Thinking About Living in River Run Golf Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands River Run Golf Club and the surrounding Eastern Shore — Ocean City Corridor golf market.
River Run is a gated golf community in Berlin, about five miles from Ocean City, built around a Gary Player-designed, par-71 course that the club itself describes as the community's primary recreational amenity. The River Run Community Association (riverruncommunity.org) governs a genuinely gated neighborhood of single-family homes, townhomes and condos, organized into distinctive sections -- Lakeview, Riverfront, Creekfront, Golf Course and Landscape View homes -- with HOA fees covering the security gate, common-area and road maintenance, a pool, tennis courts, a health club and a recreation facility. Golf club membership is a separate, optional purchase (single or family membership) rather than something that comes automatically with the address, though the course is described as the community's central amenity and many residents do join.
Golf & Course
The par-71, Gary Player-designed course includes a driving range, putting green and an on-site restaurant. Specific yardage and year of opening were not confirmed from a first-party source this session.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Golf membership (single or family) is optional for River Run residents and is purchased separately from HOA dues; it is not automatically bundled with a home purchase, though the course is central to the community's identity and marketing.
