About
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.

The golf outing. Photo submitted by mastergolfer12 on 09/26/2012
What a great day of February golf in the NW!
Pace was awesome and their was actually sun. Things are wet and the windstorm from Sunday brought down a lot of branches but the course was playable. All things considered it was a super day!
Thank you for leaving 4 stars! We love hearing from you and are glad you had a good experience. We would love the opportunity to bump those 4 stars to 5. We hope you will come back soon so we can wow you on your next visit.
Excellent Public Course
Riverbend is an excellent public course for all player skill levels. Even though we have had above average rainfall this winter, the course was well maintained and very playable with just a few trouble spots. The staff is cheerful and positive and the restaurant is an excellent 19th hole to celebrate or commiserate over your golf game.
Wow - Thank you for the five star review! We are happy to have exceeded your expectations. We love hearing from you and are glad you had a great experience. We look forward to having you back again soon!
Was scheduled to play today but the golf course was unplayable.. how I wished I was informed earlier. Very disappointed with Golfnow.

Would not honor paid voucher
It's a sad day for me, I had signed up for the men's club and paid my fee. The membership included 1 free round and 1 free round on your birthday. I used my free round early in the year but they would not honor my bday round on my actual bday because they changed the rules for 2020. It hadn't been a year yet since I joined in March 2019. I spent thousands of dollars here, so much money and time here and to not honor a 20.00 voucher on January 2nd in the middle of winter.. I'll forever take my business else where.
If possible, please reach out to us directly so we discuss your review in more detail.
Don't remember when I played it but wanted to add it to my map
Very over priced for a boring layout...not too much to get excited about here...you have to cross a busy road to get to the range...not worth the money...there are other courses that are a better value.

Riverbend in Winter
The course was in very nice shape for this time of year. The greens had chemicals applied which gave them a nice dark green contrast, making them easy to find. It's a flat course, so it would have been easy to walk. The fairways were firm, giving nice bounce and roll on tee shots.

RIVERBEND ON COLD MORNING
THE COURSE IS IN GREAT SHAPE. A COUPLE OF TEE BOXES NEED HELP. THE GREENS WERE SPRAYED WITH SOMTHING. NEVER SAW A PESTICIDE SIGN TILL BACK NINE. STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS. ALL IN ALL HAD A GREAT TIME.
Wow - Thank you for the five star review! We are happy to have exceeded your expectations. Our playing conditions are very important to us and we are glad you enjoyed them. We look forward to having you back again soon! Until then, take care!
Poor course maintenance...
Nice classic course layout, however, the greenskeeper(s) need to do a better job to maintain the course. Then, again, the management should invest in improving the course such as irrigation, etc. No marshals around to enforce golfers to fix their divots, especially on the greens. Almost every hole, I had to fix at least 5 divots. No matter, thanks GolfNow for the great deal.
