River Strand Golf Course

Considered one of the best courses in the Sarasota-Tampa area by the Golf Channel, River Strand is both beautiful and challenging. The course was designed by renowned golf course architect Arthur Hills in 2007. There are 27 holes here that will challenge even low handicap players but all levels of players will enjoy the course. The setting is spectacular, with several holes running along the Manatee River. The design of the course took pains to preserve the existing palm trees and live oaks amongst natural tributaries and estuaries.

What People Say About River Strand

The Golf Channel ranked River Strand 5th in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Sarasota area, which is quite something considering they looked at over 90 courses when coming up with their rankings. They used information compiled by golfers on golfnow.com. That site compliments the course’s generous fairways and precision approach shots and many of the over 150 reviews on the site commented on the pristine quality of the course and its challenging nature. Overall players gave the course 4.5 out of 5 stars.
