Rating 71.4

The Riverbend Golf Complex sits along the Green River in Kent Valley, Wash. Owned and operated by the City of Kent, the complex offers a championship, 18-hole course and a mini-golf course. The 18-hole course is one of the busiest in the state with more than 65,000 rounds played on it annually. The golf course sprawls across a relatively flat landscape, making it easily walkable. Though it may not be hilly, that doesn't mean it's trouble free. There are more than 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout and three lakes come into play as well. The layout is player friendly, with enough variety to appeal to players of all skill levels.

Zero Complaints

After playing golf for 40 years I finally made my first hole in one. So zero complaints about the course. 5 stars all round. That I was bending down to pick up my tee when it went on the hole and missed it while the other guys I played with saw it go in - priceless 🤦‍♂️.

The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. The bunkers could use more sand; they had some hard spots. Recommend avoiding bunkers :) very enjoyable day.

Played 36 and it was very nice.

The crew at Riverbend was very accommodating with my request for a 2nd round and very helpful with the cart needs.

Course is in pretty good, and is starting run faster on the greens. Still a few wet spots, but not bad for this time of year. Greens are in very nice shape for the amount of play they get, I just wish people would do a better job of fixing their ball marks.

Needs the restaurant up and going, no options for food and drinks right now, but I see that is changing soon.

Everything but Pace

We played two Saturdays in a low and everything was fine but pace was terrible. We were waiting 10 to 20 minutes for every holes. There were marshall carts often but I don't think they commented the groups super slow. Our golf was miserable because of the pace. I suggest this course put a note 8 minutes rule. Thank you.
