Golf

NorthRiver Yacht Club offers one of the finest golf experiences in Tuscaloosa and the greater Southeast region — where natural beauty meets championship design and exceptional amenities.

Our signature 18-hole, par 71 course gracefully winds through rolling terrain and mature woodlands, offering a challenging and picturesque round for golfers of every skill level. Originally crafted by golf legend Gary Player in 1978 and thoughtfully redesigned by Bob Cupp in 1999 and 2015, the course blends classic elegance with modern enhancements.

In 2015, the greens were upgraded to TifEagle Bermuda, delivering an outstanding, year-round putting surface that performs beautifully in our climate. The innovative Better Billy Bunker system ensures smoother, more consisent bunker play — transforming hazards into enjoyable features that elevate the game.

NorthRiver boasts the region's premier practice facilities, including two practice greens, the Wee-Links short course, a first-class short game area, and a state-of-the-art teaching and learning center. Personalized lessons and programming are available for golfers at all levels, from beginners to seasoned competitors.
