River Hills Country Club

The golf : Originally, River Hills was a 9-hole layout designed by Warren Cantrell. Leon Howard came along and added another nine in 1965. Laid out along the Nueces River, River Hills is a short course with water hazards coming into play on almost half the holes. The design features narrow fairways and average-sized greens of medium speed.
The 382-yard par 4 No. 2 is listed as the most difficult, but the next two most difficult rated holes also await you on the front nine. If you can survive the front, the back nine features a few short par 4s and two par 3s that require no more than a wedge or 9 iron.
