River Oaks Golf Club lies roughly forty minutes northeast of Halifax Stanfield International Airport, a drive that traces the eastern shore of Nova Scotia through rolling woodland and glimpses of coastal inlets. The route follows Highway 107 into increasingly rural terrain, where the salt air mingles with the scent of spruce and the landscape opens into the quiet, lake-studded countryside around Meaghers Grant. This is golf at the edge of the Maritimes' backcountry - accessible yet removed, where the final turn off the main road signals a transition from the bustle of Halifax into a serene, forested enclave purpose-built for the game.
