Ron Jaworski’s Riverwinds Golf & Tennis Club is situated along a scenic stretch of grassland between the banks of the Woodbury Creek and the deep harbor marina on the Delaware River. Its location gives it the feel of traditional seaside links courses found in Scotland and Ireland, which is further enforced by the sod-wall bunkers that lurk near the greens. The layout features plenty of water and incorporates the surrounding wetlands as well. One unique feature of the golf course is that the routing winds across a mile-long twisting burn, creating a visually interesting setting. Riverwinds begins with a gentle, mostly flat front nine but the mounding becomes more aggressive as you move onto the back. All of the holes face a different direction, which means you’ll most likely be using all the clubs in your bag to tackle the crosswinds and rugged terrain.

Good Round For Me

Signed up as a solo, but staff paired me with a twosome. Staff was very professional and friendly in making the match. Twosome were great guys and skill levels were similar. Great pace of play, despite our late tee time and fact that course started 15 minutes late in the morning. Staff was surprised, but happy that we and two other groups behind us got in all 18, arriving back to starting point after sundown.

I’ve played this course 4 times this year, and I have only myself to blame for bad hits, because it wasn’t due to course conditions. Always great lyes, both on fairways and rough. I’ll be back for sure.

Good but not for that money

The course has a nice layout. Conditions are fair. Used to love palying this course and then Ron J has gone mad. The greens fee for this course just can not be justified. Yes, being in the vicinity of Philly, there are not that many decent tracks offered to public but this course can not have its country club price tag. $80 give or take on the weekends may be fair. NOT $135!

Great course near Philadelphia

Riverwinds is a great public course near Philadelphia. It is a long course along the Delaware River. The club house is a bit hard to find (it's a yellow building near the outdoor hockey rink), but the staff is very nice. I'd definitely play there again!

Greens worst I seen them at this course!

Love Riverwinds! Layout is great and also usually enjoy playing it the few times I get a year. To be honest the course conditions weren’t ideal. Air Rated I believe 2 weeks ago and you could really tell. Some tee boxes were chewed up and greens were bumpy and hairy.

I usually like this course

Not only was the GolfNow price $25 more than their webpage price, $110 vs $85, but the greens were recently aerated, and they still overcharged us. Might be my last time playing there. 👎👎

Great course but….

Was extremely disappointed that the choose to do cart path only for what turned out to be our first 10 holes. Really slowed okay for what appeared to be no reason. And at $135 for a round, it’s way overpriced for what it offers. Great golf course but no other amenities
