River Bend Country Club

Such a good layout , play here a few times a month , lots of work needed in the conditions , greens are bad. Staff is so friendly and I know it’s not easy for them. They are always inviting and friendly. I feel bad the greens are so bad and lots of work to do. Great place to go and knock it around and have a few pops. I will still support the course even during difficult times. Lee your heads up and I hope improvements are made

We play River Bend when we come down for vacation. Unfortunately the course is in horrendous condition this year. The greens are so bad I didn’t even take my putter out of my bag. No one asked my advice but I would close for the remainder of the year and work on the grounds. Sadly I can’t recommend anyone play here in the near future.

Course layout is good. Staff is friendly. How ever the course conditions from tee to green has gone downhill. Spoty greens, some fast some real slow. Tee boxes are like teeing up in my back yard. Lots of work needs to be done.

Staff is amazing and you can tell a lot of work is being put in. The greens have a ways to go but the fairways and tee boxes are quickly improving! Keep it going!

Pace of play was great as the course was not busy. The staff were all friendly. The course needs some help, especially the greens. The layout is pretty good though.

The course can use some improvements but its overall a great golf course!

Course is great. But tee boxes, and greens need some extra love.

One temporary green looks like it will never recover. The course was in decent condition - fairways where good greens were good but the rough was ridicules.

Everyone is always courteous at the pro shop ! River Bend is a NewBern treasure!

Greeted by Twila who was terrific. We loaded clubs and began play. Hardly anyone else on the course so pace of play was great. Greens were really slow and a couple were bare in spots. Biggest problem was the rough which was so long we actually couldn’t see the ball unless we were standing right on top of it. Made for a really frustrating round and we probably will not return unless the rough has been cut to normal length.

The worst condition I’ve ever seen in. Greens are none existent. The ground keeps need to be fired! The owner is clearly does not need to own a golf course yet alone three. All three are the worst courses in eastern North Carolina.

The course has come a long way, the greens are still a work in progress, but great improvement. The lady at the front was amazing, I was by myself and able to get out early and had a great time! Thank you!

Enjoyed the layout. Tee boxes need work and several greens are fried/full of goose stuff

I absolutely love this course. The layout for me is

challenging enough as I am a mid range golfer.

Every time I play here I enjoy it more. The staff in the club house are very friendly as are the dining area staff.

Excellent place to play…
