About this course

RiverWinds Golf Club, a public course set against the Delaware River in West Deptford, NJ, offers sweeping vistas that belie its relative youth. While not steeped in century-old traditions, RiverWinds presents a contemporary golfing experience sculpted within the region's unique landscape. Designed by an unknown architect, the course exhibits modern characteristics, featuring generous fairways and strategically placed water hazards that come into play on several holes. The bentgrass fairways are a delight. The greens complexes are known for subtle undulations, rewarding thoughtful approach shots over raw power. While not overly penal from the tee, RiverWinds demands strategic placement to navigate doglegs and avoid riverside breezes that can significantly influence club selection. RiverWinds, while not hosting major championships, serves as a popular destination for local tournaments and everyday play, known for the camaraderie of its regular players. Many members enjoy a quick post round bite at the club's restaurant or bar. It's a valued community asset, offering accessible golf in a scenic setting.

Getting there

RiverWinds Golf Club lies just across the Delaware River from Philadelphia, making Philadelphia International Airport the natural gateway, a straightforward twenty-minute drive southwest into West Deptford. The route follows I-95 south before peeling off into the quieter industrial and residential patchwork of Gloucester County, where the landscape opens slightly and the river's presence becomes felt in the flatness of the terrain. This is accessible, unpretentious golf country - no winding mountain passes or coastal drama, just an easy suburban approach that delivers you to the banks of the Delaware and a layout carved from former farmland with surprising room to breathe.
