Always in good shape!
Riverbend is always in good shape. Tee boxes, fairways, greens, bunkers are all well maintained.
Enjoyed it!
Great round of golf. We drive over an hour to get to this golf course and like it! Very nice layout and great conditions. Nice team at the club house. Totally recommended.
Greens are phenomenal for a public court
Older public municipal type cars with contemporary fast greens that are in excellent condition
Thank you for your feedback on our carts and the condition of our greens. We're delighted to hear you found our greens in excellent shape and we will look into updating our carts to enhance your future experiences.
Greens punched
The greens had recently been punched the first of the week and were sandy. But still putted pretty well. The rest of the course was in really good shape. The greens should be really good again in a week or so. Really good value at less than 40 bucks. Worth an hour drive to play there at that price.
We apologize for any inconvenience the conditions of the greens may have caused, but we're thrilled to hear you found value and enjoyed your overall experience. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, and we hope to see you back soon when the greens are at their best.
Heavy play
Fairways and roughs in good condition, Sand traps needed to be deep raked, light covering of sand over hard pack. Greens rolled true, were medium speed, held the approach shot.
Amazing greens!
Their greens are always amazing and the course is in great shape. They've done a lot of work to increase play in the offseason.
Great Course, Great Value
As a fan of the Chasing Scratch podcast, River Bend became a bucket list course to play; if only to experience first hand the course Mike and Eli hold their final major at each year.
The course did not disappoint. For the price, it’s a gem of a golf course, as everything was in great shape and the greens were immaculate.
It has a great layout that makes for an enjoyable but challenging round of golf. Other than a few holes, even the most novice golfers will find the course enjoyable and playable..
A few notes: you can rent clubs, but they’re not fancy. They don’t allow singles when it’s busy, so I had to purchase two spots. They allow walkers, but I don’t think I’d recommend it. The pro shop is very affordable and the concession stand has basic items for sale like hot dogs, pre made sandwiches, and candy bars.
The greens were amazing. The course layout is playable and can be as difficult or as easy as you want to make it on yourself
Good day at the River Bend
The course has very good greens, course is super shape from tee to green, staff friendly and very nice facilities.
