Interesting course

Fairways and roughs were in good condition. Sand traps were hard packed sand. Greens were medium speed on the front nine, medium to slow speed on the back nine, held the approach shot and rolled true.

Riverbend is a gem

I have played quite a few courses and I would say this is one of my favorites. Tee boxes are large and relatively flat. The fairways are beautiful. The greens are some of the fastest I’ve played., and well maintained. Bunkers are always in good condition. Carts are nice electric club carts. Practice putting green is big. Nice driving range. Bring your A game!

Overall nothing but good to say.

First Time Playing

Great Course.

Awesome and friendly staff. Patriotic.

Layout, 5 stars. No two holes are the same. You have to think on several regarding placement.

Tee Boxes were in nice shape.

Fairways are narrow,but the first cut is not Goin to punish you too bad. I only hit two but still managed an 85.

Greens were aerated 2 days ago but still ran true.

Small clubhouse, but has most of what one needs.

Golf carts are in good shape.

I wish I lived closer as this is a course to consider joining as a full member.

I look forward to the next round.

Pace of Play is Horrible

Course was in great shape, greens rolled fast but true. Very nice bermuda greens. Tee boxes were in pretty good shape, course layout is nice. Pace of play was horrible. Waited on every tee box for 10+ minutes.

Awesome course for the price!

Great time out. Took my dad out to celebrate Fathers Day. The greens were in great shape and the course played just tough enough for my below average golf ability. Some older guys were holding us up, so the pace of play was slow, but other than that, it was a great experience.

Im a 12 handicap and from the white tees i shot a 75 , course is 6200 yards from white but plays shorter , if you can drive the ball 200 to 250 off the tee straight you will love this place but the greens are super fast so be ready !
