River Crest Country Club
Membership Programs



Experience
Opened in the spring of 1911, River Crest is Fort
Worth’s oldest and most storied country club.
Those strong roots combine a unique camaraderie,
history, and experience that create an environment in which old
friendships flourish and new friendships begin.

Located five miles from downtown Fort Worth, today’s modern amenities
allow the tenured staff to provide incomparable service and hospitality in
every setting. Members can rest assured, while enjoying a round of golf with
old friends, entertaining guests in the dining room or simply relaxing with
family poolside that the Club is here for you.

Dine
The social and culinary experience at River Crest is as rich
as it is varied. For many Members, the Club provides a home away from
home and a refuge for themselves, family and friends.

Whether you are trying Executive Chef Paul Williams’ newest creation or
indulging in the RCCC tradition of the Fried Chicken Buffet on Tuesdays,

the Club, with its gourmet fare in a neighborly atmosphere, has it all.

We take great pride when we are asked to host our Members’ special moments in life.
Weddings, graduations, baby showers, birthdays and anniversaries are all moments
that deserve the very best care. Your every need is anticipated and served with
pride by our attentive staff so you can sit back and enjoy your special event.

Whether golf or tennis is your
game, or you prefer lounging
poolside with family and friends,
River Crest boasts unrivaled
amenities, endless dining options &
a packed calendar of social events.
From our fully stocked pro shops
to the expertly trained staff, all
who come to play, dine or relax

experience a neighborly
atmosphere, whether you are
looking for an adults only area or a

place to take the family.

Play

JoinWhen considering becoming a member at any club, under-
standing what the club regards as its primary responsibility can
say a lot about the membership. Our mission at River Crest is

“TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST STANDARD OF SERVICE AND HOSPITALITY FOR
ITS MEMBERS WITH CONSISTENCY AND EXCELLENCE”.

To be extraordinary, a club
must be willing and able to
serve Members and guests

with all of their needs.
At River Crest from the
moment you walk in the
door, our passion is on
display. We invite you to
experience for yourself why

River Crest members
affectionately refer to it as

“My Club”.
