About Us

Are you looking for a golf club to call home? NorthRiver Yacht Club is a premier, private club situated along the banks of beautiful Lake Tuscaloosa in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. NorthRiver offers a gracious lifestyle in a family-centric recreational setting featuring world-class amenities. NorthRiver is owned and operated by Troon, the world's largest golf club management company in the world. We are proud to belong to Troon's distinctive group of private clubs called Troon Privé.

Members and their invited guests enjoy an 18-hole, par 71 championship course that was originally built by Gary Player in 1978, redesigned and then fully renovated in 2015 by Bob Cupp. NorthRiver's tennis center boasts 11 lighted courts, including 4 hydro courts. NorthRiver's golf, tennis and fitness center staff are expert professionals who have been recruited from near and far.

Our Olympic-size pool, complete with cabana service, is the hub of summer activity, while our heated indoor/outdoor pool at the Golf Club, is open year round.

The NRYC Kids Club is a popular spot for on-site childcare services, birthday parties and hands-on craft activities for the little ones.

Expect the best views from anywhere in Tuscaloosa from our lakefront Captain's Cabin, which members frequent by land and lake! We expanded our marina in 2018, so if you are interested in wet slip boat storage rental, we know the perfect place!

Dining and entertaining are always a signature experience with us! Whether you come to enjoy Sunday Brunch, a romantic dinner in the main dining room, a fireside dinner at the Yacht Club, TGIF at the Captain's Cabin, casual fare in the NorthRiver Grille, or an elegant, private event in the legendary Yacht Club venue, NorthRiver is sure to become home to many of your most treasured memories. In February of 2020, we introduced Dining in the Jade, an elevated dining experience offered to a limited number of members each Thursday, Friday and Saturday evening.
