River Ridge Golf Club

RR is a fun tract, with a variety of challenging but fair holes. Some tough par 3's and 4's. The greens =held well but were very quick-avoid downhill putts/chips at all costs. The practice range balls are included in the greens fees, which is a nice touch!!

River Ridge has one of the best layouts around. The problem today and recently has been the inconsistency of the greens. The greens are already quick and when they’re top dressed with sand, it makes putting and chipping incredibly difficult.

Love the track and today greens were quick, keep it below the hole if you can. The bunkers had a good amount of sand unlike others in the Raleigh area. Nice practice area with a warm up bag included in price. Definitely keep in the rotation more often.

This the the best golf course in Raleigh that I have played on. It is beautiful, the fairways are perfect as are the greens. I love this place.

Good track, as usual, greens sandy and thin, not playing it’s best at the moment.

Nice round. 5 hrs but that had a lot to do with us. Greens are hard on some holes (meaning balls release a lot) and on some not so much. Fairways are coming in nicely and the whole place should be about right in 4-5 weeks!

Round played at the start of the Corona virus pandemic. No problems getting out. Course looks and plays well. Slow pace today. Otherwise a nice stability in an ever worsening world! TY

As always, River Ridge course conditions were fantastic. The greens were just a little slower than normal, and there were no rakes in bunkers due to COVID-19 concerns (which caused one bad shot), but the course was very enjoyable. My problem is that RR has changed their driving range policy which used to be one of the one of the top reasons I would choose them over other course in the area. They used to offer free range balls, but apparently people would take advantage of that, so now they provide a very small bag of balls for free, which is wonderful, but if you want a larger bag, it's at least $10, which is a bit ridiculous. Most places charge $7 for the same amount of balls. I hope they will consider bringing that price down.

I played here on March 1st, got paired up with fine threesome who provided some local knowledge. Course wasn’t in tip top shape, due to the time of year, and fairways were dormant. But I felt like the course would’ve been better had I played later in year.

Staff was very friendly and helpful, greens fees weren’t over priced, comparable to what I would pay at home for a similar course.

Designer Tom Kite, did a good job of making you think about your tee shot, it’s not Driver on every par 4 or 5. I would enjoy a return trip with better conditions.

Really enjoy playing this course. Fairways are what you’d expect for this time of year, but the greens were in great shape. Course was crowded but the pace was good all afternoon.

River Ridge has always been one of my favorite local courses. They have the course looking really good for it being so early in the golf season. The greens are rolling true, bunkers are well maintained, the fairways are tight but that's to be expected. Looking forward to playing many rounds here this year.

I love this course. I've only been in the region about two years, so I still have a lot of courses left to play, but of those I have, River Ridge is my favorite. Beautiful, challenging course. Greens are always in great shape and somehow, despite the rain and snowmelt we've had around here, the fairways were fine as well. I'm not sure which is their "signature" hole, but I could nominate half a dozen or more, including three of the final four. One change from last year: They used to allow unlimted free range balls -- the only public course I know of that did that. This year, you get a small mesh bag of balls free, but you have to pay if you want to hit more than that. A mid-size bag is $10. That's not a complaint -- the free first bag still puts them ahead of everyone else. Looking forward to my next round (and to playing better).
