River Plantation Golf Club

Several other public courses in the Montgomery County area worth going to. This is not one of them. Played first of May and the greens looked like a crater and bunkers were full of water. Can't tell between the fairway, rough, and green. Grass is all the same cut. Keep driving north, and visit Westfork or Panorama. They offer better rates and even offer a 9 hole rate. RP will charge you full 18 plus a observation fee if you have someone riding in the cart with you. I.e. wife, girlfriend, or child. Staff is not friendly as well.

Course is fun and decently priced the issue is they’re not very good at managing tee times there’s two nines and instead of splitting people up they have everyone tee off 1 and it causes a traffic jam. Our tee time was at 1:45 and it’s 3:00pm and we’re through 3 holes. It would be more efficient to have people tee off on 10 as well as 1 so there’s not 8 carts waiting on each hole. And then on top of that a random twosome jumped out in front of us absolutely insane. Took 2hours and 47min to play 9.

6/19/25 8am tee time, started on hole 10 bc they were grinding trees down. Didn’t expect them to follow up half our holes so the loud noise was much appreciated. Then on 2 we were playing our approach shots and the guy just comes and cuts a new hole mid swing like what?! Overall 1-3/9-11 holes look great but rest of the course the fairways need cut and greens look better then the past no sand. Bunkers aren’t playable and tee boxes decent. If the price was $30-40 I would come back but $50-60 bucks I’ll go elsewhere. It’s getting better but still needs work. Maybe next time I’ll ask if they would be grinding down trees during our tee times.

I really enjoyed the course layout. The holes were not bunched up together, going head to toe. However, it does appear that they are letting the quality slide. Greens had significant rot problems that reasonable solutions could be made. Price was good. Plenty of parking. Electric carts. Driving range not included in green fee. Challenging for me. Some houses had some serious damage from misadventure balls.

The only good thing about this course is the clubhouse. And that’s still nothing special. Was forewarned about the green conditions, but still was not expecting them to be as bad as they were. Fairways were OK and tee boxes weren’t anything special either. Playing as a foursome we were approached early in the round by the Marshall to allow another foursome of members to jump ahead of us. Later in the round we were approached again by the Marshall telling us to pick up the pace of play. We played a four hour round of golf and that’s with letting one foursome group and a twosome group jump ahead of us along with the slow cart girls that also don’t sell liquor on the course which is something I’ve never heard of before.
