About this course

River Greens Golf Club sits in the rolling farmland of east-central Ohio, near the small community of West Lafayette in Coshocton County. Designed by Jack Kidwell and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies terrain typical of the region—gently rolling with mature hardwoods framing many holes and seasonal water features that come into play on several holes. Kidwell, an Ohio-based architect who designed numerous daily-fee and semi-private courses across the Midwest during the 1980s and 1990s, worked within the natural contours of the property to create a layout accessible to recreational golfers while offering enough strategic interest for better players. The routing takes advantage of elevation changes and wooded corridors, with several holes playing along or across creeks and wetland areas. Greens are typically moderate in size with subtle undulation, and bunkering is straightforward rather than severe. The course serves primarily as a public facility for golfers in the Coshocton and Tuscarawas County areas, offering a traditional parkland experience in a quiet rural setting. Conditioning and maintenance reflect the standards of a regional daily-fee operation, and the layout remains a steady option for local play and outings in a part of Ohio where golf courses are spread across small towns and agricultural valleys.

Getting there

The journey to River Greens Golf Club begins at Akron-Canton Airport (CAK), roughly forty-five minutes northeast through the gently rolling farmland of eastern Ohio. The drive traces a quiet descent through Coshocton County, where state routes give way to narrower country roads that follow the bends of the Tuscarawas River valley. As the landscape softens into wooded bottomland and open pasture, the final approach reveals the club tucked discreetly along the riverbanks near West Lafayette - a serene pocket of golf architecture far removed from the bustle of Ohio's urban corridors.
