River Bend YMCA Golf Course

Course is continuing to upgrade and maintain. Always seems to be in good shape.

I enjoyed putting on these greens!

Very consistent. Fun course and worth my drive from south Charlotte to try out

Greens were about as good as you can find anywhere and perfect shape. Traps were raked and in great condition as well (plenty of sand in them).

Overall, due to recent rain, the course was path only but even with the moisture, fairways were not soggy at all. Course drains pretty well.

The course layout was easy to follow as a first timer. Very few blind shots overall. The course is not very friendly in its setup for seniors or women. The tee boxes for women were often just 5 yards ahead of the senior tees. Both setup meant that a good drive still left 150 yards or more to the green. I would recommend building some tee boxes to make the course more friendly to seniors and women the course handled the heavy rains from earlier in the week very well. The greens were excellent.

Great condition and some of the best greens around

Not long but sone testing holes..

Greens always challenging.

Even though River Bend has increased their prices recently (like almost every course in the country) this is still one of the best values you can find. The greens are the best you will find anywhere. It doesnt matter where you look, the greens here are better. They are so smooth and quick. The rest of the course is in good shape as well. The fairways and tees are just starting to come in and green up. The layout is challenging and interesting enough to keep your interested and keep your attention. The staff in wonderful. Very friendly and unlike many places in golf, act like they are glad to have you there. If you are within an hour drive and can get here I would highly recommend this round. I will say it stays relatively busy, so if you play on the weekend, be ready for a pretty slow round.

We take an hour drive for this nice course. Great conditions a and a pleasant layout. The greens are awesome, good size and rolling perfect. As well the fairways are in great shape. We have seen the way they work the greens and the sand traps and was nothing less than Hilton Head resort... Maybe a little more pride!

Thanks!

Beautiful golf course! Very nice layout!! Greens are perfect, fairways, bunkers, tee boxes are great! Nice clubhouse, golf merchandise, snack bar, sandwiches, drinks, driving range , putting practice green, great staff of people working there. Very enjoyable golf course to play! Highly recommend to anyone who plays the game of golf…

Hands down the best course in CC. Great value for the money for a course that is meticulously maintained and improved on. A must play for any golf enthusiast of any level!

Riverbend is an excellent layout for golfers of all skill levels. All their staff are super friendly and make you feel welcomed. Multiple tees accommodate everyone. Greens are excellent. The miniverdi grass protects against unrepaired ball marks and roll great. Fairways are coming in nicely from the winter. Play here if you get the chance

Course was in good shape for early in the season. The greens were terrific!

Love this course. The greens are always in such nice shape. Friendly staff also. Cannot go wrong for the money, great value.

This course is Shelby is a real gem. Nicely maintained, almost perfect greens and a fun, challenging layout. Some complain that hole 8 isn't fair, but I think it still works. Phil and his team in the shop are friendly and can-do. I highly recommend.
