Now for our planned golf game at River Run during our summer vacation, 120 miles from our homes. When we got there, the employees delayed our start time allegedly because a large group was scheduled to play ahead of us, even though our reservation didn’t interfere with the group’s tee-off times. The starter finally “fit us in,” and we played two holes when it started to pour rain.

We returned to the clubhouse in the pouring rain and asked for a refund. Initially the manager only offered us a rain check, even though we were vacationers who had come a long way from home to play and we couldn’t extend our stay.

When we insisted on a refund rather than a rain check for this reason, the manager rudely asked us, “Now, what are the chances that you will be back in exactly one year to play here again?” I avoided answering back in kind (“Why, never, if that’s the way you are going to treat us!”) and negotiated receiving a check for our $158 reservation from him in a “week or so.”

In the half-century that I have played golf, including games that were cut short by rain, I have never been treated so rudely by the golf course staff for the simple request of receiving a refund under such conditions. When the staff treats players high-handedly, they soon find out that they have no players.

I would not recommend River Run as a good course to play. There are plenty of better alternatives on the Maryland Eastern Shore.

First time playing and will definitely not be our last! Course was in great condition!

My son and I played River Run for the first time yesterday. What a great course. Challenging for a new golfer but we LOVED it! We found the course to be in great condition considering that it’s the beginning of August and there have been a lot of golfers playing this great course. We will definitely be back!

Crazy design. I bought afternoon round. I am glad I didn’t pay full price. Easily fixed around 80 ball marks on greens. Blue tees lined up to go direct into the woods Why? Halfway house closed at the turn. Best features were the bathrooms.
