Good value!
Greens were cut shorter than they have been and were sanded, making them a little faster than they have been. They were also holding the ball a little better then they have been. Fairway grass is looking better. Great course for the money.
Always good
Riverbend is always enjoyable to play. Greens are immaculate and fairways are better than most in the area. Prices are reasonable making it one of the best values as well. Will be playing there as often as possible.
Challenging course for the average golfer
Fairway grass needs some more warm weather. Greens are in good shape, but do not hold the ball well. Greens are medium speed.
Good but slooooow
Greens were fantastic. Course and layout very good . Staff friendly. 4:40 min for. 2 some to play 18. We were stuck behind a tourney, but nearly 5 hours ......Otherwise fantastic course !
First time
First time playing for the price it’s a good round. Greens were in good shape, held well and rolled true. Starting to green up in the fairways. Got a great deal on Golf Now
Always good
Riverbend is always good, I like playing there. Greens are fast and firm. Fairways are just starting to green up. Wish I played better but that’s not the courses fault!
River Bend YMCA Golf Club, Shelby, NC
First time playing River bend YMCA course in 3-4 years. Website states that they have the best greens in the Foothills. They may be right, as these are some of the best greens I seen anywhere.
Wind was 15 -20 mph, making scoring difficult. Fairways 3.5/5, Greens 5/5, layout 4/5, traps 4.5/5, Clubhouse/staff 5/5, since due to the Covid-19 virus situation, interaction was limited, so gave best score. Round was pre-purchased online. Overall, I give a 4.25/5 for the golf course, with the greens being the highlight. I can't speak to the off course amenities.
Greens were in great conditions ! There is a couple holes being repaired . Over all great course easy to navigate
Course review
Overall a great course. Loved the layout. Great shape from tee to green. Greens rolled great and were in great shape. Were doing some work in a couple of places but did not affect play or overall aesthetics of the course. Can't wait to go back.
Fun round
Course was wet and cart path only. Thin grass in fairways and tee boxes. However, greens were great. Fun round as always.
Worth the drive
First off the staff her was exceptional and accommodatingThe price was very affordable and the course was in great shape for this time of the year ESPECIALLY THE GREENS.They were like carpet. I will be back
