About Riverwood Golf Club

Riverwood Golf Club occupies rolling ground along the Neuse River in Clayton, North Carolina, where the natural contours of the site shape a championship-length layout.

The club offers 27 holes designed by David Postlethwait, which opened in 1997. The dramatic elevation changes and river setting give the course much of its character.

Membership programs are available, and they extend playing privileges to Eagle Ridge, Hedingham and Olde Liberty golf clubs.
