Course Etiquette

Repairing Ball Marks

Replacing ball marks is very important. Equally important is doing it correctly. The first step in repairing ball marks is to take your ball mark repair tool and insert the prongs into the turf at the edge of the depression. The second step is to push the edge of the ball mark toward the center, using your ball mark repair tool in a “gentle twisting motion”. The last step is to gently tap down the repaired ball mark with your putter to smooth the putting surface.

Filling Divots

After you have taken a divot during play you must fill your divot with the mix provided in the divot mix box attached to your golf cart. Use enough divot mix to fill the divot and then use your foot to smooth over and tamp down the mix. If you are walking while you play and take a divot we ask that you replace your divot and tap down the replaced turf.

Raking Bunkers

After you have played your shot from the bunker you must rake the area where your club made contact with the sand , and your footprints. Pull the tines of the rake toward you as you begin moving toward the rim of the bunker. Please replace the rake on the outside edge of the bunker

Racket Sports

Pool

When it’s time to relax, kick back by the huge L-shaped crystal blue pool at The River Club. The club’s vacation-like atmosphere is hard to beat with sand-tinted concrete decking surrounding the pool, accented with matching tables and umbrellas along with some steel sculptured palm trees providing a touch of tropical enchantment. A full service bath house offers towel service, day lockers and showers. Enjoy lunch and your favorite beverages seven days a week on the canopied patio deck or wherever you choose to lounge. Our two year old Cabanas are a great space to rent for a day by the pool.

And for the younger ones, there is the River Club’s spectacular Technicolor Splash Pad with 32 fountains and geysers plus a tot slide. Kids love to tempt and dare the circling buckets above them that thrill and spill at random.
