36 championship holes literally next door. Two world-class courses, two minutes from your room — River Gums is the perfect base for your next golfing weekend on the Murray.
Book direct at River Gums and you're a walk from the first tee at Cobram Barooga — with another six championship courses sitting within easy driving distance of your room.
River Gums is set back among the gum trees — close enough to walk to the first tee, quiet enough to wind down properly once the round's done. We'll point you at the right people at the clubs and hold the right rooms for your group.
Cobram Barooga Golf Club is one of the largest golf complexes in the country — two distinct 18-hole courses set among native bushland on the banks of the Murray. Planning a wider golfing trip? Browse every championship course within an easy drive in our local guide.
The original layout — a traditional, tree-lined parkland course that rewards accuracy off the tee. Mature gums frame every fairway and small greens demand a confident short game.
The newer of the two — wider fairways, dramatic bunkering and bigger, more contoured greens. A modern resort-style layout that suits players of every standard.
Twenty years of golfing guests, distilled into four pieces of advice we wish every visitor knew.
March, April and May are peak conditions — and peak demand. Book your stay six to eight weeks ahead for the dates you want.
Tuesday and Wednesday rounds give you the courses almost to yourself. Quieter, faster pace, better tee times available.
The Murray runs cool in the mornings even in summer. A light jumper for the first nine holes is always a good call.
Make a long weekend of it. Add a third night to wind down by the river — most guests wish they had.
Talk to us about dates, group sizes and the courses you're eyeing. We'll hold the right rooms for your group and point you at the right people at the clubs to sort tee times.
