Golfing Elegance

The River Club features 18 holes designed by Bob Grimsdell and meticulously maintained in superb condition.

Bob Grimsdell designed a challenging but friendly course. Topographically the land was well suited to its intended purpose, although the soil conditions were not ideal, with much of the ground being rocky. These problems were overcome by assiduous fertilizer application after shallow ripping and raking of the area. Grimsdell’s original design remains largely unchanged.

“My wife and I have personally have been lucky enough to visit Augusta and you are on an equal par with that institution. Please convey our warmest thanks to your staff and fellow Gauteng Seniors' at the River Club for their welcome. I could easily have sat out the rest of my days on that verandah as the sun set! ”
