RiverWatch Golf Club has a new owner and will soon have a new name!
Steve Smith, owner of Tootsies Orchid Lounge in Nashville, Sligo Marina, and Fishlipz Resort at Pates Ford Marina in Smithville has purchased the Golf Course which is to be renamed “Honky Tonk National Golf Club”, according to a post on the RiverWatch Golf Club Facebook page.
“Due to this change in ownership,” said RiverWatch, “we will be closed for improvements until May. Starting May 1, tee times will be open to the public for 90 days. On Aug. 1 we will become a private membership club.”
Riverwatch is an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Peter Jacobsen and course architect Jim Hardy.
