River Marsh Golf Club
Hyatt Regency at Chesapeake Bay
Cambridge, Maryland

If golf is art, get ready for a masterpiece in Maryland at the River Marsh Golf Club, located at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa and Marina on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

Keith Foster describes the course: "The River Marsh Golf Club provides golfers a secluded haven to enjoy golf as it's meant to be played -- with classic styling, wide fairways, sculpted bunkers, generous greens and tees to reward and challenge all levels of players."

The Maryland golf course has two finishing holes destined to be some of the region's most talked-about. The 17th is a par 3 that stretches 200 yards from the tips. Awaiting the bold player is a dramatic carry over Shoal Creek to a large putting surface guarded by three artfully crafted bunkers. The green is backdropped by majestic trees and a stunning vista of the broad Choptank River that flows into Chesapeake Bay.

As spectacular as the 17th is, it merely sets the table for the truly beautiful 18th. This classic risk/reward hole is reachable in two by big hitters. The Choptank River runs along the hole's left side from tee to green, as does a vast coastal bunker that meanders into the wide fairway at the prime second-shot landing area. Stately oak trees sit sentinel along the right side of the fairway.

With a Sunday pin placement just a few feet from the scenic Choptank River and tucked behind the greenside bunker, resort guests will get a chance to experience the thrill of playing one of the finest finishing holes in golf.

River Marsh Golf Club opened in 2002.
