About
The Riverbend Golf Complex sits along the Green River in Kent Valley, Wash. Owned and operated by the City of Kent, the complex offers a championship, 18-hole course and a mini-golf course. The 18-hole course is one of the busiest in the state with more than 65,000 rounds played on it annually. The golf course sprawls across a relatively flat landscape, making it easily walkable. Though it may not be hilly, that doesn't mean it's trouble free. There are more than 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout and three lakes come into play as well. The layout is player friendly, with enough variety to appeal to players of all skill levels.

The golf outing. Photo submitted by mastergolfer12 on 09/26/2012
Narrow fairways, but nice course
Nice round, although it was very slow. The fairways are tidy, and narrow. Greens played good, course was in good shape. Nice practice facilities and food was good. Staff excellent, all in all this was a fun course with some challenges, mostly flat easy to walk.
Highly recommend the practice facility they had everything available. We rode, but if played again would walk. Although the weather was hot, and it was slow kind nice to ride
Great Condition, Great Course
The course is in great condition, and the staff were very good. I played 18 holes with a cart.
I would highly suggest this course.

Hard, fast greens
Course is in great shape. Nice seeing some sand in the bunkers finally! Played with some fun dudes on a great weather day!
Good Value
As far as munis go, this is a good option. It is not difficult, flat/walkable and in excellent condition. Can get a little backed up, so an early tee time is your best bet.
Great course but the tee times were so packed together at one point we had 3 groups on the same tee box.
Springtime Condition
Played a little wet, but it rained the past couple of days. Course is in good condition. Greens ran true, first cut nicely mowed.
Decent
I have played Riverbend more times than I care to admit. The current conditions are pretty poor. Tee boxes have numerous bare spots and are placed on sloped areas, making setting up for tee shots a little more difficult.
In addition to the tee boxes, numerous areas on the fairway have bare spots or unfixed divots. I have seen this course in much better condition, but as of late, it's not the best. I'd rather go play Auburn at the moment.
Hopefully something can be done to get it in better shape.
Bunkers need work!
Great weather day. Pretty fast play. 4 hours 5 minutes, in what turned out to be a 3 some after 9 holes. Need Bunkers attention. Hardly any sand in most if not all.
Fast round
Just a hair over 4 hours, great for a Sunday and a nice day. Only negative comment- bunkers are not good. Hardly any sand in them.
By contrast I played Allenmore on Saturday and it was 5 hours.
Riverbend Golf Complex
The Course was in very good condition. The pace of play was perfect, no waiting on any holes and no group pushing behind us. Enjoyed the day.
