Great course
Riverbend is one of the nicer courses around. It was not crowded at all and the pace of play was great. The greens were fast but not too fast. The fairways were rolling pure and it was easy to find your ball in the fairway. Would go here many more times.

Fairways and roughs were in good shape. Sand traps were hard packed. Greens held the approach shot, were moderately slow but rolled true.

Veryy Good Condition
Staff at River Bend are friendly and accomodating. Overall condition of fairways and greens is very good. Hole numbers 8 and 17 are very challenging..
Difficulty Somewhat Challenging

Riverbend
Second time playing this course and this tike was better than the first. I went the first time and their greens were very firm and it was hard to get anything to stay on the greens. This time the greens were soft and rolled perfect. This course is always in excellent condition. The course layout is fun but not to hard so it makes it really enjoyable.
